That was his choice though, it's hardly comparable.
He showed no loyalty to his employer at the time. Why should we be any different to him? |

Basically means you're not wanted here so kindly fuck off to another club pronto.
Football is a brutal business as we all know.

I'm sure he would rather be told that than sit on the bench all season. |

He's a decent striker in League 2, but would be bang average in League 1. Last season he scored some important goals but he was never prolific. Met him a few times and he's a really nice guy but in football it doesn't work like that, hope he get's a good move and goes to a club that will play him regularly.

Not sure how this is harsh treatment. Seems open & honest to me.
"Thanks for your service last season; it's much appreciated but we're signing players who are expected to be chosen above you, so it's best for you to find another club."
No place for sentiment here. As you say he could stay and see out his contract but that's not likely to be the best result for anyone.
Well it is for him really.....who in a division lower or indeed our division would match his contract? As i say he was top scorer for us last season and yes he wont be playing for us again hence my reason for saying its a bit harsh. If he stays and picks up his wages....i for one wouldn't blame him as he earned it on last years showing. |

Should we not have been looking to recoup some of the £100k we spent on him? Top scorer for the L2 champs should have commanded something?

I am surprised. Like you say for the top scorer of the elague 2 champions last year we could have got most of that £100k back. Just goes to show how desperate PDC is to get him off the wage bill, so he must have someone lined up. |

I suspect he earns more around £100k pa and if we were to demand £25k for him and no one takes him, we're £100k worse off than if we'd got rid of him for nothing. Yes it's not great to lose whatever it was we actually paid for him, but in the grand scheme of things, it's not worth worrying about.

It could be argued that we have more than recouped what we paid for him as a result of his significant contribution to last seasons success  |
