Clint Hill to be released


PRW.

Recommended Posts

Maybe a bit more prone to injuries these days and I expect the medical team's report on him may have had an influence. Anyway, probably the right decision but glad he signed and big big thanks for your goals, Clint. Especially that one. :tu:

Unfortunate for him the fact others were still in contract whilst his was up for renewal.

Best CH this season. Bates and Kiernan don't come close.

But it's the right decision to free up his wage or I could see us being stuck with the same 4 next season.

Thanks big man, especially for the goal against that mob.

This makes me sad, love the big man. He and Miller are our leaders on the park, not Wallace. 

He's got another season in him. Even if he's replaced by someone of Alves' quality we'll still need another in, we can't be relying on Bates. 

We need a first choice signing and Sumaila is far from proven enough to be that, so we're looking at :

X First Choice CB (possibly Alves or Izquierdos) , Sumaila, Wilson, Bates. 

I'd feel far more comfortable with Hill still in the squad over Bates tbh. I guess it comes down to how much wages we need freed up, but we could do much worse than having Clint in the squad even if he's considered 3rd or 4th choice on paper.

I would assume that we will be bringing in a few more CBs and the likes of Kiernan will have been told to look for a new club. He still has at least a year to run of his contract so unless we pay him off ,which I hope we don't do for any of the players, we can't just release him unfortunately.

Thanks for your efforts but its obvious that with his deal being up, we are looking at replacing him with someone else as it is much easier to do so with him being out of contract.

I think Senderos leaving is so blatantly obvious that nobody even thinks a statement is needed

Aye they are probably wanting to keep quiet that they actually signed this donkey in the first place.

Feel sorry for the big man as he has given his all for the club, is a likeable guy and has been one of our best players.

But it is the correct decision. We need a new defence in and can't waste a wage on Clint Hill if we are serious about league and European ambitions.
