It'll be another week before he finishes his Christmas dinner so any talk of transfers are on hold.

Talk of Brighton being interested, even their fans don't want him.

Would imagine he'll get loaned out somewhere with maybe a view to buy or the loaned club taking over his contract.

He is done for here.

the key point in all this is if he wants to leave.

gabby do you want to drop down a league and take at least a 50% pay cut

or sit here on your big fat arse

He won't play for us again. Get him loaned out and let him try his piss taking attitude with another manager/club.

And another sad piece of hyperbole that makes me laugh far more than it should.

We all know he needs to finish Christmas Lunch by the 29th to make room for the New Year's Eve festivities.

Seen on the BBC gossip round up that three clubs in the UAE are interested in him, doesn't state what sort of clubs they are though.

Can imagine Gabby being an exceptionally good traveller. He'd have the time of his life playing abroad...

He'd be lost in Birmingham Airport and end up living there for a year like Tom Hanks in The Terminal...But at least he'd have a McDonalds at hand to keep him from wasting away

His time with the club is almost certainly at an end, he has traded on his supposed allegiance to Villa long enough without ever really justifying the hype, it has taken a dispassionate outsider to see this and act accordingly. Bye Gabby, i do believe he underachieved somewhat.

He'll be lining up against Villa next season for Walsall, Wolves, Cov or Burton

I'd walk him to the first services on the M6 myself, totally overrated and has lived on the fact that he was a local player for years.  Originally had pace and moderate skill, now just as hasbeen who grabs his weekly wages without giving  anything back.

UAE would suit him down to the ground, a nation built on sand, no class, no substance just a glossy veneer.

It has been a long slow painful demise over a few years but his time is up as a top flight player. I don't even think he would fit the bill as an experienced Premier league player for a newly promoted side in the summer. His petulant performance against Small Heath this season showed all the frustration of a decent player past his best.

Play him away to Sunderland as he's scored the last 3 times we've played there, then get rid.
