Have players said they dont want to play?

Clem_Snide

Mick Collins latest tweet mentions sacking players who have indicated that dont want to play as they aren't getting a contract next year.

Mick, I assume you have some foundation for this and I respect your opinion. If this is true WTF is going on behind the scenes? We are in meltdown!

LouisMend

Whats his twitter address?

Powelly's the right manager, the players are the problem. Contract renewals? You having a laugh? #cafc

MickPCollins Mick Collins
Oh, to sack all the players who have said they don't want to play as they're not getting a new contract, so they're looking elsewhere. #cafc

If there is any semblence of truth in this, whatever players have indicated that they dont want to play should be banished from the training ground.

MickCollins

Just to make clear, I've not been told specifically that anyone is refusing to play.

I meant those who are clearly not putting in the effort they should. Those who have made it clear they don't care. I'd prefer to live in a world where they didn't arrogantly presume to be able to collect their wages while not putting in the effort.

I don't suppose anyone has said as much, because players don't - they're too well advised.

I'm only saying the same as everyone else is thinking - wouldn't it be nice to be able to get rid of the players who can't seem to be bothered, and are just hanging around, not risking injury or effort, because they can't see a future for themselves beyond the end of the year and they don't want to risk getting hurt.

Chris Powell is being let down by a few players who seemingly don't care about the club as much as he does. And can any of you disagree with that?

RedMist

Agreed, but why does he keep playing them? That's like handing the other team 3points!
Play some youngsters anything must be better if that really is their attitude.
He's not stupid, why does he do it?

New team next year, most know they are gone. Should they give a shit and put a shift in?

Not like we have signed anyone in the past 5 years who is on the up in their careers.

Jarman

What if this new team next year doesn't want to play for him either?
Surely the players not wanting to play for him is a sign of a bad manager

New players means new contracts.

razorray0

its not the sign of a bad manager they are just parkys boys cp has not had a fair crack yet when hes got his team then he can be judged but not till the lazy useless sods that dont deserve the great shirt have been shot out of our club throw em in the covered end for 10 mins

razil

so which players is it that we think don't care and aren't putting in the effort?

Charltonparklane

They dont want to play for the club not the manager.

Yes but the PFA have always been too powerfull to allow any of that sort of thing. I say don't blame our manager blame whoever has been head of the PFA for the last number of years......










Oh.

I dont think this should be disscused on a public forum
we all can have a guess who dont look like there trying

Probably easier to list those that do still seem interested.

richie8

Why its obvious who cant be arsed?

Goonerhater

100% it should be on here and other sites---------------name and shame.

"looks like they are not trying" as we dont want any legal stuff.On the other hand wouldnt it be good to hear some legal knodHead explain how their client WAS trying its just that he is actually a shit footballer !

razil

there was talk of semedo and racon in contract talks around xmas

some of this lot are the 14 out of contract in the summer?

Anyinsah - can't see that
Dailly - neither with Daily
Fortune - has other issues, he's become pish
Jenkinson - n/a
Llera - can't see it
Mambo - nope
Racon - ditto Semedo?
Semedo - surely must have been offered something
Solly - n/a
Stavinrou - n/a
Jackson - inured but if he is out of contract and they don't offer him something right now they should be shot

who else?

Parky was popular amongst his players . Like others I reluctantly accepted his time was through.

A certain regular this season did not make the 18 yesterday and would now be the third choice in his best position . Only problem is that he is on a two year contract.

I have also been miffed about two other players not making the line up , maybe it now makes sense .

I hate these stories because you almost become paranoid about any other injured and suspended player .

superclive

They're pros. I thong they will all be trying.

I thang they will be looking to get paid this season and next, not risk anything beyond that. KP would know what is going on, what's his Twitter name - funny.

DiscoCAFC

Don't mean to sound silly but surely these players that don't care anymore should put in a decent performance to attract clubs looking at them?

I can't imagine clubs higher than us will want to bring in the likes of Francis

Parky was not popular man, or I dont think he was, was told by a certain youth team player who was involved by the first team. Only daily really liked him. Said Kinsella was much more popular.

As per Curbs and Peacock

all sounds ike a load of guff to me although i reckon racon would be top of the list of sulky arses not putting it in - just a gut feeling. when the team isn't functioning properly it can quite often look like people aren't trying when really its just hard to keep banging your head against a brick wall. i reckon semedo was sorted out at xmas and racon wasn't hence his mysterious injury and dropping - could be wrong but thats my hunch.

RedZed333

Sounds to me like another one of those typical hack storylines where they don't worry about letting the truth get in the way of a good story...

Stir up the shite, stand back, wait until it hits the fan and then come back with a 'that's not what I said' rebuttal...

The author of this rumor has got another pile of garbage going on in a similar thread...
