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.

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.

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.

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.

Saying "bollocks to him" when you've no idea why he's missing is pretty pathetic.

Would make sense to keep an open mind and find out the reason for his absence before acting as judge, jury and executioner.

I can't be arsed to get into this with you but I hope you don't jump to such quick judgement in other areas of your life.

Yep if the club have given him an extension because he's struggling then that's great from the club.

They haven't I don't think? Paulie meant he has one year remaining on his contract (anyway), not that we've added on an extra year.

I think?

I thought it was that Bent nicked his mrs off him. He met a girl on training camp and jacked it all in to be with her and then marry her?

I recall hearing that. If it is indeed true, then I hope to God we're not still paying him.
Whatever has happened, I think it would appear that Herd has played his last game for us. Stop his contract by mutual consent and then let him do as he pleases, be it continuing in football or not.

I don't know the circumstances of his disappearance but I do know that there's a good player in there somewhere. If Lambert bothers to find out we may still see him in our squad as a defensive MF and FB cover.

Great goal at Anfield and great hair. Mediocre utility player.

We are not a charity. Add to it he's another in the line that aren't good enough, we will be better off when his contract runs down and if any one of the rumours are to be believed it should be cancelled.

You want us to cancel a player's contract on the basis of a rumour on the internet? I hope you're willing to meet the club's legal costs when he takes us to a Tribunal.
