    First and foremost ..... THANKS!

    Thanks for the professionalism, thanks for the effort, thanks for the leadership and thanks for being an integral part in the most memorable calendar year in BFC history!

    If you decide to leave for pastures new and the opportunity for a substantial salary increase I don't blame you, it makes perfect sense and you have to look after your own interests .... the career of a footballer is short & personally I'd consider any increase in wages if it meant financially securing my family's future!

    You will always be fondly be remembered as one of the clubs great players but here's food for thought .....

    1. I think you are better & you can do MUCH better than Aston Villa!
    2. I think you have a MUCH better chance of playing premiership football next season WITH US rather than Villa!
    3. Back to back promotions leading us into the premiership ... you would go down in Town folklore along with messrs Glavin & Redfearn.
    4. See out the season with us ...you stock is only rising as every week passes!
    5. Negotiate a contract extension with the reds now ...double your wage for the next few months and stipulate a clause to protect yourself which allows you to leave at the end of the season should we NOT get promoted!

    If the reds don't get to the premiership this season then choose your club in the summer, there will be far more options and I honestly believe prem clubs looking for your services!
    If we DO get to the premiership, fill you boots, get the salary you deserve with US & become a Barnsley legend!!

    Back to how I started ..... Whatever you decide is right for you I'd just personally like to say .... THANKS!

    Or just stay for the rest of your career you will still make more than a million quid anyway and your family will still be well off.

    Barnsley loves you more than you will know
    Wo wo wo
    God bless you, please, Conor Hourihane
    Heaven holds a place for when you play
    Hey hey hey, hey hey hey

    We'd like to know you’ll stay a little longer ‘cos your wise
    We'd like to help you earn more for yourself
    Look around you all you see are sympathetic eyes
    Stroll around the grounds, it’s here you feel at home

    And here's to you, Conor Hourihane
    Barnsley loves you more than you will know
    Wo wo wo
    God bless you, please, Conor Hourihane
    Heaven holds a place for when you play
    Hey hey hey, hey hey hey

    Put it in the corner where no keeper ever goes
    To the Ponte, you're our left footed King
    It's a little secret just the Conor-Reds affair
    Most of all you've got to hide it from the pigs

    Koo-koo-ka-choo, Conor Hourihane,

    Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
    Thinking of the Villa or Reds debate
    Laugh about it, shout about it
    When you've got to choose
    Stay with Reds or you and us all lose

    So you should stay, Conor Hourihane
    Our Red Army turns its loving eyes to you
    Wu wu wu
    What's that you say, Conor Hourihane
    You will not yet leave or go away
    Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

    Replace 'Heaven holds a place for when you play' to 'Oakwell is the place for you to stay/play'
