its obvious whats happened. He's training with them today and doesn't like it/confirmed his doubts. So has decided to come back and try and get in the side.

Id think that would be a step down for him and not good though we proberly wouldn't loan him out to another league 2 side! I think he just needs the games get his confidence and scoring boots back on

Think it's more likely he was 'persuaded' to go!!

Should have taken the move, regardless of wanting to stay and fight for his place, which is a pointless exercise anyway as it's clear he wasn't in Coleman's plans and doing this is probably the final nail in his coffin.

He'll get a rollocking tomorrow morning and I doubt he'll be seen in a matchday squad between now and the end of the season, barring some sort of crisis.

Suspect that he'll be offered a mutual termination of his contract in the summer, too. He should definitely take that and try to move on in his career because it's all been downhill for him since Beattie left.

is he on decent wages?

is Hunt still our highest earner? Heard Gornells wage matched what Hunt is on.

Good on the lad for wanting to stay - who knows, maybe him & Coley have sorted out any differences they might have had?
Hope his persistence pays off for him - I suppose only time will tell

Dav1d · 12-02-2015, 22:57

Yes it's just werid he doesn't fit in colys eyes under Beattie I thought he was one of the best players

You seem to know a lot about it!
So he should accept being forced out and ostracised of he doesn't go with a smile on his face, what a crock. If what you say is true fair play to the lad for standing up to the terrible twosome.

Joint top scorer irish international and a bright future a head of him,dont blame him turning down the chance to go on loan to southport.if he does go theres not much cover left up front. I do agree thou that he goes to ground alot.

Very strange u turn.
I can only think southport couldn't guarantee him starting every game,doesn't make sense to me.
The lad needs games and there's little difference between league two and conference.

mab · 12-02-2015, 23:55

Sounds better when you say your a league player and play for a league club!! And may be if he dropped down to the conference he'd be over looked by the irish fa...
