“We had an approach from Gillingham that we had to consider to ensure Glenn would continue to play week in, week out.
“He lives close to Gillingham and is very close with [Gills] manager Neil Harris, so those added factors that pushed the move, as well as us not being able to guarantee him that he would play every game, so he will go and get games until January, and we will look at the situation again.
