Must be over the moon, holding out for his dream move to Blackpool.

Hey, it's not like he doesn't know what it's like to play for mid table third division team already.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.

But how does it feel to lose twice in the big mid table clashes of the season.

I'm sure he's shedding bucketloads of tears for your astute, cutting observations of him.

Stupid comment.

Of course, he should have signed for the mighty Ipswich!
We showed him, eh?

He clearly thought he was too good for us and held out for a better move, and it didn't work out. It is a little amusing. Did he move downwards? Not necessarily, but he didn't get what he wanted in an upward move

To be fair, looking at this we, or rather you know who, didn't make much of an effort to keep him here as it was 'assumed' he would move on to the Championship.

Assumed.

Very good point, very road leads to Lambert.

Think he was a victim of the salary cap. If I remember correctly, he was all set to go to Sunderland but then the cap came in and they pulled out of the deal.

And if we valued him we could have followed those proceedings.

Or maybe he or his agent could have made it known he was still available.

It does seem a bit amateurish to not be keeping tabs on these goings on though.

I think he was thinking Championship initially, then Sunderland (plus we didn’t think he’d be in league 1 - as Jeera has pointed out.)

It’ll matter not when our own young left back regains full fitness. Tristan Nydam is a very good left back. And if Kenlock continues his current form, we have two very able left backs already at this club,

Probably lives near the area having been on Everton's books. Wages probably similar so why move to Suffolk

You are missing the point. We didn’t try and sign him as we (Lambert or Evans) thought he would be playing at a higher level. We didn’t bother.

Agree with you however I was looking at it from Garbutt's point of view. Rumours were that he was on £26k a week at Everton so not exactly skint, so possibly put his family first especially if a championship move wasn't forthcoming.

He took about £7m+ in wages from Everton making half a dozen or so appearances in about a decade. Everything wrong with football this type of situation. I remember him getting released and Ancelotti didn't even know who he was.

You all leave Garbutt alone; he is doing well.

On FM20 Everton released him at the end of season 19/20 so I signed him on a free.

Am now up to the end of March in season 20/21 and with six games to go Garbutt is my leading goalscorer with 21, albeit that about six of them were penalties. Am second in the Championship largely thanks to his goals so I won't hear a word against him.
