Not trying to troll here but does releasing players mid season not smack a little of PG writing this season off already?

In a strange way I,m quite pleased by this, it seems at last that we have a regime who will do what it takes to get us to where we should be & not sticking to sentiment.

How do you reach that conclusion ?

It's a fairly reasonable observation, we keep crap like Horne and bin up and coming youngsters without giving them chance to even play.

Because we're releasing a player who, when fit has played for us every week of the season, when we're already short in the front row.

I think something must have happened here, O'Carroll seems a popular kid and surely if this was just a normal case of a player leaving they wouldn't have made a leaving speech the day before a game when he's presumably trained in the side all week?

Or it could be that those who don`t fit his plans will be off,P.D.Q.

Because we've looked capable of going all the way to O/T?

Maybe he's sending out a message to any player who doesn't want to put enough effort in. Maybe o'carroll has something else lined up

Maybe o'carroll had some appearance related clauses in his contract given his previous problems?

Well it's just strange isn't it, there is no need to jump on the defensive.
A team with injury problems in the front row decide to release a player who has played every time he has been available, midway through a season in which they are still competitive (if you ask PG he will tell you he still wants top 4).
Just seems like you are willing to be very understrength in one of the most important areas for a team that are still aiming to compete.

It's got to be something like that. THere must be some sort of get out for the club which they've opted to take now to avoid having to retain him for the full contract. Short term pain , long term we must have signed a couple of decent props?

Ellis has played several games, including our last one. O'Carroll has played every week he's been fit for selection. Not sure how that's not giving them chance, TBH.

O'Carroll is 25, he's been a first grade player for seven years (off and on). He's hardly an up and coming youngster. Plus he's played ten times this season and hardly stood out.

He was Agar's signing and Gentle presumably has plans to sign better than we have.

Don't see the relevance whether he is popular or not. You can't keep a player just so you don't upset his teammates.

This is Poorhouse Lane. And this is Neil, the rovers supporter who leads an exciting double life. For when Neil sponsors RLFANS an amazing transformation occurs. [color=#80BF40:1y1okols]Neil is Cabbageman[/color:1y1okols]. Ever alert for the call no injury too small! [url:1y1okols]http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Cabbage%20Man[/url:1y1okols]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_19862.jpg



We may need to clear the decks for another signing to come in this year. Its all in the air we want better players and Gentle wants his own team full of players that will give 100%
Good Luck to O'Carroll where ever he ends up.
