    Good. Means we keep the entire fee.

    He’s passionate but limited. Waves his hands a lot but rarely does much himself.

    Now is the time to sell if we can get a fee. At best he should be a substitute going forward.

    Hmmm seems strange..... Perhaps he doesn't like being offered around and wants to open up his options?

    Funny how yesterday's heroes count for **** all in the end.. This is why I understand why players have no loyalty either... They're fully aware early on in their career.

    He would leave with thanks from me. Did well overall for us and showed great spirit and fight for the cause. Will be well remembered

    He was a great player for us over a number of seasons, and always a top professional. He played a more limited role in the past two seasons (injuries/lack of fitness) and it does seem the right time for him to take his next challenge.

    Fans can be so fickle though. If we want our players to believe in our club, we have to show the same loyalty.

    Defo we've had too many with the wrong attitude that didn't fight for every inch over the years. I do think it's time though because last season he was poor....

    You could never accuse him of not trying but I thought he was a bit of a loose cannon. Had a tendency to give away silly fouls in and around the box.

    What we needed at the time, fighter who had passion for the club. Type who has passion no matter where or who he's playing for.

    Ill remember him as a top player during a negative period.

    Hope he stays, would like to see him as cover now and again.

    Just Gayle to go and there'll be no-one left to actually hate at the club.

    Apart from Shelvey, for some.

    How can you hate those guys?! They've each produced a number of decent performances and have shown ability. Ritchie is ****ing gash, far too mouthy and a waste of a space in the team. Contributes nothing and is second only to Yedlin as a penalty waiting to happen.
