There will be no shortage of takers being out of contract. Wintle will probably do very well out of it too as there’s no transfer fee involved.He'll get snapped up no problem. Was immense last season so thanks Wintle lad and good luck.

Seems like he's a decent egg and reasonable to try and maximise his earning potential now given as this very likely his last big contract. I wonder if he's had concrete offers - if not, it's possible he may be in for a surprise if the new financial rules are as restrictive as people are sayingHe'll get snapped up no problem.

"A decision that was out of my control" infers he wasn't offered enough money imo.

Shame to see the player of the season leave in this way. Hope to god Bagan doesn't do the same.
As bad as Tan is at running a football club, he’s clearly a pretty good businessman to be as rich as he is.I get the impression that BBM would be a pretty charming type of a bloke. Hopefully his visit to see Tan in Malaysia has convinced him to support him at having a crack at promotion. Replacing Wintle with better quality isn’t going to be cheap.
Very strange decision to take - i presume this means they're very confident with Savage/King/Mafico for that position.Was told they were hopeful NG and Bagan stay, Wintle doesn't get a contract.
2/3rds there.
Bit his tongue has he?As bad as Tan is at running a football club, he’s clearly a pretty good businessman to be as rich as he is.
So I’d like to think that he knows that he’s got a gem in BBM and after seeing what he can do on a shoestring budget last season, hopefully he’s pulled his trousers up and said “Ah Mr Brian, here is open chequebook, go buy good player”
Suggests to me he wasn’t offered a new contract."A decision that was out of my control" infers he wasn't offered enough money imo.

Savage is just rumours.Very strange decision to take - i presume this means they're very confident with Savage/King/Mafico for that position.
Any reason on why he wouldn't be offered if you can share?

Yeah, very true we've other options there but I'd be shocked at the decision making of those in charge this season if they thought our player of the season was upgradable given that would naturally lead to everyone else being upgradeable by proxy.Just think he's upgradable and out of contract.
Robertson/Joel/Turnbull/Rubin/King can all play CM and I'm sure we'll bring at least one more in. Then have Mafico too.
Any good?Savage is just rumours.
Absolutely, but they're pretty strong rumours that now make a lot more sense than they did a few hours ago though.Savage is just rumours.

I see money being a big issue for us this season unfortunately.
BBM undoubtedly knows a lot more than us about the day to day of the squad and like you say made a lot of good decisions last summer like Ralls, O'Dowda and Ramsey but for an ever-present player this season for us not to be considered good enough just seems baffling to me.Purely a BBM decision. He called it right last summer, has plenty of credit in the bank.
Not sure about financial comments. BBM will be backed this summer.
Tan gets a lot of flack but I'm confident that we'll hold off any approaches for our players unless BBM wants to let them go at a certain price. Likewise, I'm pretty sure BBM will get whatever he wants on incomings (within reason!).
Maybe put on Savage Gardening leave .Pretty savage to let your captain go imo
