Hreidarsson

From the bbc:

Exit option open for Hreidarsson

Hermann Hreidarsson could quit Charlton for free after more than four years at the club, BBC Sport understands.
The Icelandic international defender's present deal runs until 2009.

But the 32-year-old has a clause in his contract which allows him to leave the Valley for nothing following Charlton's relegation from the Premiership.

It is the fourth time Hreidarsson has been relegated from the top flight after also going down with Crystal Palace, Wimbledon and Ipswich.

Hreidarsson, who has more than 50 international caps, went down with the Eagles in 1998, Wimbledon two years later and Town in 2002.

And this season he was unable to help the Addicks climb clear of danger after a slow start to the campaign.

He was one of four players to make 30 or more league appearances, but his own goal at Blackburn in late April proved a costly mistake in a 4-1 defeat which left Alan Pardew's team with too much to do in their final two games.

A 2-0 defeat at home to Tottenham in their penultimate game sealed Charlton's fate after seven years in the Premiership.

  • Don't know if I'm upset about that or not. I quite like the Herm, but this season he has made some very costly mistakes, as well as losing his head far too often. Might be time to bring some of the kids in in his place...
  • i like him, and you can't fault his passion for playing, but he does seem more tired now. great to keep on if wages are low, in the squad, but otherwise, thanks for everything herman, good luck!

    I agree.

    I'd rather that he went now with me still liking him then dragging it out and making too many mistakes.

    Cudicini and Ferguson incidents - brilliant
  • Too true.
    Feeesh is a Charlton hero, ore so than Herm in my book, but look how he was in the end.
  • apologies didnt see the other thread
  • I hope he leaves - has been good for us, he's past it now.
  • he thinks he is better than he is - rubbish at centre half and haf decent at left back..
  • Thanks Herman...close the door on your way out....
  • People are jumping the gun here, it says he can leave not that he will be leaving. Its possible that the PO winners might sign him but you can't really see much Prem interest in him so he might well end up staying with us. Pards seems to rate him highly because he seems to play whenever he is fit.

  • I love his full on passionate attitude but his best days are now behind him. I would have thought we may offload him but as you say Ormiston, that may be difficult if no one comes in for him.
