    Hard to say it's not for the best...he leaves us some amazing memories but I bet in six months they'll be tearing their hair out about him as well.

    Club No14 and predict more will follow … must have watched him against Killie as only time performed longer than I can hold my breath.

    On his day an exciting player who could turn games. As we all know, the days of top performances were a bit too few, with patchy performances more often the case. However, he gave us some good memories, not least the play-off games against Rangers, and I hope he does well for Plymouth FC who are a good club and well worth visiting and taking in a game should you be down there.

    Can't say I have any feelings of disappointment on his departure. Guy's had more clubs than Lee Trevino! Don't wish him Ill, but glad we can use his wage elsewhere.

    Could be a possibility. He was at the game when we played Killie.

    We have to learn sooner rather than later that we are no longer a pension fund for former players to see out their final years.Humphrey apparently didn't get an extended deal at Hibs because of his injuries so why should we accommodate him

    'Cos that's what our 'leaders' have chosen to do over the past decade - pay good money for old rope. Surely, the ones in charge nowadays have learnt the lesson?
