And if he decides the best thing for him is to just stay in our reserves and see out his contract, stopping us from bringing in a player we need to mount a real challenge this season, you're ok with that?Garrymanilow said:
To be honest, it seems from his own admission Gilbey has had some real issues with confidence since joining us. If going down a level and minimising your commute is the best way to build yourself back up and feel good about yourself when you wake up in the morning then that's the right move for you. We spend so much time talking about players pushing to be the absolute best but for some people just feeling good in their day to day life is important, and that's fine. He seems like a decent bloke, I hope he does the best thing for himRedhenry said:

Or choosing a L2 move over a L1 oneLeuth said:Imagine turning down the town of Lincoln so you can play in Stevenage instead. I didn't know I could disrespect him any more, but here we areWhat say do I have in that? He's got a contract that runs to the end of the season and the expectation is he fulfills his end of it. If he turns up to training but doesn't get picked for the team then he's doing his job. Not the best thing for our club but ultimately that's the deal he signed so that's what he gets. Just like we were raging when Taylor decided not to complete the games at the end of his contract we have to hold Gilbey to the same standard. If my boss suddenly came in one day and told me they wanted me to move to work in Lincoln all of a sudden I'd tell him to piss off too. Don't fancy the commute.Gilbey will realistically have to weigh up his odds of getting another decent contract at the end of this season. He's less likely to do that if he doesn't play a game all season so if a team he wants to move to makes an offer he can take that. If he'd rather take his chances sat with the u23s than drive three hours to Lincoln and back every day or temporarily move away from his family then that's his call. Hopefully this Stevenage deal comes through and then everyone wins1 -

Didn’t Bonne and his mrs both slag us off when he left? That on top of the fact 95% of fans think he’s a waste of space. Can’t see it happening personally.9

Probably close to being a done deal if Cawley's tweeting it.0

I havent had an update from my source since yesterday, but if the above is correct that would suggest we have missed out on the permanent forward I was told about.
Personally I think Bonne would be a very poor signing. He works hard and will press well but his interplay and first touch are shocking.

Hoping Bonne is an iron in the fire kinda thing and we are still on track for the permanent signing.Covered_End_Lad said:I havent had an update from my source since yesterday, but if the above is correct that would suggest we have missed out on the permanent forward I was told about.

So the perm striker has fallen through and Bonne is the replacement.
right.0 -
Perhaps we feel obliged to help QPR having mugged them off for £2m.....might just make Ipswich pay more to "see us off"!0

TBF, garners team is good at creating chances, not necessarily finishing them.

Bonne absolutely wouldn't be the answer to our issues up front. Would be a very poor move in my view.3

Gilbey is a 27 year old, it's not as if he's 34 and thinking about life after football.jbaker said:I think the majority of people just forget these fellas are just young adults. Ok probably mid 20s but still young adults who are finding their way in life. So much more comes in to a move than just is what is seen on the surface. I wouldnt want to be living in a hotel week in week out with no friends and family around me at that age. They also need to go and fit in with a new group of players all with their own agenda/ego and im guessing this isnt always easy. Yes by all means im assuming most of us would love to be a footballer, but whats to say if we were we would love the game? To some its just a job they are lucky enough to be good at. Ive just turned 35 and in the football world at that age your too old and retiring . . Its a short career for them to set themselves up with . . .you cant blame them if a move doesnt suit what they want. Clubs have a duty to pay the player the sums they signed the contract for . . just as much as the player has a duty to perform to the best of their efforts if selected to play. I dont know anymore info but for the sakes of the Gilbey debate, why would he want to move house out of the London area to go to Lincoln? Makes sense to hold out for a move that suits his lifestyle. if the manager doesnt fancy him and he isn't selected all he can do is train each day and give 100%, the rest is out of his hands.
If he's going to only choose clubs for the next 7 years, based on being able to commute from Colchester, which is pretty cut off from the football world in terms of available options, then he's really going to restrict his career.0 -
If so then I'm out.Redrobo said:Cawley says Bonne being considered3 -
So we’re loaning a forward who’s being kept out of a team we already beat, by an item furniture. Classic Charlton..0

That's quite random, 2 clubs in the same town/city being linked with the same player. Especially as they are right next to each other!MattF said:
Handy for Craig as he can visit both clubs in one visit...1 - Sponsored links:

I think I'd rather Leko than Bonne.19

Think Bonne would suit the new style better then Stockley .. he got better movement .
think there a lot worse we could get ?4 -
Our recruitment team just can't quite get over their obsession with ex-players can they.1
-
I’m really not sure if Bonne is what we’re looking for but that was then. This is now. More experienced than he was. New manager and teammates, who knows. His work rate is not in question but unless things have changed I’m not sure he’s technically good enough for Garnerball. We could probably do worse but I was really hoping for better.3

Bonne managed to score less than Jayden last season, despite being mainly a 'goalscorer' in nature, playing 10 more games than Stockley did, and in a team that finished higher up than us.2

If Bonne signs , Sandgaard isn't serious about getting out of this shit league.3

Please no Bonne, don't need to hear his shit song again.

Not that I particularly want him back but I've never understood the massive hatred towards Bonne. He's a player we signed from a National League club and he went on to score as many goals in the Championship as Lyle Taylor did. He did it in 11 more games, but he also didn't get injured playing in some nothing international and then didn't mug us off at the end of the season when he needed him most. He ended up playing in a team composed of kids most of the time, getting supplied by Aiden McGeady, and Albie Morgan on the left of midfield with Oshilaja behind him. His goals were the only reason we were still in the conversation at the end of the season though. The winner against Leeds, goals that got points off Fulham and West Brom, two goals to win us the match against Bristol City on Boxing Day. He would have been the man who kept us up if we'd been able to defend properly for 30 more seconds against Birmingham, he held up his part of the deal against Brentford before our late collapse and his 92nd minute equaliser against WIgan meant survival was in our hands on the final day. If it wasn't for a ridiculous set of events across the games (Barnsley becoming Real Madrid in injury time for two weeks, Luton getting two own goals scored for them against Blackburn) then he would have been the person who scored the goals that kept a penniless team of cripples and children in the Championship while the entire club boiled away into civil war.But he missed a chance against Millwall and he said that Championship QPR being interested in him turned his head while he was in L1 on a Duchatelet contract. That bastard. I'm not convinced he's the best option available to us now but I'll never get my head around just how much some people seem to hate him when he provided a lot of the very few positive moments in a horrible season.68

FFS, you wanted a striker and now we are linked with a proven Championship striker you have thrown your dummy out! 😉golfaddick said:
