I've heard that David Carson has left the club and has asked to be released from his contract. Anybody else heard this?

On one hand, it makes sense as he'd want to be back on Tyneside with his family.

But on the other, it seems like utter bollocks as coming from the Northern Premiership to the Second Tier of Scottish Football is a chance that veeeery few get and would be an absolutely abysmal choice to throw away a contract like that.

Rather wait for word from the man himself and/or the club than take rumours like that at face value...

Moved to Rumour Mill where it belongs.

Still a rumour but, given how important he was to us last season and during our winning run at the start of this, it would, without revealing any personal details, to have some information from the club before too much longer.

As I believe the club i.e Billy dodds have dealt with this. Leaving rumours aside i think the club have a duty to tell us why one off our best players is absent. I look forward to the abuse of the cto regulars.

The Inverness Courier on Friday reported Billy Dodds as saying that David has returned to the squad after a family bereavement.

I am sure that absolutely everyone connected to the club will get behind him and support him after his personal tragedy. That's what the ICT family have a proud record of doing despite any differences we may otherwise have.

I am equally sure that his eventual return to first team action will be a tremendous boost to our promotion campaign.

Reurned to the main forum after the pleasing news that Dave's return is no longer a rumour.

What abuse was this?

 

Thanks. That’s a good interview by Duffy which also explains his own injury issues this season.

Great to have Carson back. 

Great to see David Carson back today after injury and him loosing his father.  Although not the full game but that will come when he gets back to full fitness, you can see the effort he puts in and encouragement he gives to other players on the pitch, well done today David 

Heard that it wasn't just down to Injury and a family bereavement that kept Carson out and that the rumour of him leaving was almost a fact.. Instead another player has left the club down to Carson giving the club an ultimatum. 

Delighted to see Carson back in the squad though, he's a proper team player and without him we look much weaker 

Not wanting to fuel the fire or add credibility to rumours, but which player is allegedly no longer with the club following recent events?

I am closing this thread as Dave Carson is back at the club.

There is a rumour widely circulating about a very personal matter resulting in another player being asked to leave the club but the appropriate forum for such discussions is Rumour Mill with due regard being had both to the rules of this site and to the law of defamation.
