Is George still at the club, or has he been ‘let go’ as well?
Probably not one for the George Dobson thread - but I think I saw a post on Instagram from George that he was leaving on Saturday. Various players had said farewell in the comments.

Able to find the post?
Just searched for a while and can't find it for the life of me, can't find his personal account either as there are so many George Jones' in the world - I only saw it because he'd tagged the #cafc hashtag.
I swear it was him though as he'd put up a selection of photos through his time here going back to Bowyer and the playoff season etc and as I said a bunch of players had wished him the best, Sean Clare etc

There is nothing on his personal twitter since February but don't think this is the right thread.
We can activate a further year at the end of the season. Same for CBT and AMB.
We should activate it now. He was phenomenal last night. I chatted to him last season and he was loving it here and felt he was at home with us and wanted it to continue. Whilst that was a politicians answer it does make sense as he’s an Essex boy and West Ham fan.
sometimes a player just fits in at a club and It’s great when that happens. Hopefully we can encourage him to stay a while
His effort and workrate is phenomenal, last night it was good to see others are also doing a bit more. Kirk worked very hard last night, for a "lazy winger".
You look at him and see a lad who is ready for a night out in Brentwood High st, then hear his squeaky voice and probably start to take him lightly. Before you know it, crunch! Distribution was good yesterday.

True! Meant the grooming of the hair, which is big thing when hitting the almighty Slug and lettuce you know!
Players like George Dobson you sign up for as long as you can get away with and make them a club legend. He is such a good reader of the game for someone his age
I was saying to seth plum at the game - I don't think Garner turned up and expected Dobson to be in his starting midfield, but he's been in for the shock of his life. The kid can actually play? Like that?
Every successful team has a really good one who does his job - City had Fernandinho and now Rodri, Leicester and Chelsea reaped the benefit of having Kante and of course the England World Cup winning side had Nobby Stiles albeit not quite in the same role. They don't get the headlines because they aren't caught often at the other end of the pitch but the team, invariably, suffers when they aren't around.
It would be folly if we don't get Dobson to sign an extended contract. The issue is that TS is an expert when it comes to "folly" - price and value springs to mind - and he might have to offer a little more to get him to do so because, if we are noticing what he brings to the team, you can be sure that some Championship sides will have done so. And his agent wouldn't be doing his job if he didn't look at those avenues.
I will admit to being of the view that Dobson is very good at what he does but is quite a limited player and doesn't have the all-round game to play at a higher level. My word has he proved me wrong in the last few games, his passing has been forward, with intent and absolutely pinpoint. He's shown real vision when moving the ball forward too and seems to be getting himself in better positions too. Wouldn't be surprised to see him bag a few goals as the season goes on.
This is on top of what we all know he can do, the defensive shielding work, breaking up play, tackling, interceptions reading their attacks etc. etc.

We always seem to activate extensions after the season has ended, I expect there’s a short window it can be done in. If it could be done at any time I imagine we’d have done it by now.
