Four players released

[Da Man Clay]

We all know what Brighton fans is like so I wouldn't be too worried yet. Id very much doubt that Turinezo has gone at this early stage.

Re: Re: Four players released

Certainly not heard about that one, hmmm

I hope it is not true.

Race, does that mean the others are confirmed? Don't feel the need to reply if it is not your place to.

i so wanted El Turi to play for the stripes

and WTF, Nicholas? f*** sake McGhee

Wilkins is now the first team coach, so he will have a say in this. It's not all down to McGhee ...

 

[dunno]

So we are down to CKR (unless he goes), Robinson and Gatting -having got rid of LK, McPhee, McCammon and El Turi in the last 6 months

I cannot understand the Nicolas decision if that is true - Chippy was awful last year and we are not exactly overrun with decent central midfielders FFS

]Releasing big mac is a mistake although MM was never going to swallow his pride on that one, shit as he may be he will do well in league 1 as shown with brizzle.

Is it Bollocks. Big Mac has consistently shown himself to be shit. I don't normally deal in absolutes but he was shit for us, Shit by all accounts for Bristol city, shit for Millwall and will be shit even if he plays for Dorothy Stringer.

If he got a deal with us, I'd be tempted to get my football boots out of the loft.

Nicolas is the only one of those I'd question and like others have said, if Dodd is unfit next year, what a waste he has turned out to be.

I hope that Alexis has found another club rather than was actually let go. All the others fair leaving fair enough, although a choker what it has cost us for Turienzo. Good business that one Mr Knight, with friends like Liam Brady who needs enemies.

Of those staying they can all do a job in Div 1, I juts hope they are being paid a wage that relates to the division.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

We don't know if this is even true yet. There's been no official word from the club. But IF it is I think this is ok. Carpenter will be fine next season in league 1 and Nicolas has never impressed me. McPhee was always going to go; McCammon is laughably bad and Turienzo was a mistake. Not sure about giving Dodd another contract though if that's what happened.

I would doubt that he was "released" he probably turned down our contract.

Big mac is a poor mans gifton noel williams and at this stage we are a very poor man so should have kept him. MM has been banging on about a big target man striker and although I agree Big mac is a shit footballer he could do a job at league one level.

People thought Chris Iwelumo was shit (I wasnt one of them) but he's gone down a level and was one of the top scorers in the league this year because 1. he puts himself about 2. because hes big and strong.

My main point is that big mac could do a job next year and I think MM must know that because he thought he could do a job at championship level, the reason we have released him is because he has fallen out with MM IMO.

If we have a replacement lined up then I will stand corrected but you can bet that at christmas people will be saying " we STILL need a target man" and big mac will be doing a job for some mid table side in league one.

I'd have been very surpised if Chippy was released - McGhee wouldn't drop him last season in a higher division, so there was little chance of him being shown the door.

Think he might be revived a bit in League 1 anyway :fingerscrossed:

 

[dunno]

I would doubt that he was "released" he probably turned down our contract.

Your are probably right - although if he had played more often last season (like he should have) he might have been more inclined to sign up!

I don't disagree with releasing McPhee and McCammon - but who in god's name are we going to sign as replacements (probably at the 11th hour as usual!)

 

[Superphil]

Can we beleive any of this without an official announcement?

I'll wait a bit before I get or

 

[dunno]

Gargan........

another youth team player like Robinson and Gatting before him. We need experience as well

 

[1066gull]

Kaney could do a job

No, seriously, he probably would.

 

[Les Biehn]

If Nicolas has gone for whatever reason I hold MM responsible. If he hasn't then I will say well done to MM for realising his mistake and managing to retain a player he shouldn't have f***ed around.

Lets hope so, no doubt he WAS a quality player. Lets hope dropping down a league will help him.

Try telling McGhee that.
