According to Alan Nixon….

[1879]

McGeady, Xhemajli, Burge and Willis have all been released

From what you read about Xhemajli he’s highly rated (not that we’ve seen it due to his horrific injury) I suppose if we can replace him with someone who is proven at championship level / experience I’d be happy.

There’s meetings this week to sort it out, also been told Grigg was told last week

Told he’s shite?

That can't have come as a surprise.

 

[Mowgli]

Can’t really grumble. Feel a bit sad for Arby, poor blokes had a shit time here. Willis been very unlucky too. Would have kept Burge personally, think he is solid.

Burge will be on a decent packet imo

 

[the dark one]

Willis was one of our highest earners. McGeady was one of the few bright sparks throughout League One but time to move on.

Willis was given an extra year after his injury iirc. It was to help him get fit. He'll have been in peanuts if that was in fact the case.

 

[turbo bratwurst]

arby had one outstanding game against wigan which bizarrely is the only game i went to this season, the last time he played he got hooked at half time i think

I wonder if things might have been different had he not picked up that serious injury. We'll never really know if he was up to it or not.

 

[Definitely Maybe]

You would think that but apparently not, the extension was an extra year on the same terms

 

[The Situation]

McGeady was superb mind.

The one rare bit of enjoyment and quality in what was largely a horrid few years.

Also a leader who loved a big moment and one of a handful in the last few years who wouldn't accept being in the position we had found ourselves in.

I would have loved to have had the job of telling that twat

One of my fav ever players a for us

 

[ilovehorswill]

Fair enough

McGeady, Willis, Arby and possibly Burge were all on high wages and none of them are key players at this stage.

 

[Gaz]

No surprise really

If that's true, it shows what a nut job of a club we were.im all for helping players get back Iin their feet, help with rehabilitation and pay them a wage. I draw the line at silly wages. I'm amazed the chuckle brothers would have sanctioned that mind. We had little leeway with wages as it is.

 

[Scorer]

No surprises there. A shame for Willis and Xhemajli, in only slightly different circumstances they very well might have been a good championship level defensive partnership.
All go with best wishes having played a part. Hope they do well whether in or out of the game.

 

[ksafc77]

Shame about Arby as he looked decent in that Wigan game

 

[JL1985]

Shame for Willis and Xhemajli. Injuries have ruined their SAFC careers.

 

[Scootsie]

Gutted for Willis.

Really rated him.

 

[ToneSAFC73]

Wonder if Mcgeady ends up at hibs with Johnson
