[Albion] New deals for three; five released

[oldboyroy]

Thank you to all the above players and wish them well in whatever they do Bobby always a legend Calde the same shame he isn't offered another role within but onwards we go and a few signings to bolster a great squad already in place

Surprised that Casper Ankergren has stayed on.

Probably an assistant to Roberts as goalkeeping coach?

 

[peterward]

Have to admit to being surprised. I thought he was terrific when he came back in a couple of weeks ago, given how long he was out for. I guess if he wants to start every week he's had to move on.

likewise, would obviously have been released if we went up, but at this level, with his experience and passion he was definitely worth another year, even if as back up, he can still cut it at this level....... very surprised, unless of course they've already lined up his replacement?

 

[Guinness Boy]

I thought GG might get one more year. No other real surprises. Calde will always be loved and welcome any time at the club. As Orlandi said in his video message Calde likes "running and football" so I'm sure will get a place at a local-ish team. I genuinely hope he doesn't end up at the #twats mind you.

If you love them, let them go

I expect #BringBackCalde will be on twitter before long

Greer may well have been a case that the club would have retained him, but he wanted regular football which they could not offer.

Would not be surprised if he ended up at Rangers for a year.

Question has to be asked: how many goalkeeping COACHES do we need?

Correct answer: ONE

 

[Luke93]

To me, this implies both Goldson and Dunk are staying, with another CB coming in as 4 are needed within the squad.

Thanks to all the players leaving though. Especially Greer and Calderon. They were all loved by the fans, and you've both been magnificent.

 

[peterward]

Gutted for GG and Calde, love them both.

this, though tbh Calde is probably not good enough a player anymore, though Greer most certainly is imho

 

[symyjym]

Lets hope there is a role for one or two at the club; BZ would be very knowledgeable i would imagine!

Yep, his career is over but his footballing brain would be an asset at the Academy.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

I'm guessing there is no place for sentiment in the drive for Premier League football, personally I think they'll be more news on Calde or, as is very possible, he wishes to return to his homeland?

 

[Monkey Man]

GG's been a great professional and has captained us through a brilliant era for the club. Hope he finds a team where he can start every game.

Thanks for the memories and good luck with whatever comes next. A future manager maybe.

For sure, GG has a few good seasons left in him North of the border, if that's where his heart lies.

 

[peterward]

Surprised that Casper Ankergren has stayed on.

totally, he's crap

 

[Aristotle]

I'm really sad about Calde. I was hoping he'd stay here forever and eventually we'd build a big statue in his honour - Christ the Redeemer style.

Please someone with photoshop skills make this happen.

 

[Uncle Buck]

For sure, GG has a few good seasons left in him North of the border, if that's where his heart lies.

First season up for them, he is a current Scottish international, it seems a reasonable fit.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Thanks for everything Gordon, I've really enjoyed watching you, you've been class for us. It most certainly was NOT a step back lol!

 

[Peter Grummit]

1 year deal for Bruno.

Is this only the players out of contract as no mention of those under contract being placed on the transfer list or that we would accept offers for. I wouldnt disagree with any of those decisions taken.

Question has to be asked: how many goalkeeping COACHES do we need?

Correct answer: ONE

I've no idea if Roberts is the only goalkeeping coach at the club / academy, but there must be in excess of 30 keepers at the club, through the age groups and various teams.
