Gills players Aaron Brown and Efe Sodje appear to be on their way out of Priestfield.

Both players are on the transfer list and Stimson said: “Aaron doesn’t want to play for me. It’s not a problem and at least he’s been honest.

“He’s trying to sort something out with the chairman.

"At the end of the week I might have some news on both of them. I don’t think we’re a million miles away.”
