Will miss him, but no way he was continuing on those wages. Hope the best for him.

Wish him the best has been one of the key reasons why this team has stayed up, welcome back anytime after he retires and should always get a good reaction from the fans

A 20% pay cut to a £100k per week player with, at best, two more years in him is nothing but a 20% pay cut annually to the average working man is catastrophic. And let's not forget, said player will still get that money irrespective of whether or...

I have to say for now I am really happy with how the club I have handled this. They have obviously offered him a new contract but on a reduced wage. When that was declined, they didn’t try to haggle or raise the wage to ridiculous levels. They...

It’s a job - if you could get significantly more money working for another company you’d take it wouldn’t you? Whether you loved your current job or not.

I'm absolutely sure he does 'love the Club' and he will look back on his time here as probably his best footballing experience. But as @ChicagoToffee says it's a short career - and I know it's exceptionally well paid (probably ridiculously so) -...

A few from today. My last ever visit. :( VV

Don’t feel too sad, feel happy and a bit privileged to have seen footy at goodison. The way so many folks speak about put ground makes it all feel worth while. That live rendition of Spirt Of the Blues was unreal.

Very sad day for me, Goodison has been such a big part of my life since1962, when I first went there, still that's in the past now, we must move on. Good result,decent performance,especially first half. We can't finish any lower than 14th now...

Gutted for him. Only goes to show that heart and desire aren’t enough by themselves. He’s given everything he could and more. Time to say goodbye gracefully (and accept whatever made up ambassador position we offer him).

Best place in the world.

Enjoyed the game. Pre match was out of this world. The walk up, the streets, the noise...absolutely real and unreal. Football wasnt bad and we got 3 points. The aftershow wasnt my cup of tea.

I've had three cans of Guinness and a glass of red. It's our 23rd Wedding Anniversary today so it'll be a bottle of Sauvingnon Blanc with a fish supper later. :pint2::pint2::pint2:🍷 💒 💍 🥂🐟🍟

Weirdly it feels like the season is over now, even though we still have Newcastle United to play.

Well played Illy, two great goals made it count for a fitting Goodison send off. Great vision and accuracy for our first and twinkle toe magic for the second. MOTM 💙 NSNO
