Ralls gone

[Former Labour leader]

Re: Ralls

Best of luck Joe.
Think you can still hack it in the Championship.

Re: Ralls

It's a relief that you're not the one in charge of contract negotiations!

Yup, to give Ralls a two year deal would be crazy.

Re: Ralls gone

For those who are sorry, do you really see him starting many games? He was slow at the best of times and it’s definitely the right decision in the long term. No one can knock his commitment and that’s why everyone will wish him the best.

However it is a club captain gone and in terms of leaders on and off the pitch it’s time for either for someone to step up or bring another one in.

^this^

I wish him the best of luck and thank him for his service

He could probably in a good side but not a mediocre to poor one.

Re: Ralls gone

Thanks for the memories Joe.

You always gave 100% and became a real leader on and off the field.

And that goal at Hull to announce your arrival was special.

Shame about the injuries that hampered recent years - but best wishes for the rest of your career wherever that is.

Always a Bluebird!

Re: Ralls gone

A real shame, I know football clubs cant have sentiment with Players, but Rallsy can play a number of positions and will give 110% all the time

I thought he might have had 1 more year the moved to the academy ( where he has also been know to show interest )

All the best

Re: Ralls gone

dissapointing... id have thought the new contract talks which would have way lower wages for L1 may have been the breaking point, he can more than likely get more money elsewhere

shame though, would have liked to have seen him giving his all to get us back up

Re: Ralls gone

Really does feel like the end of an era - I can still recall watching him score twice in a 2-0 win over the wurzels for the Academy team about fifteen years ago. I think football fans are good at spotting phoneys who put on an act with stuff like badge kissing, but Ralls was always genuine for me and the longer he stayed with us, the more he cared. Best wishes for the future to him and l’m sure he’ll get a deserved great welcome if he ever comes to Cardiff City Stadium as an opposition player.

Well said.

Re: Ralls gone

Gutted, he deserved a proper send off. I'm sad to see him go, one of the few I actually like

As I am sure they will confirm, Rallsy was also a brilliant Ambassador for our Disabled Supporters Association (DSA_ Always volunteered to help willingly and genuinely took an interest in fan issues

Re: Ralls gone

31 and his legs haven't gone like some seem to think. Sad to see him go. He's still very much championship level

a mistake to let him go imo

Agree, not that I know any of the players but he seemed a very likeable person and always gave his all

Re: Ralls gone

Proper legend Rallsy. Classy statement, exactly as you’d expect. I don’t think I’ve seen a player give as much efffort, maybe due to the longevity, but I can’t remember ever thinking he didn’t give 100% for the shirt.

Feels like he could do a job in league one, and his experience and leadership is so valuable. But wish him luck, wonder where he’ll go..
