    Wrong decision. We will need more battlers than ever this year

    My hearts says no, my head says it’s the right decision. Brilliant servant to our club and will go down as one of our legends.

    Always felt he give his all for the side, a loyal clubman over many years, not always fully appreciated but for me I was happy to see his name on the team sheet, thanks for the memories Joe and the classy farewell message, hope you find further success wherever you move on to.

    Much respect, certified Bluebirds Hall of Famer.

    Going forward, we will need a leader in the midfield, now that he and Ramsey are gone.

    I love Ralls and I wish he'd stay but he's extremely injury prone so I can see why they've come to this decision

    Hardly anyone stays at the same club that long these days - great loyalty. So many ups and downs during his time here. Hope wherever he goes next is a good move for him.

    I hope he gets a decent side, he’s still got much to contribute to the right club.

    You've said it all. Thank you Joe for everything that you've given to the Bluebirds. All the best to you in the future.

    Re: Ralls

    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.

    Joe never needed to kiss the badge, his performances said it all, as you said Bob, nothing phoney about Joe.

    Little bit gutted. All the best to Joe and his family.

    Re: Ralls

    All the best Joe. Thanks for service.

    Probably best decision for both parties.

    Re: Ralls

    Shame to see him leave, but all good things come to an end. I remember being sat in the car at Cardiff Bay Retail Park listening to him scoring against Hull on his debut. Still has a lot to offer at this level (thought he was older than 31), so wouldn't be surprised to see him at CCS this season playing for another League 1 club.

    Re: Ralls

    A really classy farewell from Joe there. Not a hint of bitterness, he genuinely wants everyone associated with the club to do well, even the new manager who had to break the news to him.

    Nevertheless, it's absolutely the right decision, and for Rinomhota to leave too.

    I think a League One club will come in for him, so it might not be the last we see of him. At the very least, an ambitious League Two club might see him as a catalyst to kickstart something.

    Good luck, Joe!

    I'm sorry to see him go. He's a leader. I wonder how many years he's looking for. I would have given him two. I can't see him getting a big money deal anywhere. But who knows?

    A great servent but probably best he wasn't retained as his influence on the pitch has been waning in recent seasons.

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