Interesting one. Didn't realise he was a big earner, not sure how high he has his heights set but can't imagine him being a starter for anyone much better than us.
Not good news short term for the rest of the season if he's got his eye on not getting injured. How confident would we be of Masterson stepping up to fill his shoes? |  |

I like him as a person, LB, but on the streams and the times I saw him play I thought he was very quiet? Am I wrong on that? |

A sad way to go for our longest serving player, slinking off without getting a goodbye game (but then again Faurlin was the same).
WIthout Hall and Pugh, and only one centre forward, and nine fast games coming up, and a half-fit squad, and no Loftus Rd crowd, can't help but feel we're not exactly going to pull up trees. All about next season now. |  | | |

A lot of other teams are in the same position.
We're no better than mid table anyway. |  |

we have 3 strikers, Hugil, Oteh and that Danish fella who signed in January.
Are we really writing off the season because Hall and Pugh won't be playing? [Post edited 19 Jun 2020 19:30]

Dont actually think we'll miss him. Done well to come back from injuries but never got the impression he'd run through walls for us. Just another modern day footballer. |  |

TBH I feel like generally injuries and enforced absences have tended to end up positive things for us recently. Someone's usually a little more ready than maybe we first thought (Masterson was supposed to be out on loan by the original plan), a new positional/tactical question asks itself, or even just us as a fanbase getting a new perspective on the absent like with Barbet.
To just sit there and go "season over we're not pulling up any trees" just cos our fanciful miracle promotion chances have (arguably!) taken a hit after a season of lovely enterprising football with players developing before your eyes, well it beggars belief really... I'll be very excited to see how Dieng, Gubbins and whoever else get on if they get the nod. |  | | |

Think you answered your own question there Dave, West Ham's Hugil, Oteh hardly played and we're not sure he is good enough (we hope he is) and some bloke you don't know the name of
If Hugil Barbet or masterson get injured we are skin and bones | | | |

He would've been classed as an average Championship defender but his appalling injury record means he's no great loss for us and certainly not worth a new contract on the money he thinks he should be on. Never felt he was worthy of the captain's armband either. |  | | |

(Little behind the curtain thing, back in the summer Warburton wanted Rangel to be captain and Rangel told him it should be Hall so he went with that) |  | | |

At his best he was far above average. I'm sorry your relationship didn't work out. |  | | |

He only ever had the one injury, tendonitis, and if the club hadn't pushed him into action too soon after his operation to cure it we might have seen even more of him. We had two seasons out of him before the tendonitis so it's hardly a Kieron Dyer scenario is it? |  |

Nice story.
Rangel seems like a nice guy and great pro. Wish he played for us when he was 27 not 37.
Hall always struck me as someone well respected. | | | |

Tendonitis is a recalcitrant sod, really difficult to get rid of. I've had it in my left elbow (I'm right handed) for over six months, it's got less severe slowly in peaks and trough without showing any sign of clearing up altogether, and I'm not even trying to do sport at any level.
In other news I see Jack Robinson got his first game for Sheffield Utd tonight, joining the rare set of recent ex Rs to go up a level. |  |

I have liked Hall
His injuries and mental health troubles absolutely I do feel for the guy having to go through those experiences
From my perspective this club have been extremely good for him and making him captain I think based on the fact he certainly is a trier when he is out on the pitch.
A captain leading by example with playing to the full as opposed to shouting instructions
Its clear after lockdown all players salaries will drop - especially at a club like ours.
However unless he has a deal set somewhere else - I feel his or more than likely his agents - he has made a big mistake.
I feel he is at the right level for his talents and his efforts - and also with the fact he does have long list of injury troubles - mid table championship is the best he will get offered
Unless we have given a derisory offer where will he get better
I am aware I am guessing but I doubt it was derisory - wages will be less all round and offering a long contract to an injury prone player - no matter his talents and effort - where is he going get better
Appreciate its a short career so unless he only feels he has another good two years or so in him - I am happy he has left
Timing on this one day before the season starts stinks a little - and the club have been very good for the guy
I should think he could well go the way of Smithies, robinson, freeman, Luongo etc and will realise his best years were at the KIyan Prince...
Clearly we need more depth in this area but Barbet I like and the games I saw with Masterson he looked very promising , Cameron could do a job if its for the rest of the season so I do feel he will miss us more than we miss him
The comment "I need to look out more as I got a child" if indeed that statement was ever offered to me that suggest him or his agent or his young lady perhaps had a bit more sway in the decision
If that was indeed said - I wish him well but say bon voyage
I liked him as a player but reading between the lines - know could be inaccurate - but the way this negotiation has seemed to transpire - I think we have made a better decison than himself
If he hasnt got a contract signed up somewhere else I feel he could actually be out of work for a period !!!!! |  |
