Re-signed for another year, apparently.

Sorry, I meant to say, still here for next season, rather than signed for another year. Not on the released list.

He's a useful player to have, so if his head's in the right place, it is a bit of a no brainer if we assume we're not going to be setting the transfer market alight this summer

He's never really let us down so as long as he has got his personal stuff in order then a reasonable player to have around.

If it's any consolation, it's probably houllier's fault.

He has let us down though. He's a paid professional of this club, raking in a lot of money and he was in no condition to perform.

i don't mean to single you out here, but where is the difference between Herd (poor lad) & Dunne (fat pissed up bastard) both paid huge sums to be professional and fit for the job they do. Considering Dunne was a better player for us than herd will ever be, I don't get the logic in the general views on this site.

Well we know that Dunne was a fat pissed up bastard. We've no idea why Herd is out and it is unfair to make judgements while attempts to explain his absence are based on pure speculation.

If he let the club down he'd have been released. Given that he hasn't one can only assume what happened was personal and club have sympathized with him and his situation.

can't believe he's 25. Not a youngster any more.

I thought he'd gone to dwell with the  Shumanites. What league do they play in ? Think I'll go and watch them next season.

He always seems a solid player to me, who is flexible and a decent worker, just a shame he is a bit of a hot head.  As a squad player who may still improve I say keep him.

Hopefully he will be released and that's another £10k or whatever a week wiped from our books. Sick of having to support losers who couldn't give a flying fuck about the club but expect sympathy and patience at the drop of a hat. Bollocks to him.
