I'm surprised that by using just 3 words can show up how illiterate someone can be.SoundAsa£ said:

Unless they have been told your not playing under any circumstances, which I don't think is the case, they might actually rather stay here and try and play?Chunes said:

We have got at least 4, probably 5 or 6, cup games between windows. Other players will get injured or suspended.
Then you have got the scenario that if they think they are a good league 1 player they will stay and fight. If they know they are "league 2 at best" they might as well take the money for a year before dropping down a level.
The only one, for me, that it makes any sense to pay any of their wages and loan out is JFC.0 -

To be fair, I did consider Bromley but thought that might be a bit unrealistic. Roger Johnson ended up there.Cafc43v3r said:
Why stop there. Bromley, Woking, Welling, Dartford, the Royal Oak second eleven.cabbles said:Disappointing to hear Gilbey wants to stay closer to home. Hope Colchester, Crawley, Stevenage, Gillingham, AFC Wimbledon or Orient come in for him
None of those clubs could pay the wages he is on with us. If the point of "jogging him on" is to free up wages that's not going to work is it?
If the reason for anyone leaving is to free up wages they have got to go somewhere that will pay the wages haven't they?
I think we have 3 squad spaces left, the Gilbeys and MacGillivrays aren't going to bring in fees. If our hopes and dreams rest on Stevenage paying 30k of Gilbey's wages we are in for a bumpy ride.
If we are "jogging them on" because they are toxic, or to free up squad space then that's a different issue. As far as I am aware that's not the case though.
I don’t know what his wages are, but we heard Orient linked with JFC a few weeks back, which may be nonsense. I can’t imagine JFC and Gilbey’s wages are that far apart.If he wants to play, then those clubs may be an option. If his wages are such that they can’t afford him, then he’s only really got Lincoln as an option, or he stays and faces the prospect of not playing, or only making the bench.Obviously, I would like him to go, because he’s not good enough and we’re still short. His attitude and professionalism isn’t in question, I was just mooting southern based clubs that may be an option.0 -
Probably waiting for a payoff before deciding where to go?Chunes said:

Leaburn is going nowhere this season.JamesSeed said:
You may be right, but at the back of my mind I suspect Thomas is expecting big bids to come in for Miles, which he’d probably accept. Leaving us with two strikers, one of whom is (and often is) injured, the other of whom has a suspect back.eaststandmike said:
You can doff your hat to me as well, I said the day Leaburn signed a pro contract our search for a striker was over. Thomas aint gonna part with any cash for the likes of a StocktonAndyG said:OH BOLLOX !
I have just realised there are only 6 days to go until we all have to take our hats off to Golfie and say he was right for months ! Come on Thomas make it so it doesnt happen !!!It’d make sense to invest a bit, surely, in which case he might end up with a second saleable asset.
No matter what, he is expected to be a big star of the future in afew seasons for Charlton or a top club.

Would like a striker though and yeh, might end up saying not that one.
Isn't that how it works?0 -
Yes, but that’s not going to stop some posters moaning about ‘the moaners’.Six-a-bag-of-nuts said:

Gilbey bought a new house not far from Colchester last year; I know as he bought from a friend of mine. So not surprised he wants to stay relatively local.0
