Rodman still to go and prob Grant too...remember them? I can’t see Barton letting Grant go, he’s his favourite player. I don’t think he’d want to leave anyway if he’s still injured and we’re providing his treatment.

Grant looks as of he is on holiday all the time if his socail account is anything to go by. Does anyone know how long he has left on his contract as I cant see him being offered another one regardless of whether Barton likes him as a player Pretty sure it expires this summer. If he proves his fitness (and we are still in L1) I would expect him to be offered a short term contract

Absolutely over the moon. Complete fraud of a footballer who has stole a living off us for years. Comfortably one of the worst signings in our history. Cracking open a beer!! Nicely done, I'll join you with a few pints.

Delighted with that news .... utter disgrace who showed no true effort or intent on the pitch and totally not fit to wear the Quarters.
Plenty of squad gaps now for JB to fill.... Hopefully two more incomings this week ?

Don’t know about lack of effort but his compass was certainly broken. Forever passing backwards.

Im guessing the club have a duty of care to ensure an employee who is injured at work is looked after. You would not also talk about getting rid of someone when they are injured as this will have a negative effect on their mental health im sure. All injured players are therefore valued members of the squad . Once fit they like everyone will have to prove their playing value to remain in the squad.

We do seem to be working on the one out one in idea at the moment. So with ZW leaving seems a new player will be announced in the coming hours or days.

Best thing for all parties. Have no major ill feelings towards Zain. Tried his best, just wasn’t good enough for what we wanted to do.
Hope he manages to resurrect his career somewhere else.

A real shame it never worked out for him here Hopefully him moving on opens up a slot for a new signing...! At last, a decent and kind post, some players just don’t thrive at certain teams but go on to do better, elsewhere. This is someone’s career we are talking about and not like L1 players are paid enough to retire early. Good luck Mr, shame it did not work, with us

I don’t think he’d want to leave anyway if he’s still injured and we’re providing his treatment. Grant coming from Chelsea, has had a far easier ride, than many other players would've had. Will be interesting to see where, if anywhere, Westbrooke ends up considering he'd struggle to physically impose himself even in the female leagues.

Not sure what level he goes too to be honest, showed clear signs at Coventry he could be a top end league 1 player possibly Champ where its a little less physical and showed that bit of flair/creative spark in the final third.
It just didnt work for him here which is shame, certianly goes down as one of our worst players.
Cant see any club above us taking a risk on him but I also cant see him cutting it in league 2/Conf where it's just to physical for him.
Best of luck Zane hopefully you can turn your career back around.

Guess that frees up a rather large salary?

Not a fraud or a disgrace. Those are harsh words best reserved for the likes of Payne, who deserved little sympathy due to his poor attitude. It just didn’t work out for Zain, for whatever reason. He didn’t hide. Think about his dead ball deliveries. He was trusted with them during the covid season but he seemed to have completely lost confidence/form or whatever it was. There is clearly a footballer in there. I remember there being promise in some of his link up play but he just seemed to lose all belief in himself when it came to picking the killer pass, which should have been his forte. Good luck to him but I’d suggest it would be a long way back from here. Possibly non-league beckoning a la Barrett, another of the Widdrington/Garner signings who has done pretty well at Kings Lynn. We really payed the price ultimately for poor recruitment.

I wish the lad all the best, no bad feelings towards him but should never of been signed in the first place. A good footballer yes, but unable to do basics, can't tackle, can't head the ball, easily dispossessed and doesn't get involved enough. I shall forever have nightmares of him ducking out of headers and pulling out of tackles.
