Absolutely buzzing with this news. He was the one player, of the three, that I really hoped would stay.If Andy Summers and Stewart Copeland left 'The Police' they could have always found another bass player and a drummer. Sting was integral. I'm confident Biggo and Haks, while missed, can be replaced but Molyneux is the band. (Apologies to anyone under 35 for this contemporary pop music analogy).As others have alluded to, he gets it here and his relationship with the supporters was a key part of his decision making process. Something worth considering before launching a virtual, or vocal attack on a player for not performing. Your support is valued and it matters.Anyway. Great news

The three members of The Police were what made them the band they were. Sting has had numerous drummers and Dominic Miller on guitar for decades but it’s not the same as the energy with Copeland and Summers, imho…

Signed,announcement soon,you heard it here first
Really, really pleased. I think he will become a better player under Grant, as we saw once he shook off his injury & Grant gave him free rein on either wing.A better finisher than Jon Taylor was & his tracking back is a real asset for a ‘real team player’.Haks was ‘our luxury’ player since January & I wish him well wherever he ends up & hope he gets as much support from fans, game time & freedom on the pitch as he did here. Only time will tell whether his brief time with us ends up being the happiest of his career when he looks back.Biggins is replaceable in my opinion. If Grant says we have a ‘Tommy Rowe replacement’ on the radar that will do for me.Great business so far & we’re still in May!
Brilliant signing. Most important for me will be a like for like for Matty Craig
