Republic of Ireland defender Alan Bennett has fired a parting shot at Reading boss Steve Coppell after being released by the Championship side.
Bennett said: "The manager reckons I have come to a full stop in terms of my progress here. I think I can give more.
"I don't think I've been given a fair chance. But he's made up his mind.
"If I have to go and prove myself elsewhere and then come back, I�ll do that. Him telling me that I've hit a dead end has motivated me even more."
Bennett added: "The most disappointing thing is that people want out and I just want to play.
"It's been made publicly clear that some people want to leave, while I�m here busting my gut to try to just play.
"I want to play and stay here, but I've just got to look forward to the future - hopefully another club will come and take me."
