James Tomkins retires

[Fauxstralian]

Will be turning 36 on Saturday
Left for Palace as Bilic wouldn’t guarantee him a start
Always thought that was a mistake on his part

What was that argy bargy all about?

Likely the mutton chops

I was looking at his stats just recently, spent about the same length of time with us (as a first team player) and Palace, but hardly played for them, so probably just happy picking up his money. Suspect he is worth a few mil in retirement.

Anyone wished him luck yet?

Wasn't there a story going about before he left that he was told to change his agent if he wanted a new deal ?

I might have the wrong player but thought it was Tomkins

A decent prospect but somewhat injury prone and his career never really hit the heights it could have.

Another useless over rated cսnt that sucked money out of my pocket!

I should know as I was there anyway, cheers Honky.

One of our academy products, so wish him well.

That was the FA Cup game v Everton - the one where Adrian scored in the penalty shoot out. There was a defensive mix up and it all kicked off. Apparently they were mates and next door neighbours, as well. Tomkins left the following season and i was shocked as he seemed to be west ham through and through.

Hardly went on to have the most stellar career, did he.

Never really a first-choice CB for Palace.
