If he's been told he doesn't have a future here after the summer why hasn't Gabby whose deal will also be up?

[brontebilly]

Can understand not offering him a 2 year deal but thought he deserved an extra year. Keeps himself in good nick and a more than capable performer at this level.

[achilles]

One can only assume that it is his wages that are the problem as he is easily our best left back at the club and could do a job again if we are left in the championship.

[sid1964]

Thank the lord the club has seen good sense not too offer him a new contract

When we are promoted we will need far better players than Hutton at the back, lets hope that the likes of Gabby are also having the same conversation with the club!

[mr underhill]

much as Hutton brings some comic relief to VP at times, not offering him a new contract is a very wise decision.

[cdbearsfan]

Slaphead wigs and Scotland flags all round at Millwall away? Anybody?

[Clark W Griswold]

I really like Hutton, he's always given his all and has actually been pretty damn good at this level. Probably will need an upgrade ability wise if we go up but there are a few other positions you'd say that about also.

[Oscar Arce]

The timing of this is very poor.
The guy's attitude and commitment has been superb, putting the likes of Richards and Flabby to shame, and becoming one of my favourite players of recent times.
I hope we can go up now and give him the great send off he deserves...the Scottish Cafu.

I doubt it has come as any surprise to him, didn’t he take up the extra year option on his contract in the summer? His attitude and application have been exemplary but he is probably at a stage where he can only get the stability of a longer term deal elsewhere.

[Clark W Griswold]

He's certainly one of my favourites of recent years, he reminds me of a footballer from a time when I started attending when footballers were more human and, well, likeable.

[darren woolley]

I would give him a 12 month deal because he's been fantastic for us and never let us down surely he deserves that at the very least instead of giving him nothing and telling him he isn't getting a new contract in the summer.

[Risso]

Surely the thing to do would have been to tell everybody that all decisions are on hold pending whether promotion is achieved or not?  I agree that we probably need better, but as a useful squad member who can cover both full back positions I'd probably have given him a year's extension.  He's seen off a fair number of right and left backs in the last couple of years, including De Laet, Bree and Taylor.

[dave.woodhall]

Maybe he's happy with a free - a big signing-on fee, decent wages and he'll be playing regularly so the season after that he can get a better deal than if he'd been in our reserves.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

As much as I love him there's no space for sentimentality in the Premier League. Should we go up, as with Bruce, shake their hand, thank them very much and wish them all the best in the future.

[paul_e]

I'm not sure on the 'never let us down' bit.  He's done well in the last 12 months but even this time last year he was looking poor and we wanted to see him replaced, most people were very happy with RDL and Bree arriving so he could be shifted on and it's only really since he moved to left back that he put in consistently decent performances.

Good attitude, seems like a decent bloke but he's 33 and has only really given us 1 decent season out of 7 with the club, letting him go is the right decision.
