Saville gone?

[King of The Jungle]

Just heard he is out the door, possibly Luton... After we offered him reduced terms.

Is this right?

I am extremely surprised if true. I think he is absolutely pivotal to our midfield and very hard to replace....

 

[Zampaway]

You are 4 hours late mate.... in the transfer thread (PS. Wippa gonna get you!)

 

[Lioninwaiting]

Outrageous thread

 

[bazzwall]

Not totally surprised, although keeping him was my favoured option.

Think this subject is worthy of its own thread? Peckham might say differently

Quality player gave his all but everyone moves on. Nature of the game.

I agree mate he is. Always worth a thread for individual players leaving.

He'll be missed. His presence and experience was valuable.

sav always knows the dark side of the game he was a wind up in every game
loved watching him play and think he will be missed
wish him all the best and thank you for many enjoyable moment

Great servant to club many thanks right decision on way to Luton same as Honeyman no championship clubs banging door down for either probably says it all

 

[Kryan Bing]

I wanted him to stay, but I'm not surprised either. Especially as others from the old guard have been released or are going soon. At a guess, this is all about JB, Steve Gallen and AN building a squad of their own. JB did say a few weeks back that things are going to happen.

Good luck to Sav on his next venture, and the others for that matter. They've done the club well and are one of the main reasons why we are still in the Championship, and even more importantly, we seem to be in a healthy position.
It looks like the summer could get interesting with incomings.

 

[jards]

Bit gutted to be honest, but wish him all the best.

 

[Cranham Lion]

Good player, top pro and we will miss his leadership. Hope he gets another 2-3 year deal somewhere else.

Time for younger players to step up now.

My favourite player first time around, watched him off the ball lots as he gave out a lot of stick , really good quality player who got under opposing players skin, will miss him, new how to go in hard

Have been told he was offered reduced terms and no guarantee of game time. It's understandable at his age if he wants regular football. You need to be playing to stop the rust setting in.

I loved watching him. I'd follow him even when he wasn't on the ball. He'd be in the refs ear and challenged every decision and 50/50 that went against us. He'd be in his markers ear winding them up, he'd be schooling and talking Billy Mitchell through the game and sorting us out position and shape wise. He certainly had the dark arts off to a tee.

He'll probably get another season or two out of his legs if he drops down a division.

This was a lovely goal
