Sorry pal, didn't read your post until now. Bit stern what you're saying when in fact contract talks had been promised to Hakeem last August, then November, then the New Year but none ever happened, why? Was it the club's fault? Was it Hakeem's refusal to sit down and talk, I doubt it was or, the club would have put him up for sale in the January window.
The club have dragged this issue on for far too long and it serves then right but, at the end of the day it's us the paying fane who suffer as yet another good player looks like leaving because of contract delays......YET AGAIN!
