NRC, Pires and Carew amongst Ten Players Released

[john e]

Good, at last getting rid of some dead wood,
For all you guys that lament the exit of NRC let's see the quality of clubs that come in for him,
Someone said spurs, are you having a laugh, my gues is  Wolves, certainly no better

[cdbearsfan]

I'm surprised that Reo-Coker has walked out when we don't even know who the manager is. Of the side that made the 2010 Youth Cup Final, I thought Ellis Deeney was the most promising. Surprised he's off... hope he doesn't come back to haunt us.

[PeterWithe]

Apparently he didn't like living in Bham, I hope he fares better with the bright lights of Wolverhampton.

QPR?

Reo Coker is rumoured to be on his way to QPR. Genuinely liked him, and hope he goes on to have a good career. I would guess living in Brum meant he put a premium on his wage demand, so that may be less if he were to get back to London.

[darren woolley]

At least now the wage bill has dropped we can replace them with better I wanted NRC to stay but GH knows what he his doing.

It doesn't really need the amanger to make these decisions.  That's a list of 10 players who either haven't been offered or haven't accepted a new contract.  We can't keep them at the club and see if a new manager offers them a contract so it's not that someone other than the manager IS making decisions about who to get rid of but rather that there ISN'T anyone negotiating deals with out of contract players.  For the youngsters the decision would have come from the reserves and youth setup anyway, for the seniors the only suprise is NRC.

I can't see anything to worry about with this.

I can see us forking out for combative but limited midfielder to compliment the squad less than 12 months after we've let one walk. Maybe I'm just cynical.

[Tom_Mc9?]

Not too disappointed, we need massive changes at the club anyway. I didn't think I'd see the day Salifou left, though.

[PaulWinch again]

Shame about Reo going, but kind of inevitable. We do need some positivity about the place.

[pablopicasso_10]

shame about okey cokey.. i thought he wasnt treated too well while here, although his contract demands on the back of a couple weeks decent form were a bit farcical...

hey ho...

shame about carew too, but you could see he wasnt interested in the alst 6 months or so... he did give us some great service and memories though...

not bothered about the rest... good to get some off the wage bill...

[Namlod]

All these comments regarding " how can we make decisions when we don't know who the manager is?"

Yes we do, Gerard Houllier until we hear otherwise.

[UK Redsox]

QPR or Fulham (or Reading if they're promoted) is my guess for NRC

[Concrete John]

Got a feeling he'll end up at Sunderland for some reason.

[villasjf]

NRC has a house down south or stated he did when recently in court for speeding so I guess somewhere down south, he stated a Champion league team were after him so off to Arsenal to replace cesc?

[Merv]

Oh well, that sorts out the 'will he, won't he?' NRC debate pretty swiftly.
