Has it?
Would imagine the club and Zanzala came to an agreement to pay up some of the contract

Nah; he did a job eventually that was all; thank him for that but need better

What if Zanzala wanted terminating and we agreed, surely we would have said yes but FOC.

looks like Zanzala might be off to Newport - and fans are not happy.
Here is the post one made on the EFL Forum;-

"Looks like Zanzala is having a medical with us today, don't know what to think about that!! there is a good player in there somewhere but to have your contract cancelled by both crewe and barrow and exeter not taking up the option shows there is a major attitude problem and i don;t think we want that sort of problem at our club."

Dominic Telford, Newports and league 2 top scorer hasnt renewed his contract, so probably why they are sniffing around him.

FWIW you'll really struggle to find an Exeter fan that says he has an attitude problem. His problem for us was finding the back of the net, but he was a handful for League Two defences. I imagine he'd have been at St James Park this season if we hadn't gone up.

I know he isn't popular on here, but there is a good League Two player there somewhere, and a change of scenery can do a world of good. He likes being the main man up top, and I think he'll be that at Newport.

I keep hearing that there is a good player in there somewhere. I don't understand that assessment. It's not just the incredibly low return of goals that he has constantly provided, it's also the hatfuls of [SwearFilter]-easy chances that he has squandered. The miss at Carlisle basically ended his career at BAFC but it was only one of many opportunities he has squandered. I think he flatters to deceive, but deceive he does. Accrington are the only club to give him more than one season and he gave them a goal every 5 games. I don't think there is a sniff of a good player there.

Newport seem to have a thing for Barrow flops. Baker-Richardson and now Zanzala. Weird

Thing is Hoss, he is an enigma. He has great physique, has pace when bothered to use it and his physicality also gets him a tick in the box. Can also on rare occasions score an outrageously good goal.

If you are the sort of manager that really rates yourself, you look at him and tell yourself that you can change him and get the best out of him. That’s why he attracts so many reasonably decent clubs and gets so many chances.

In reality he should drop down a league and build a reputation in the NL. That will only happen though at this rate if he keeps bombing out in L2.

All you can say on this at least we seen Zanzala play started off well then faded. Baker-Richardaon never turned up

Attitude problem?
A member of staff at the Dunes Hotel (the club's main sponsor and where Barrow AFC players regularly meet) informed me that Zanzala was often sat on his own on many occasions. Make of that what you will?
