Absolutely gutted , we seem to lose our best players in every transfer window lately !!! Got a bad feeling that we are going backwards again. The heart and soul is gradually being ripped out of this club again after such great work. Taylor , bodin , manse , Ellis , Brown , gaffers , macca and quite possibly linsey.Throw into the mix the loss of possibly our best manager ever in DC. I’m really not confident with anything at our club anymore after feeling so confident so long ago. But , congratulations to you mr Lockyer , you have been an integral part of our rise up the divisions and 8 years at a club in the modern game nowadays is pretty much unheard of, good luck to you wherever you go , I wish you nothing but success. It’s just a shame our club don’t share the same ambitions as you. We lose Locks Lines and Sinclair this summer that is huge.

Not sorry he is going and he deserves a better club to try and forge a successful career.
No surprise whatsoever that no mention from the disgraceful leadership group at our club ... you treat the fans like dirt but you know already..
Al Qadis and their puppet show care not one jot for this club or the fans .... Another asset watched being washed away from the club, no fee, no nothing.
Our club is on a life support machine ... Al Qadis have their finger on the off switch.

“Where a professional player, under the age of 24, has been offered a new contract by his club (subject to certain requirements that the offer must meet set out in Rule 64.3 of the Football League Rules) and he rejects that offer in order to take up the opportunity to sign for another club, compensation will be payable.” If he is running down his contract, surely all we have to do to warrant compensation is offer him a new deal as above?

Absolutely gutted by this news, one of the best CBs I've ever had the pleasure of seeing at this club. I'll have a guess and say he's off to Cardiff. My guess too.

I can't understand what you're all complaining about.
Surely this just opens the door for the big tall commanding centre half you've all been clamouring for?
Also, didn't Lockyer sign a long term contract in January 2018? Is 18 months a long term contract?

But he is over 24 now (since December), so I assume we wouldn't get anything You couldn't make it up

Don’t speak on my behalf , I’ve never, not once mentioned a ‘big tall commanding centre half ‘ and Ive certainly not ‘clamoured’ for anything.

Yes , he’s one of the best players we have in our current set up

All league1 defenders make mistakes hence why they play in league 1 , most league 1 defenders hoof the ball , he’s also probably instructed to do so , who knows? What we do know is , factually, he is our captain, and has also been part of a team that has won back to back promotions, he’s also getting more involved with his national team and would appear ( if the rumours are true ) to be moving on to bigger and better things. Hardly the hallmarks of a player who ‘f**ks up’. But everyone is entitled to an opinion.

However, some people have an obsession about our centre backs heights. Not me, he'll definitely be a huge miss. Some other comments on this thread beggar belief.

I remember hearing Nottingham Forest were interested in him at the start of the season so possibly they kept their interest and he's going there? Very loyal to us and deserves a chance to see if he can make the step up to the Championship. Not sure on Craig being our best central defender next season though tbh so atleast if it is true we know this early and the management team and board have the time to bring in a decent replacement for Lockyer.
