What about joining Bristol City instead of Blackpool after we accepted an offer?
Ultimately I think he knows he's not good enough to hold down a starting place in a PL team and chose both times to play regularly in the Championship instead.

A few years have passed since then, if he is still up to it why did no Championship side come knocking for him when he left Ipswich? or in the transfer window in January.

Pitman is a legend and is the highest scoring Bournemouth player in my lifetime so hard not to be sentimental about the guy.
I don't think he was really up to Championship football let alone Premier League football. Unfortunately while if delivered the right ball he would be able to finish at any level, his physicality just wasn't there. He didn't have the explosive pace we needed in the Championship and he doesn't have the stammina to defend from the front in the Premier League.
I always thought that Grabban was the guy who had everything needed from a striker but couldn't score, Brett had nothing but couldn't miss. Wilson had the best of both.
