Tabb on the transfer list

Last updated : 18 May 2006 By Smallsy
After releasing eight players yesterday, Martin Allen came out with some more transfer news today, with the disapointing but inevitable information that midfielder Jay Tabb has been placed on the transfer list.


Allen said,

"I have spoken to Jay and he has reinforced his desire to play at a higher level, with no disrespect to anybody at Brentford Football Club."

"Therefore in the best interests of the club I'll be placing Jay Tabb on the transfer list."


This comes a huge blow to Allen and the fans of the Bees who hoped Tabb would be presuaded to stay after a sucessful campaign.

Allen also informed the supporters of more outs,

"Following more chats this morning I've informed Isaiah Rankin and Jamie Smith that at this time I am unable to offer them contracts for next season. However there will be ongoing negotiations with both players through the summer."

Allen is presumably looking to start a fresh with the squad however if he cannot bring in the required quality then he has the option to being Rankin and Smith back in on short term deals.
