He's a top player when injury free but the last 18 months we've hardly seen him.

I hope we have a manager and players lined up

How much wages have we spent on injured players? Its eye watering.

All good players but if they are not playing then its best to cut ties.

I'm delighted with the clear out in general. Hopefully more to come.

Did they walk into the treatment room and say, "right lads, you can all leave and play your footy elsewhere ".

Did he not sign a contract extension midseason?

Fats has left the club as well. Joining Ballymena United.

It's a real shame we didn't get to see him on the pitch for a consistent period of time over the previous 2 seasons. A got and healthy Fats could have made all the difference this year.

Dundalk got the best of him. He was fantastic at Dundalk. We got glimpses.

Not prolific. 8 in 70 odd games for Shels.

Ciaron Coll has an offer from Sligo an several IL clubs, Derry offering him a contract extension but on reduced terms, we can't afford to lose his experience.

One of our most consistent performers this season. Would be sad to lose his experience and commitment.

It would be a shame to lose Coll, he's an excellent squad player who can cover a few positions but if someone is going to offer him a longer contract and more money then fair play.

He's turning 33 and is on the downside of his career, it wouldn't be wise to offer improved terms on his last contract.

Age curves, player value and all that.
