    Gone contact terminated.

    Not good news just before the start.

    <yikes> ‘The Club refuse to comment any further’

    Liked NML but very inconsistent and often lacked end product. Probably off to Boro

    Not surprised. We can't use and don't need 5 wingers. See my comment on the summer signings thread after Ojo's signing.

    Just hope it's because he wants to go closer to home and not due to problems with his baby and wife.

    Just read that. Must be quite serious for that reaction.
    Also states the termination was NOT mutual.

    Apparently Annis Abraham's site - take with a health warning - is he failed drug tests and even caught dealing.

    It will all come out in the wash but to be honest I think he hasn’t been up to his best form the past couple of seasons. Hope he is okay and finds another club but it’s another off the wage bill and hopefully someone else can now come in.

    Not always in the game, he was brilliant when brilliant, but he was exciting to watch! Always felt he was a mystery man! :emoticon-0103-cool:

    It amazes me that people with the world at their feet, getting paid a fortune for doing a job most of us PAY to do, would risk it all by selling drugs and/or smoking the funny-fags behind the bike sheds.
    What an utter utter tw@
    (Assuming the rumours are true of course!!!)

    No smoke without fire surely? This is a professional club with highly paid professionals advisors so suggest the decision is legally watertight.
    As said above how can a new father, highly paid professional chuck it all away - if as bcfcredandwhite is correct- and I doubt he’s far off the mark.

    The club has said it will not make any more comments in this matter...WTF? The paying fans have a right to know what this is about, they are investors in the club...not Masky though! :emoticon-0103-cool:]

    What rights do we have in this? None. We are paying customers not shareholders/investors.

    We would like to know what has happened but the matter is between the club, NML and their respective legal advisors and, as such, is subject to their privacy rights.

    Nothing to stop speculation though. <whistle>

    Whatever the reasons, the City players must have known about this - there's no way they wouldn't have asked questions about his absence. We can only commend them for collectively keeping their counsel and getting on with the job until it was sorted one way or another.

    They're a close knit group and would have been aware of the circumstances to the extent that the club would need to take decisive action to maintain credibility. Cancelling a legal contract is not a minor matter and it looks like the decision was carefully considered and done on sound legal advice.

    Could be behind last Saturday's subdued and negative performance. Now down to Harris' man management and motivational skills for this weekend.

    Au contraire mon frère, we are emotionally involved with our football team, Masky has been following Cardiff City since the sixties. They ask us to be as one with the side, and we have a right to get answers! They can’t switch us off as and when...Masky demands answers! :emoticon-0103-cool:
