SSN reporting that he said he would leave if we go down.

Championship player at best, who's he kidding

Yep . Bang average so wouldn't be remotely bothered if he didnt sign a new deal

Same. Like the bloke and he is a good player, but we still need better than him if we stay up.

Exactly Kevin, we'll need much better and think he's well over paid but at least he's working for it.

love joey but i think he is saving face here. there is no way he will get a new contract for more than 30 k per week. he has probaly been told by the club to wait till the summer.

If the wages & contract length is right he's a good player to have. However I wouldn't worry if he left

Squad player at this level at best. Last season proved his level.

Jesus. He's not that bad! Probably overpaid (but who isn't down the Rangers) - but he's a reasonable player...... Certainly for us. And he does clearly care for the club.

However. He'd be a much more effective player if he took his ego out for a shyyyte - and stopped trying so many bl00dy Hollywood balls and set-pieces......

Also, I think that Joey has to realise, that despite his rather "reformed" character of late, the vast majority of PL clubs won't touch him with a bargepole.

if we stay up he'll signs and i don't have nothing against that

On his form so far this season I wouldn't be gutted if he left and his 70k pw wage went on two younger players.
