Why judge the guy when you don't KNOW the reason why he isn't playing. I like to see somebody call him Ian Shirke to his face not hiding on here!

You can't just decide to stop paying someone.

Listening to the BS interview, it would seem only Kirmond, Locke and Howarth are unavailable for selection. Like Poptart says, you can't just stop paying someone, he is part of the squad and not being selected, which is hardly surprising given his performances when he has played?? I think like some have said, he wasn't a great signing in the first place, a guy in his mid 30's from Leeds?

No one said that. Just commenting that Kirke has been shameful waste of money that could've been spent to better use.

Most of the squad have been.

Kirke was knackered when we signed him when will we learn same with Ali great player but Kirke should have never being signed Ali should have being released end of 2013 We let decent players Ferguson Kay Walshaw Pitts go and sign old men and average overseas players it does not work
