Why "arrogant"? I didn't/don't see any arrogance in his decision/attitude. He felt (probably rightly if he wanted to prove himself at a higher level) that it was time to move on, he's not slagged Southend off, moaned about late payment of wages or anything.
OBL have to agree - He put in a really good 3 year shift with us and earned the right to test the waters from a higer level elsewhere. In fact he could have gone in the summer of 2012 but chose not to. But generally after being a very consistent player for us you can't really blame him for looking at the higher echelons. it certainly just beats me as to why he hasn't got a new team at any level. maybe you can say the likes of ipswich or mk dons let him down by pursuing others at the last minute but i cannot see the argument that sean has somehow betrayed the blues. possibly likely his advisor has priced him out of a move and if this is the case then this would annoy me as i think players should take more resposibility for the decisions and actions. i'd certainly take him back with us if that opportunity was viable. no way has he backstabbed, caused havoc, whined or moaned. Oh OBL, why the Old? Surely it should be YBL - young blue lady.
