    Think it was the Oxford game - he milked every second of it - brilliant

    Delighted with this news, garbage player with a good attitude and should never have been given a contract. I'm sure the bantamsfamily is gutted

    If ever I wanted a guy to succeed it’s this guy.
    I will be following his career and really hope he makes it. Many players don’t work in one club and smash it at another. I hope we are wrong and there is an amazing player in there and not just a work horse

    Problem is, of those 5 or so released, we have probably saved about 3k between them. Its the wasters/senior pro's who are doing nothing that are costing us the most and most likely will be the hardest to ship out

    He’s actually signed for Real Madrid and they are loaning him straight to Bayern.

    I guess 1 game in 31 ain’t a bad return. Bring him back...

    He timed a jump a header perfectly against Accrington. Problem was, he was still playing against Rochdale....!

    There’s no getting away from it, he was awful and no more a footballer than I am. Just because he tried hard and he had a good attitude doesn’t mean he deserved to be at the club. Unfortunately for him he’s just another victim in Rahic’s fkin crazy quest to single handily make BCFC into the worlds greatest club using shit players.

    Kai was brought into the club by the clueless and amateurish people running our club in the summer.
    This signing and other ludicrous recruitment decisions may still cost us our League One status.
    Whilst I wouldn't single Kai out personally for criticism,the recruitment panel should have been held accountable.
    Thankfully that side of the buisness seems to have been rectified and we can move on.
    Kai was no world beater but other more qualified personnel should have known that from the start.

    Think some of the comments here are slightly harsh - yeah he wasn't great but he was thrown in at the deep end, a bit like Collins as manager to be fair. Both might have decent careers in football at a lower level but weren't ready for League One. Any of us would accept a big promotion in our jobs if offered it so he can't be blamed when he gave his all

    This is great news and was much needed. Another nail in the coffin of that ridiculous recruitment regime that brought us Kai and deemed Kilgallon as not up to it. Not the lad's fault of course and in many ways he's been just as much a victim as the rest of us. The fact that we've had to wait so long to get rid is testament to the utter failures of last Jan and the summer.

    Indeed. I want people at our club who do a bloody good job and will help to take our club forward. I don't care whether they try hard or show enthusiasm or do their best or are just nice people. I want people who are good at their job for this level and have the potential of doing even better. And that applies to academy players, physio staff, commercial staff, the manager, his backroom staff, the owners as well as the playing staff. In fact, everybody connected with the club.

    As much as I wish him well, I'm pleased to see him leave because he just wasn't good enough for what we need to progress.

    Not his fault at all. I don’t blame him one bit. But he should never, ever has been signed.

    Glad to see Hopkin starting to get rid of the deadwood. We need to trim the squad and use some of those wages on actual decent footballers.
    I get that Bruenker tried. But he was terrible and often stopped the flow of the game when he came off the bench, constantly giving away needless fouls. He is BPA standard.
