    The Hungarian daily sport headline...

    "George "gummy" Dobson heads back home to be with his gummy friends in toothless South east London." 
    Any pics from that publication?
    No idea, I stopped my subscription when they started their "Best Budapest Belly Boy" competition. Equality eh... So much better when they had "take at look at those budas under her vest" segment.

    Appreciate that Dobbo played flat out in his final games for us...unlike that snake Lyle Taylor.

    Dobson not coming back. Thought there was half a chance but was shut down.

    Wasn't anyone in the club. 
    But the issue comes from the club.. even with the manager rating him and liking him.
    What a stupid situation.

    Be interesting what we do if we fail to land any of our midfield targets.

    I guess for him he will also feel embarrassed to come back. I think he’s going to Wrexham

    'One of those' who keep people's identities private when they ask?

    Mate you come on here saying you know something, I ask from who, you then say not from club so I ask again well then who? You then say you can't answer. So I think like what happens a lot of the time that you know something but won't share it and everything has to be kept a secret and I think to my self what is the point of saying anything in the first place?

    Well, you could've said that at the start. Instead of dripping in info without any context.

    But thanks for sharing anyway. 

    Ps. But no need to get arsey when people ask you reasonable questions.

    Gotta be the agent then surely?

    Reckon the agent set Dobbo up with 5 figures in Hungary in one of those legally binding contracts that you can't get out of and trumps absolutely everything known to mankind, but it's gone tit's up and one or both parties have err got out of the legally binding contract that trumps absolutely everything known to mankind, so now he (the agent) is obliged to get him (Dobbo) 5 figures, or close to it, to save face and keep his client on his books. Same applies to if he returns to Us, the agent would look like a bit of a tit, so he's probably trying everything within his power to move Dobbo on somewhere else and, no doubt pick up a few fees on the way.

    Just my take, feel free to pick away.....

    As I said before just because he's suddenly a free agent, doesn't mean the club were going to change their stance.

    For argument's sake let's say he was on 4k a week. We offered him 5k a week to re-sign, but his agent said no, we want 8k a week. Talks stalled, and instead his agent went off and found a team in Hungary willing to pay him 6.5k a week, but the taxes are a lot lower so very similar to 8k a week. Dobson said ok let's do that, and signs a pre-contract with them. 

    Several months down the line and that's all up in smoke, and Dobson and his agent come back to the club, do you think that 5k is still on the table, much less 8k? I'd imagine they got told either "deal is on the old terms, 4k" or, more likely "we've moved on Dobbo, there's nothing in the budget for you now"

    I'm convinced Jones would've wanted to try a bit more than that, seeing as it was Jones who vetoed the move back in Jan

    @Addick_8 - When you say he ain't coming back, are you 100% certain?

    My source said Dobson would love to come back but realises he offers nothing that Connor Coventry can't do much better as a player and that Connor is also a much better human being.

    So George has turned down our improved offer and is heading for pastures new.
