Players on Free's
White Noise said these:
Andrew Johnson
Danny Murphy
Bjorn Helge Riise
Pavel Pogrebnyak
Sky Sports Free Transfer List:
Jose Bosingwa, Salomon Kalou, Ledley King, Louis Saha, Carlos Cuellar, Emile Heskey, Ivan Klasnic, Andrew Johnson, Danny Murphy, Fabio Aurelio, Owen Hargreaves, Tomasz Kuszczak, Michael Owen.
To let murphy go is a big mistake and a dreadful way for him to be treated.AJ couldn't stay fit at any point.
Fulham release.. Andrew Johnson, Bjorn Helge Riise, Pavel Pogrebnyak & Danny Murphy.

@ODeaFfc not yet sky sports just read a list of every players released in the prem.. its on the Premier League website apparently
Is it officially released or just contract come to an end?
If it's the latter it doesn't mean we aren't in talks to extend, just that the contract itself is up; quite different. They've been free to speak to other clubs for 6 months.
Expected Pog to be signed up.
AJ was a cert to go and no surprise about Riise jnr and to be honest from seeing some of Murphy's wife's tweets I'm not that surprised he's gone either.
Not saying it's the right decision to let him go and would have like to see him stay on one more season with a coaching role. Poor treatment by the club in my opinion. Has been a great player for us and a loyal servant. Will always remember him for his header at Pompey that kept us up!
Still I will await the official confirmation from the club first. But those are my initial thoughts.
disgusted with murphy being released. So what if he did not have the legs to play every game.The only player on the pitch who barked orders and set up some nice plays....i hope to god we have a sublime player coming in as apart from sidders and diarra we have no one...(im predicting dembele and dickson to be sold) kasami and gecov are not there yet
and i predict brede for captain???
Fulhamfc.com: First with the news.
Expected AJ + Riise to be off. Murphy and Pog a surprise, although obviously had been mooted. Be interesting to see who the club have lined up as replacements. I'm assuming replacements are in the pipeline simply because not to have done so would be gross incompetence and that's something you can't accuse the Board of over the last few seasons.
So long to all, and thanks for your efforts lads. Have some good memories of all of them in the black and white.
Sounds like Sky Sports were reading out players from The Premier League 'Free Transfer List 2011/12' -

I bet anyone on here £10 that Murphy will be here next season.
Grygera gone too. That didn't last long..

With everyone as our witness - deal!
Just cannot believe the news about our great captain. Age aside he made a huge contribution last season and to the end we just did not look the same team without him. I'm really shocked and so sorry to see him just cast aside like this. Not greatly surprised about the other three however. Though if the team loses the goals contributed last season by Deuce Dempsey, the Pog, Andy Johnson and Bobby Zamora it doesn't leave a great deal does it?
ledley king is on the spurs list..surley a typo?
There is no way the club would release our captain without a massive thank you on the official website. This just means his contract is up. He'll sign for another year.
Can someone tweet Dannys wife to confirm he's gone or going?

Its just an official list of players who's contracts are up. Ledley King is on it as well so do people think he's leaving Spurs?
Lazy journalism surely? Contracts doesn't even end until the 30th of June, and I very much doubt Fulham would be letting the Pog and Murphy go with at least a month left to get to terms with them.

And when I lose I will boast that my tenner kept Danny at the club.
Ledley King just relased by Spurs according to BBC News 2 minutes ago
Emile Heskey's available. Anyone fancy that one? yee-haw!

on wikipedia and google he is stated as a free agent having been released
I'm now taking this news with a big pinch of salt as some player on that list haven't been released i.e. Paul Scholes.
So I guess we will see when the official announcement is made by the club.
Not all contracts run to end of June - just most,
Its an official list of free agents.
If they are a free agent and no longer under contract to the club then surely they are no longer FFC in any respect?
Pretty sure clubs can retain players out of contract players unless they choose to leave or the club release them.
How about we all wait until the club officially announces who has left the club?
Is that not usually the best procedure - 'its not official until on the ffc website'

I think they can retain their registration.
Released or available is two different things. This list has a lot of players who are available because the FA's redtape says so. But Scholes is on it for a start and he's been offered/signed a one year extension.
Anyway Rodellaga and Guthrie would be two tidy pickups.

Absolutely.
Or a donation to the running of this site.
A donation to this site would be good.. I'll up the PayPal account limit as I can see it being a rather big one ;-)
will defo wait until anything is released officaily as Ledley King said just today he will decide what he will do during pre season after being offered several roles at the club including as a player
Out of contract means no wages, but presumably they all have enough in the bank to feed the kids for a while. Can only hope, in the Murphy case anyway, it's just that everyone's still on holiday. Any resolution will presumably be soon if it all.

I think it's a list of players whose contracts will be up this summer, not a list of released free agents (ie the club has declined the oportunity to extend the contract or the player has rejected the final contract offer from the club). Why else would the likes of Jääskeläinen, who Bolton wants to keep, and Scholes, who has actually already signed an one-year-extension, be on that list?
In other words, this list reveals nothing new. Just what we've all known for some time, that the mentioned players contracts will be up this summer unless new deals are struck.

Paul Scholes isn't on the list.
The website somebody posted was the all the players who have been on a free (Scholes was on a free at one point then Fergy gave him another contract) on the sky sports TV channel it labels all the free players.
I will post the list which Sky Sports gave in the topic.
This is the list Sky used isn't it? -

BBC TV News just said Danny Murphy released and mentioned others like Owen, King etc.
It's just a list of players for whom their contract was up today. Whilst they don't have a contract it doesn't mean they are all necessarily off or not staying on.

The list Sky Sports TV channel gave doesn't have half of them players on, it doesn't say Pogrebnyak.
...Noon today was the deadline to renew season tickets - call me a cynic...
Players contracts can keep rolling over month by month until a decision is made. This is what Im sure is happening. No way would Fulham release Murphy without a big article on the Official. At least I'd hope not.

Clever work by the club. Now those players will have to pay top whack for tickets to see Fulham.

Isn't Danny off on holiday to Greece today (according to his wife's twitter?) Does that mean that there won't be any further contract negotiations for a while yet?
Copy and paste from BBC website:
1512:
FOOTBALL
The Premier League releases a list of players whose contracts are set to expire this summer. Ledley King's name is there, although the defender is keen to remain at Tottenham in some capacity.
---------------
Calm down everyone, it's just a list of contracts that expire this summer. :dead horse:
Just found this on NewsNow, which seems to confirm that AFC has won the tenner

can somebody Tweet her and tell her we don't want Danny to leave. I don't tweet or facebook I'm afraid so can't do it myself.
I thought her message might be to do with Simon Peach's tweet saying negotiations were ongoing, meaning they weren't but she confirmed it was to do with premature stories saying he's off.
It's not definate one way or the other if he's staying or going but it does appear he's still negotiating with the club and she's well aware that people don't want him to leave.
@joannataylormum a lot of people misinterpreted the Out of Contract List as a released list so everyone thought he was released. False alarm
I hope I marry a woman that's still as beautiful as Mrs Murphy when I'm his age. Not connected to this at all, but just thought I'd chuck it out there.
I think the Pog will sign for us before the Euro's and hopefully the club will see sense and ensure Danny is with us for another year. I think after that he'd be happy to start coaching and I hope that role is also with us.
Even if the Pog does sign, that really means we only have him and Sa so I think we need another 2 strikers on the books.

He's only about 35 isn't he, although I must admit he looks older. I'm sure there must be loads of men that are 35 that have wives that are good looking, therefore I'm sure you will.
Please people , don't act like Lemmings , one person spouts something , no one checks and everybody follws them over the Cliff.
Sky have a list which they title 'Players Released' BBC have the same List and title it 'Players out of Contract'.The Sky article has some narrative before the 'Released list' in which it states ;
''It is understood that Fulham are still in talks with Danny Murphy and Pavel Pogrebnyak about extended stays with talks on-going and offers made to the key duo.But the Cottagers are not in discussions with striker Andrew Johnson, midfielder Bjorn Helge Riise or defender Zdenek Grygera about new deals, and they are set to leave Craven Cottage''
So stop all the wailing and accusations aimed at the Fulham board, it is the same situation as it was at the end of the season other than Grygera who was to prove his fitness which looks like he may have suffered a setback in his recovery. I'm sure both players and their agents are trying to iron out the best deal they can and Fulham are doing likewise.I'd expect no less from either party

Contract come to an end.
We haven't released anyone yet, the list is of players out of contract.
