I think from his point of view that's fair enough but from City's point of view why on earth would we let an under contract player leave when we're desperately short in his position? This is around the time he played a big role in that win at Sunderland. The club would've been crucified if they let him leave then.
Wonder if Acun will use his ties with Fortuna Sittard again this summer. There’s one player in particular who I rate called Loreintz Rosier. @HFFP will back me up as he was a decent player when he was at Estoril. Seems like the kind of midfielder we lack and one Walter would have at the base of his midfield.
As you will know mate it is fairly normal for this to happen in this way. He and his agent would have known for weeks, if not months, he is not getting a new deal and that is how it is done. The list is produced and made public long after agents and players are made aware they aint staying. If Acun or Tan do not want to ring each player personally to wish them well that is their call. The manager should be the one doing that in my opinion but we dont have one. When releasing academy players I would always do it face to face where possible and one of them at Featherstone went outside crying only for his dad to return trying to fill me in. Maybe they heard old man Docherty was a bit of a wild one?
His god father buried my Dad in Cyprus (big City fan) earlier this year. He told me how much Greg loved it here and if I wanted anything he would put me in touch with him. Seems a real shame but he is probably better off going to another club and playing week in week out. You only get one career as a footballer and wastign it as a squadie somewhere will lead to regrets I'm sure. Although Scott Carson seems happy enough!
