Yes, thought as much. Was wondering whether Stelios might be offered something but obviously not.

very dissapointed stelios has not been given 1 year, maybe he made it clear he wanted to be playing football and not left on the bench behind the likes of rasiak, good luck the little greek fella, I have a lot of time for him.

"its curtains for campo"

GARY MEGSON is hoping to persuade Wanderers' two longest serving players, Jussi Jaaskelainen and Ricardo Gardner, to stay at the Reebok.

The Bolton boss has opened negotiations with the two players, who will be out of contract and could leave the club on free transfers.

But Ivan Campo, Stelios and Andranik are now looking for new clubs after being told that they will not be offered new deals.

Wanderers' official retained and transfer list, which had been widely predicted, has now been lodged with the Premier League.

Now it remains to be seen whether they can persuade Jaaskelainen and Gardner to commit their futures to the club, but Megson is

determined to do all in his power to get them to stay.

"Jussi and Ricardo have both been excellent servants and are still very much part of my future plans for this football club," he said,

underlining his determination.

"Hopefully, we can get them secured on new deals as soon as possible."

Confirming the release of the senior trio of Campo, Stelios and Andranik, the manager said: "Ivan, Stelios and Andranik have all done well

for Bolton Wanderers and I'd like to express my gratitude to them.

"It's time for them to move on and I wish them all he best."

Three reserve teamers - Mark Ellis, Johann Smith and Les Thompson - who have all had spells on loan with league clubs, have also been

released as Megson paves the way for a major overhaul of his playing squad and backroom staff during the close season.

Promising youngster, James Sinclair, and veteran keeper, Ian Walker, have both been told they will feature in the squad as Wanderers go

into an eighth successive season of Premiership football.

For Campo, Stelios and Andranik, however, it is the end of the Reebok road.

They had all hoped to stay on, but Megson believes it is time to make room for new faces.

Obviously not, however I thought Andranik was under contract and would be leaving us for a fee!

 

Gutted about Stelios though, class act and a top bloke too!

Megson must be more confident than I am that he can get some mid-field goalscorers in. Stelios was very handy as a sub, eg Derby, Spurs, also thought that he had a good game v Atletico.

 

I just can't fathom why Andranik has supposedly not made more progress. He looked the business v Doncaster and Wigan the season before last. Since when he has had hardly any league chances and come to that hardly played for the reserves. Hope that it does not come to embarass us.

 

For me the jury is very much still out on Megson. I think that we would have been safe miles before we were if we had bought any sort of goal-scorer in the January window.

 

I know people quote Portsmouth, but our attacking play has been poor under him even before Anelka left. So I suppose I am prepared for another mud-slogging season to make the magic 40 points and enable him to keep his job for another year.

Im sure this is gonna come back and bite us in the Ass!!!!

Stelios was on big money for the length of time he spent on the pitch last year, always a handy option on the bench though. Andranik had two decent games against weak midfields last year, that's it.

 

Campo a Bolton legend, we'll be talking about him in 50 years sat in a pub with a half and the Daily Express.

waiting with baited breath who he is going to bring in.

 

thought their was another year in stelios,going to miss the little greek ,scored some important goals for us

Stelios was on big money for the length of time he spent on the pitch last year, always a handy option on the bench though. Andranik had two decent games against weak midfields last year, that's it.

 

Campo a Bolton legend, we'll be talking about him in 50 years sat in a pub with a half and the Daily Express.

Agreed.

 

If he was on less money I'm sure he would've been offered at least a year.

 

Sad to see him go, top man.

Agreed.

I agree with releasing Both Campo and Stelios as they were on 35k and 30k a week, a lot of money for bench warming, Ando was on nowhere near that, and was only 26, he was worth giving a 12 month deal

dont know if its been said somewhere before but why is that useless fcuking waste of space shithouse braaten not on the list :angry:

Andranik never good enough

 

Campo although a legend was finished - also Megson did not like him

 

Stelios SHOULD have been offered a one year deal

 

WHY was walker offered a contract?

 

The rest I agree with

 

The desire of 6 - 7 players kept us up not the team selections, tactics or inspired substitutions - STILL HATE MEGSON

Forget Jussi.

 

Big money contract, won't be happy to be on the bench.

 

Al Habsi is the future

dont know if its been said somewhere before but why is that useless fcuking waste of space shithouse braaten not on the list :angry:

 

because Megson is a useless fcuking waste of space shithouse as well

dont know if its been said somewhere before but why is that useless fcuking waste of space shithouse braaten not on the list :angry:

 

Because hes not out of contract p?rchance ?

dont know if its been said somewhere before but why is that useless fcuking waste of space shithouse braaten not on the list :angry:

I'm 44 in a few weeks so I'd be glad to be doing just that! I'd even be prepared to talk about Bratten in 50 years time.

No surprises there.

 

No suprises at all. Very disappointed about the Stelios decision thoe.

Stelios was on big money for the length of time he spent on the pitch last year, always a handy option on the bench though. Andranik had two decent games against weak midfields last year, that's it.

I'd agree with that comment about Andranik IF ONLY he'd been given one decent run in the first team in 2 years.

Hard to imagine he'd have been consistently worse than the various midfielders who've been given lots of appearances in that period.
