It is not really our fault that he is not good enough. Great attitude, good pro, knows his football, but he has not improved in the last few years. Whilst part of that is due to not playing regular football, he hasnt improved physically which is well within his control and been a common critisicm for him, and he hasnt pulled up any trees when out on loan. If he was that strong I am sure the likes of Charlton would want him back.
I like Hogan and I wish him every success, but he is not good enough for our squad at the moment and I think he needs to drop down a league for consistent game time and development. |  |

This.
Also, he's been out on loan to Wolves and Charlton, both who didn't want to sign him up.
Yes the club maybe should have improved communication with him, but at the end of the day he isn't good enough. |  | | |

hardly ruined his career, he's had plenty of chances to find a new club but hasn't taken them. |  | | |

Agreed as well.
Plus, while comms with him could have been better if the club were to have drawn up a to-do list at the end of last season no offence to Hogan but sorting out his future would probably have been quite low down the list... |  | | |

Ruined his Career????
He has had numerous opportuniities with us and has been on loan to Wolves, Leeds etc.
If he was good enough he would play.
The simple reason he doesnt play is because he is not good enough.
Too light weight, doesnt know his best position, too weak to play in centre, cant beat a man to play on the wing.
Lovely lad, great pro, excellent attitude and I hope he goes on to do well, but to blame us for his lack of progress and ability is ludicrous. | | | |

If anything we ruined him in the same way we did with Balanta in we took a very promising forward and turned him into a very average wide midfielder.
I suspect he will get a club when his contract expires but he is on a fairly big paladini contract (he got an auto rise after promotion) and if he was wholly focused on career progression he would have taken a paycut and moved on after promotion. I suspect he is another one of those who wont tear up their contract because its too good.
Must be his last year now! |  | | |

I think also that he was too nice, there wasn't enough edge to his game. I'm not saying he should be kicking out at all and sundry, just that I don't feel I ever saw a terrier-like desire to take the ball off a defender at whatever cost. I think that's what has cost him a place in our, and other, teams.
Let's not forget that he was one who questioned the lunacy in public during the 4 year Plan, though. Good on him for that. |  | | |

I don't get this
If he was good enough surely he would get an opportunity and as for not treating him well he is presumably still being paid for not being good enough isn't he?
Can't think of many other jobs where that would be the case |  | | |

I know a whole host of people currently on redundancy notice, I know a whole heap of contractors struggling like fck to get paid for the work they've carried out.
Hogan is what he is a young bloke who's an average footballer at best and who's probably still picking up a good bunce every Month.
Getting treated badly? come of it Bosh.
Getting treated badly is getting thrown on the scrap heap and not having the ability to feed you're family or pay you're bloody bills. |  |

They'd say we've treated him really well when you consider we should have got rid of him when we had the chance. Don't feel sorry for Hogan, he signed a contract knowing he isn't good enough, spare a thought for people working their backsides off just to collect the minimum wage. |  | | |
