    Good technical player but feel his mobility has massively let him down after those 2 injuries. 

    Hope he does well though.

    All the best.

    Good luck Jake! Thanks for your solid service of 128 matches for us and won’t forget your 20/21 POTY award season in a hurry. A class act with awful luck on the injury front last few years. Bravo for getting back from those setbacks and hope your next move works well for you. 🤞🏻👏🏻
    ^This^

    Hopefully he stays injury free and is able to claw back much of his fitness.
    He's only 28, which gives him time to consolidate at L2 level with a promotion fancied side and still have a couple of seasons back at L1 or even higher.
    His luck with injuries was awful, Sandgaard's interference with his selection this season did JFC great disservice.  I wish JFC a far better 2023 than I do skintgaard

    This time last year his absence was apparently one of the reasons we were so shit...

    Confused.

    He was a top league 1 player when we got him. 

    His first knee injury wasn't so bad, the second injury though has clearly really affected him. He doesn't look quick, sharp or fit anymore. That loss of pace isn't the end of the world, but the sharpness and match fitness requires games - something we cannot afford to give him as he'd be being carried and the work rate isn't there to allow it.

    Also Dobson and Fraser are both better players and he's competing now with Albie Morgan... Which shows his fall from grace.  
    Why didn't we play him in the u21s then....
    Who knows? I think he was disliked by MS, who pushed for his contract to be renewed so he could be flogged (as I understand it).

    So probably been isolated as part of that. 
    This is pretty much the extent of it. He (MS) got wind that a league one club were interested and pushed to trigger the contract to get a fee.

    Said club flipped him the bird and MS soon discovered that JFC wanted to stay in the South East and that a fee wasn’t going to happen.

    Garner was told he couldn’t have McGrandles and Payne unless two left and he agreed to JFC and Gilbey leaving. The paperwork for his move to AFC Wimbledon was messed up and Garner was told he could only be used for emergencies so that we could move him on in January.

    I give it 6 months until someone tries to push buying JFC back as a midfield option, even if he spends the next 6 months injured.

    The only bit that I heard differently was that Martin "offered" Garner MacGrandles on the basis JFC would be sold anyway.

    It was only at the 11th hour they were open to JFC going on loan when he (Martin) realised he wasn't as clever as he thought. 

    There was also a heated conversation, or two, that Gilbey wouldn't move to Lincoln and Lincoln wouldn't budge on their asking price for Scully.  A couple of other players were hawked about at totally unrealistic prices and someone couldn't understand why other people wouldn't just do what he wanted.

    All-in-all sounds like a very professional window and job well done.

    Unqualified.  Out of his depth.   And why on earth would MS be doing this when it should be Gallen's job!   But we ALL know the answer to that one!

    The quicker 'Hard-Shot' Sandgaard is out of this club the fucking better!! JFC could have been just what we needed this season if Garner had been allowed to play him...get his match-fitness and sharpness back. He is an intelligent player and I'm gutted to see him go and all because of H-SS!!!

    Farewell and thanks JFC.

    No doubt in the mind of some of our supporters you are suddenly better than Kevin De Bruyne and its an outrage you've been let go.

    I wonder if there is a clause that should Stevenage get promoted then his wages get paid in full by them.

    I have never commented on JFC and I am not suggesting that he is better than Kevin De Bruyne or that it's an outrage he's been let go. But my opinion is that we are better off with him in our club.

    I agree - there’s nothing to suggest we will get any better .  I still wonder who will play in midfield if Dobson is missing .
