There is no way Whalley will play for Swindon Town again. Sturrock has the smae stance which was also applied to Royce Brownlie and rightly so (in regards to the Whalley that is)

I note he is in negotiations with our "chief Executive" (Is that still Starnes? Dont seem to see or hear much from him recently) over termination of his contract. No doubt the Lukas money will be helping with this. Great business there, sell quality youngster, use some of the cash to pay off useless has been.
Personally I'd pay him off with about tree fiddy and a kick in the nuts, but I understand that contractual law frowns upon such behaviour.

I suppose every manager has his own outlook on these things but I’ve never understood how league manager’s can afford to banish players from the squad because they ‘don’t fit the mould’.
I can understand when you have the luxury of a replacement and have no need to ever call on that player ever again but when you’ve only got two or three options to in a certain position to fart about with why handicap yourself further and send players to Coventry. Fuck it he may be close to retirement and may not have got close to first team selection but at the end of the day if the player is kept fit and willing to fight for a place it’s an option all the same.
At the end of the day rather than offer three years we should have let Whalley bugger off to Grimsby for more cash.

The contract offer from Grimsby should still be binding. Just send him up there.

Some odes to the mighty one himself
He's there, not here
With the mrs in Ikea
Gareth Whalley,
on Saturdays
There was a young man called gareth,
In football skill he lacked
This mattered not, because king the clot
gave him a 3 year contract
He hangs around the club for days
Passing the ball sideways
I've not got a clue what he's supposed to do
Except pick up a fat paycheck

...or even play 15 games and you get a year extension to your contract.
That clause appears every now and again
