Wens-Dee Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Westwood and Lee not on the list though which I’d say is good news!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edmontonowl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Other than Hooper, no surprises. Suspect Hooper's injury record is a big part of the decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlsend Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Well they’ve done what they have to do a bit disappointed not to have seen Fletcher on the list He’s probably one of our biggest earners 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetsheri Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Agree with that 100% I’d like to see us sell or give frees to a few now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dot Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 no surprise really......other than Hooper, thought he might have got an offer with conditions attached Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooogs Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Hmmm... does this imply that we're in talks with Kieran Lee for next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groundhopping Owl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Pleased with that. For me it was an either/or with Lee and Hooper - being generous we can possibly afford to try our luck that one of them will be fit and healthy for another year or two, but not both. Releasing Matias shows that we're aiming to improve, the rest were no-brainers. I wonder when we find out which youth teamers are being released? Am I right in thinking the likes of Nielsen and O'Grady are out of contract and unlikely to be renewed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Sad to see Hooper go, though it’s 100% the right decision. I wish him well. I loved watching him play for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 About right. We need a fresh start. Thought Hooper might be given a new deal, but everyone else needed to be shipped out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s6 owl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Palmer, Lee and Westwood offered new deals then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StudentOwl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Remember, Hooper didn't even play in 2018. He's scored once since 2017. We can't afford to carry a 31 year old striker (albeit a class player on his day) who has only scored once in a year and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakefieldowl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 A lot of cash released there......and no pace amongst them. Excited about next season already. It will be interesting summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Shame about Hooper but perhaps he also wanted away, wasn’t he linked with an American team not so long ago? Pleased with the rest, thought Bruce May have been tempted to offer Boyd a new deal but im pleased he didn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Reckon there will be quite a few thousand a week being saved from those players released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
