I think I speak for most of us when I say I am stunned by this news.

The inevitable has happened. Let's hope we put the money we were spending on his wages to good use!

Where is he going?. I will fill the petrol tank up on the car and pick him up to take him wherever it is.

Release clause? How does that work then? Is it like football manager where a minimum fee has to be reached by a bidder which we have to accept?

My guess is that he had a clause in his contract that stated he could leave for free if we were relegated. What happens though if we're re-instated following the Wycombe saga? Does he have to re-join us?! Seriously though, good riddance to an overpaid, petulant prima donna who never once matched the heights of his loan spell with us. Arguably one of the most overrated players in our history.

I personally like John Jo but if his heart ain't in it and he wont fight for the Badge and Club then maybe its for the best..... I wish him well and its not entirely his fault we now play in the Tinpot Premier Skrill League, other players & managers & Directors must shoulder that blame.

Good, off the wage bill. can't believe anyone thought we would get money for him 15 goals in a relegation season and still under contract. I agree I am glad he's off the wage bill but surely we could have got a fee?

Why sign a player on those terms? What a joke.

What sort of reception do you think JJ will get next time (if ever) he visits the Mem with his new team?

His twitter bio of "not arsed" just about summed him up towards the end of the season.
