Bye bye Darryl. Good luck with everything :'(
Other long serving players like Alan Moody, Tony Hadley & Ronnie Pountney have also suffered somewhat undignified exits in the past. And notable Tilly himself.
I still fail to see the logic of offering him a 1 year deal when he is probably reaching the age at which goalkeepers traditionally reach their prime.
I notice you failed to say "grow up a bit" there.........;)
Yep I agree here. I am quite ashamed this season gone with the handling of Maher and Darryl. Don't get me wrong I understand that the management have to think about the future of the club and its refreshing to see that. However, we should be recognising the greats of this club and the ones that have served us well in their prime.
I don't think I can remember many times when Darryl was a main factor in letting us down. Despite his lack of height I think he is an amazing goalkeeper and think that it is sad we only offered one of our most consistent players a one year deal when the new keeper who is 2 years older has been offered 2 years.
That's football life though and I don't doubt for one second that he will be missed by lots. Like I said before, if Mildenhill doesn't turn out to be reliable or consistent I think we will all realise just how important Darryl was.
Superb shot-stopper, in fact one of the best I've ever seen. However, other faults have become more noticable over the last couple of seasons. I think the management (as well as most other sides) have noticed his failings, and have decided to look at other options. Never forget what Bob Paisley said "if someone's going downhill, better for them to go downhill in someone else's side"
Good luck at Palace Darryl, thanks for the years of service.
He aint going downhill, Southend united are!
Why dont you just shut it. If you think you can do any better, why dont you become manager?

Laurie Sivell kept goal for Ipswich in the old 1st Division and was only 5'8"
If being Scottish precludes him from having any knowledge about goalkeeeping
