He's got a point, but... he's been as bad as the club by dealing with it like this.
He could have expressed his concerns to the club privately.
He's basically been receiving a charity wage for years now - he should be appreciative of that, but he doesn't mention it.
Yes, we should have treated the departure of him and Osman better, but given that interview I'm sort of glad we did what we did. Destroyed his cult hero status for nothing.

Not the people's club and everyone's a horrible businessman because he hasn't got another two years of paid training and bench warming.
Charming.

If he wasnt told that he wouldnt get a new contract and only found out trough the website, then that is really poor from the club. This seems handled very poorly.

What a guy.
Guilty as charged but only because you made meYOU DID TOO
That we should have at least told a long serving player what was happening before releasing the info to the public.
Just common sense professional manners that.

That's shocking treatment from the club. Regardless of whether you think he was a good enough player he is a human being. Any employer, whether it's McDonalds or Everton, should have the decency to at least tell someone they're being let go. Awful stuff and truly embarrassing to treat someone who's served 25 years like that.

I know mate. Its a joke.
We need to reestablish the ESPIRIT DE CORPS
Eliteism is what Everton Football Club is all about. Eliteism in winning stuff.
Medicority can do one.
People expecting medicority can do one.
If you are going to take part you should be doing it to try and win stuff.
We look after our own. But don't treat the place like a doss house.
Simple as that.
Why do so many agree that he deserved some sort of send off, or a chance to get a clap off the fans as a final goodbye?
The club giving him naff all shouldn't see them being vilified, he got more than he deserved 10x over by pocketing millions of pounds when he barely played every season. Give back all that money, then he can feel hard done by.

Didn't Hibbert and Osman have agents to deal with upcoming contracts or in this case ended contracts. Surely with little time left on the contract you would be knocking on the door to see whats happening. Sounds a bit bitter to me and I just cannot believe they didn't enquire about this and have some inkling of what was going on.

He found out, how? His contract was up. Didn't he know? And lets face it he had not been playing for the last year or two. In another area of life, you could say he'd been picking up his wages without working ... Did Everton not pay his wages during his more or less 'absent' last years?
I'm sure things could have been handled better. But, he should not be dissing his club in the tabloids.
