    Can only assume he has another club or he knows who we are signing in January?

    or maybe he gave it a go, realised time had caught up with him and did the honourable thing?

    Maybe.

    But wages are wages until end of jan. I think he has something else lined up. Maybe if he’s travelling every day couldn’t be arsed to sit on bench and gave it up for Xmas off

    My guess is his injury would've kept him out for the rest of his contract and he wasn't getting a new one. So instead of us pay big money for a player not playing he agreed to leave.

    Or could it be the miraculous recovery of Reeves haha. More than likely it will have been a choice of Jim obrien or Henry till end of season, not wages for both

    I don't think it's a bad thing. With Akpan improving and Jo'B we have two able central midfielders and we need strength in other areas. May give us more ability to get some one in at the start of Jan.

    He was ok.

    Think he will have something else lined up.

    He helped steady a ship.

    Wish him all the best.

    I can't argue he wasn't great but he'd played no football in 3 months so to suggest after 4 or 5 appearances "his legs have gone" is lazy at best but realistically just plain daft.
