Here's what rent-a-quote Kelly has to say:
Massive surprise that, from the mockery btw
City manager Kelly said: "Obviously Gareth is a player I didn't want to lose but the club accepted the offer.
"I had spoken to Gareth with regards to a new contract but the move to Watford gives him the chance to play Premiership football. That is where he wants to play.
"In the end we have got the best deal possible for the club.
"Gareth is a smashing lad and has been a great servant to this football club.
"We wish him all the best for the future."
