“I completely get it.
“It is not a popular opinion but he is 30-years-old. This is his final, big contract.
“He has not signed a pre-contract and he is not 21 – there are not going to be as many deals on the table for players this year. He cannot risk it.”
Mills continued
“His contract runs out and it is incredibly awkward and exceptional circumstances but I get it.
“I cannot say that I would not do the same thing in his situation. People talk about loyalty to clubs but if he gets injured are Charlton going to give him another year? Another four-year deal if he gets injured? No they are not.
“Put yourself in his shoes – wouldn’t we all do that?”
I don’t know about “all” of us doing it, I know a lot of people would always look out for themselves and there will always be people who look out for what they are committed to and it goes to show neither one of them are the latter.
Football is an all money affair nowadays it does seem like the passion is quickly leaking out of the game and without the fans there to watch anymore it’s going to feel more like a job than ever before.
