Thinking about this a bit more, the last player to leave where i was really disapointed was when Neil Alexander went to Rangers halfway through the season. We were top six at the time.
I had seen him save a penalty against Plymouth in a January midweek game, flew home in the morning and when I got in my car at the airport TalkSport announced he had left.
I was gutted. |  |

Darren Ambrose for me too.
I knew we were in administration at the time and would be selling off most of the team that took us to 5th in the Prem, but the consolation to me was we had some really talented kids who we could base the team on and start again.
Then we sold Ambrose for just 500k - who I thought had the most potential.... :-( |  |

Are you telling me you weren't heart broken when a guy with 10 first team appearances was sold to a lower league club? |  |

He did have most potential. Best young player I've seen come through at Portman Road.
We sold him so we could pay the wages that month. Looking back our administrator was somewhat more aggressive is liquidating our assets than others have been. |  |

Rod Belfitt. Although it all worked out rather well.
Actually Butcher; it signalled the end of an era, and at the time it seemed so, not just with the benefit of hindsight. | | | |

In no order:
Dozzell. In those days players couldn't leave on Bosmans, so although he was out-of-contract with us we could still demand a transfer fee for him. I remember waiting all Summer hoping he'd eventually sign his contract, but then the Spurs news broke. Gutted.
Taricco. Obviously. Such a wonderful player and the heartbeat of our side. What was really irritating was our scout (whose name escapes me) had moved to Spurs a little bit before this and must have waxed lyrical about the lad. Still, we had some good times.
Sixto Peralta. We had him on loan from Inter, and to me he was the highlight of our relegation season. Really classy and there were news stories suggesting that maybe we would be able to sign him the following season. But then it seems the harsh economic realities set in and we weren't able to. I'd resigned myself to a few of the senior players leaving, but not being able to rebuild was a blow. |
I believe you are thinking of Charlie Woods? |  | | |

Been following Town since 1992 and definitely Taricco for me.
I'll never forget his goal against Norwich in front of the North Stand in 1997.
The clips only show his finish but it was the culmination of about 20 passes of total football that took their defence apart. |  | | |

I suppose pick one from Mariner, Brazil or Muhren as this signalled that it was all over.
Modern day Tarrico and Shefki.
Actually I reckon the answer should be Sir Bobby Robson. |  |

I've been disappointed about departures since, but even though we gained promotion the next season, that one broke my heart! | | | |

Was Naylor for his movie star looks too? |
Naylor was a really good looking guy.
One day I will show you a pic I have of him and me together. |  | | |

My then teenage daughter had a crush on him. In Milan we were staying in the same hotels as the players. Being the responsible parent I am I gave her some money to get some drinks in and when she saw Naylor she almost dropped the tray. | |

Can't say I ever fancied the guy myself, but he was certainly an underrated contributor in my opinion. |  |

Did you know that Talbot got tapped up in the tunnel before the 78 Cup Final? |
I had heard that, but never had it confirmed. Has Talbot confirmed it himself? Shocking, if so. [Post edited 17 Aug 2017 21:33]

Yes, disgraceful, but his departure left the midfield clear for the Dutch boys, so no great disaster for ITFC.
Good all-action box to box player though, Tablet. | | | |

Marcus Stewart, who's scoring got me supporting Ipswich, and Martijn Reuser leaving definitely tugged at the heart strings. I still hold a little resent against Joe Royle for falling out with Reuser.
Kelvin Davis leaving is pretty close too. Really thought we had a good thing going with him. |  | | |
