    I'm pretty sure Gilbey will find out for himself next season that the Fourth Division is his level.

    I suspect financially Stevenage's promotion may have been good for us. Often they would need to pay a higher element of his wages if promotion was achieved. I suspect we would have made similar deals with Burton and Cambridge.

    Would love to know what his reasons are for hating Charlton

    He joined the club and was made a fairly regular first teamer, who then didn't deliver consistently under multiple managers. The fans didn't give him too much of a hard time or single him out for anything from what I recall. 

    I expect some of it comes down to frustration with the way our club was being run when he was here, which would be understandable. But to go and do that so openly just reeks of a lack of class.

    Makes you wonder what planet some of these players are on, particularly a few we've had this season.

    He sang a song about us? Remarkable considering I had almost forgotten his existence, even when in our team, seems we mean far more to him.

    Gross misconduct, straight sacking?

    Wasn’t he really close with JJ, no wonder he hates the club!

    The blokes a five knuckle shuffle merchant. I’m sure he’ll get the welcome he deserves at the Valley next season 😏.
  • Might just have put himself out of the running tonight for POTY.

    George Dobson was very close to JJ so no mileage in that theory. 
  • What an utterly moron. 

    Think he actually got off pretty lightly from us fans considering how poorly he performed for us so not sure what he has to feel so bitter about.

    Congrats to Stevenage from relegation brink last season to promotion this one .. Steve Evans, like or loath (I know the consensus on here) he is a bit of a promotion managerial maestro

    Shame we can't trigger an extension and make him train with the u-18's for a year.

    the weirdest thing about this is why a nothing club based an hours drive away hate us so much.

    I went to Stevenage once and can safely say it is the worst place I have been to in this country.  It was about 15 years ago but I fail to see it has improved significantly in that time.

    Genuinely a memorable place for its shiteness

    Good to have a manager at the club finally demanding a higher standard of the players. As a player, you can't control the talent you were, or were not, blessed with at birth (although you can work on it), but you have total control over your attitude and conduct. Jury is still out on Holden's tactical nouse and eye for a player, but I completely support his efforts to try and change the culture in the dressing room. They're not all wrong-uns, but there are a good few that are long overdue an ultimatum to shape up or ship out.

    It hasn't improved. Truly awful place.

    I hope they are well past ultimatum stage with Holden.

    I still feel bitter about having to watch him play 65 times for us.

    It certainly can't have improved. Steve Evans is there! Sure the kebab shop is doing record numbers

    Absolutely applaud the way Holden operates - and how’s he’s dealt with Bonne and Gilbey.
    Basically, you won’t play for this club if you’re a classless c**t. 
    Well done Deano. All bodes well for the make up of the squad next season. 

    Yes he’s dealt with it well but it’s quite easy to do that when Bonne and Gilbey have been terrible for us. If Bonne had scored 10 goals since January and liked that post he would be back in the squad and being offered a new contract

    It's not great, but I offer you Milton Keynes as competition.

    It is soulless at MK but there were some pretty roundabouts and the whole business park aesthetic is quite cool sometimes.

    Stevenage reminded me of 1980’s Thamesmead.  The geographical equivalent of a sweaty groin, or an armpit
