Having opted against staying with Southend, as Phil Brown was eager for him to do, Gavin Tomlin has found a new home.
Tomlin rejected a new contract with The Shrimpers in order to go in search of pastures new, and this has led him to League One new-boys Port Vale.
Losing your top goalscorer is going to be a blow for anyone and he’ll definitely be missed at Roots Hall, however you only want players at a club that want to be with you and sadly the 30-year-old didn’t want that.
