Don't think you're going to get an answer to that question.

One imagines that there must be a good reason and not just that he isn't an old, married (and possibly religious) man!

Sadly, we seem to lose at least 1 player every year before the season starts.

We've already got a small squad and losing someone at this stage is crap (and will no doubt be a useful addition to one of our rivals).

One word....FFS!

not great timing. If it is a family matter I hope it works out, if it is a case of Homesick then my sympathy wains a little. He has ben here a fair amount of time now, 2 weeks before the season starts is a bit of a let down. If he is just homesick could he not have stayed till we found a replacement?? He is not a young kid , disappointing to say the least.
