He'll always do a job for us.

Hope he stays beyond his current contract.

Same, I bloody love him. He'll never be a world beater but I hope he spends the rest of his career with us.

Whet's the line from last season when he beat the Noses? The one about all being well with the world?

He gets so much undeserved stick from a few idiots but he so often delivers when it really matters.

Good on yer, Gabby.

There were murmurs that the new management were less than impressed with his application in training as early into the job as Oct/ Nov.

There was also that Daily Mail article that had him down as one of eight players considering his future a few weeks back.

I hope he's here the summer and beyond. We know his weaknesses, but he's the kind of player that if he went to another club would come back to haunt us. I want to see the best years of his career in C&B.

I think he's growing into the role Houllier wants him to play - and he'll always pop up with an important goal like this.  Get in Gabby my son!!

I think he's excellent, and if he'd played the majority of the season up front, we'd have been safe a lot sooner than now in my opinion.

Seems always to have been a little underrated by some; a trooper and some flashes of real quality.

Hes had a rough season with injury and all, and finnally seems to be gaining confidence in his favoured position again,
he'll be here for a long time and will have many more chances to do all of us proud.
GABBY GABBY GABBY AGBONLAHOR!!!!!!!!!
