Fucking div in the comments saying "Tyler Walker next". Twat.

Was it @DannyThomas_1981 talking about cults again?

Worth a punt, there was obviously a good player in there somewhere.

I can't wish the bloke ill, I doubt he's taken us for millions. I hope he gets himself sorted out and makes a life for himself even if it's not in football. He might well be better off outside the pressures of the game, who knows.

harvey098 · Nov 1, 2021

Can see why we took the gamble. Many Cov players described him as the most talented player they had played with and we needed a cheap cam option. Robins got the best out of him last time round but clearly his heads not on. Hope he sorts out his personal battles but right decision not to carry anyone.

Self assessment or Bright?

Self assessment.

COVKIDSNEVERQUIT · Nov 1, 2021

Good riddance and about time too.

Evo1883 · Nov 1, 2021

Needs to work on himself , he's had the opportunity that millions of children around the world will never get , to be a professional footballer .. it's a real shame he cannot see the rare gift that's infront of him .

Never mind , I'm glad we've got rid

We need no10 cover then to help O Hare. We only have Allen or Jones.

That should be our aim in January.
I can see why Robins took a punt on a Bright. Sometimes maverick style players find a club home and flourish. Good business from the club in that they didn’t offer him silly terms and could get out of it. Obvious thing to do but not always done.

We move on.
By the way, has it ever been confirmed he has mental health issues?

How could a light that burned so brightly suddenly burn so pale?

No it hasn’t, his actions doesn’t seem that of a healthy person. Equally though he could just be a wanker who has no respect for anyone.

Brutal by Robins in sacking Bright to fund Hyam’s new contract

Must have learnt a faw things from Alex Fergusons.

No great loss to us but a big one for him, but hope he gets himself in order. Not sure he's deserving of the hate on here.

Hopefully frees up a wage
Mutually cancelled is good too

Probably paid him up until January. Fingers crossed not more than that.

Glad hes out the building.

Some players just don't actually enjoy playing football, despite being incredibly talented. Definitely seems to be the case with Bright.

He would have been on low wages and/or a heavily incentivised deal so I don't think we've lost out on much.

Not saying they’re the same, but wasn’t it Ashley Cole who said he hated football? He only did it because he was good at it. Maybe Bright just can’t be arsed to raise the motivation?

SkyblueTexan · Nov 1, 2021

Disappointed this didn't work out, but guess it allows us to cut our losses and move on. Cover for O'Hare has to be among our priorities for the Jan window I suppose.

Benoit Assou Ekotto too. Lots don’t like their jobs but still turn up

I'd suggest the issue is his technical ability has been good enough that he could reach a certain level without particularly having to try. Problem is, from that point on if he wanted to kick on, he needed to start trying, but probably doesn't know how to. The cash coming in regardless won't have motivated him either.

Benoît Assou-Ekotto: 'I play for the money. Football's not my passion' | Tottenham Hotspur | The Guardian

The Tottenham defender admits to being a mercenary and tells David Hytner how he prefers to put the game's unreal world behind him

amp.theguardian.com

I imagine he still turned up for every training session and game though like he was contractually obliged to

steve cooper · Nov 1, 2021

Signed 14th July, terminated 14 weeks later. Sounds to me like 3 months probation plus 2 weeks to arrange the required meeting with the required people in attendance, as thought by some of us.

torchomatic · Nov 1, 2021

I'll get on with starting a Carl Baker and Eric Black thread then.

covcity4life · Nov 1, 2021

A shame as talented player and I would like more final third options

However positive that he's gone and it's not gonna drag on. Hopefully we can bring someone in January now. Someone with a brain this time

torchomatic · Nov 1, 2021

Probably cost us very little, so we were right to take a chance on him. It's not CCFC who have lost out on this one.

Esoterica · Nov 1, 2021

He's so well known that the BBC have used a picture of Tavares (I think).

no_loyalty · Nov 1, 2021

He will probably go back to India, if not his career as a footballer will probably be over.

torchomatic · Nov 1, 2021

What a waste of talent. Talking of waste of talent, wonder what Kevin Thornton does now?

skyblueeyesrevisited · Nov 1, 2021

At least that’s one less distraction

Evo1883 · Nov 1, 2021

Robins when bright tried to say he'd caught covid for the 5th time but was spotted doing a modelling shoot for Lonsdale at sport and soccer

Domo · Nov 1, 2021

Just out of interest, cancelled a players contract, would that mean that there would be a figure negotiated for him to leave his contract? as i guess he could have just rotted in the bomb squad for two years?

Depends if we had any termination clauses .. Example , act like youre puff daddy and miss several u23 matches

Thats a very niche clause.

lord_garrincha · Nov 1, 2021

RIGHT... CAN WE NOT SIGN EX-LOANEES WITH BAGGAGE THE SIZE OF HEATHROW AIRPORT EVER, EVER AGAIN!!!

Away from that, who would you like to see come in January. How about bringing Luke Thomas back?

We could have had appearance based clauses by certain points in his contract ?

He was a risk with history

Currently fits the baggage category, unfortunately!

It's a shame really... He was as hard working as O'Hare is now.
