If I was tarting myself to the division above I would do a long puff piece interview about how good I am when i am in form (and I'm in form btw)

Just look at Shandon Baptiste. He's now 26 and so should be peaking but he's a relatively unknown but well remunerated non playing footballer. How will he look back on his career achievements?
I bet he wishes he's had more moments like that goal against West Ham
Even if we're in the Championship?I'd be amazed if Murphy is here next season. But delighted!
Murphy may be offered a new contract.
We may think that all those fans chanting his name now we will make him feel welcome and wanted.
However these are the same fans that were chanting “What a waste of money” last season
He will go where he can get the best deal for him and his family, a footballers life is a short one (playing wise) and fans are so fickle
'Scouts from Southampton, West Brom, QPR, Sunderland and Hull along with Minnesota were present at the Kassam Stadium, with the 29-year-old out of contract at the end of the season.'Newcastle ace Jacob Murphy's bruv Josh sparks transfer fight with hot EFL form
JOSH MURPHY’S red-hot form has attracted interest from five Championship clubs and the MLS. The twin brother of Newcastle ace Jacob scored and set up two in Oxford United’s 5-0 thumping…www.thesun.co.uk
According to the article some interesting teams were watching Murphy on Saturday
Just picking through the thread and saw this - as far as I can remember, it was fairly low level booing. In spite of a disappointing season and a half effectively, most people wanted him to come good and from Christmas onwards we saw initial glimpses that indicated there was a still a real player in there.Fantastic to see a player who was being boo'd by his own fans not long ago, getting a standing ovation around the entire ground today.
Whatever happens with him for the remainder of this season, or whether he gets another contract, it's just great on a human level to see a guy who has openly spoken about his mental health struggles get such validation.
New Era certainly passing his details around as becoming available. It’s not going to be an easy deal for us to do.

Can I have the key?A little one I came up with
Murphy's on fire your defence is terrified
Murphy's on fire your defence is terrified
Na na na na na na
Or something really easy.
There's only one josh Murphy one josh Murphy walking along singing a song walking in a Murphy wonderland
Or when Murphy goes running down the wing la la when Murphy goes running down the wing la la la when Murphy goes running down the wing the East stand fans stand up and sing we all know that Ruben going to score
I'll shut the door on my way out
E minor I thinkCan I have the key?
I posted about this higher up the thread, but in a word, yes. It’s not a slight on him, his agent, Oxford United, anyone to acknowledge this. He’s not a kid. He doesn’t need to think about where going next is best for building his career - most of it is behind him and he has one final big payday to bag. What’s best for him will be maximising his income while he is in a position to do so.Anyone who has seen Murphy play recently would be amazed if clubs higher up the food chain weren't interested - and of course they can offer more money than we can. But (and it may be wishful thinking!) he has been there and done that - he signed for Cardiff for £11m and by all accounts didn't really cope with the pressure that situation put him under very well. Would he want to be put under the same pressure again? He seems happier, more confident, more settled - would he risk that again?
