There's such a tired inevitability about this that you have to imagine any slim chance of a new contract has now disappeared altogether.

I think it's got to the point where even a pay as you play contract might be a waste of time - at the minute he's taking up a wage and a spot in the first team squad that could be better used elsewhere. It's no use to him or us coming back for a game or two or then doing his hamstring again. Cheerio.
