    We sceptical scrollers need to stick together.

    It might not be Hourihane's decision.

    Well that came out the blue but looking at the players departing maybe some posters on here are being proved correct.

    I will miss the obligatory push in the back of the opposing player that resulted in a free kick on the edge of the 18 yard box :rolleyes:

    Where is the logic of loaning to a team who we presumably expect to be up there with us? Sell him by all means but how much is he on that we need to loan him to a rival? Christ. Rate him or not (and it's a "meh") from me it's a wierd decision.....

    Pity we can't move him on permanently but this is second best option. Let's hope we can shift a few more off the wage bill and start to reshape the squad.

    There’s method in their madness, if he is allowed to play against us I imagine he will see a lot of the ball being played down his side :p

    I’d honestly check his betting history don’t think I’ve ever seen a player who usually under very little pressure loves to just randomly play a suicidal pass or header into no man’s land to give an opportunity to an opponent- it’s quite a talent,

    Logic and Barnsley FC hadn’t been a thing for a long while now.

    Really appreciate the info mate. Please don't lose confidence in posting. I've seen other genuine ITK posters hounded off here before and they've been missed. It's great to have you on here. Continue to share and never feel the need to reveal your source!

    He still managed the most assists of any Barnsley player last season.

    No mention of this online anywhere, but people buy in to it.

    In fairness, if you look at the OP’s previous posts on here, they seem to genuinely be in the know. Not a lot of posts, but pretty accurate it seems.

    Decent record of assists but his crossing was so frustrating. He’d pull off an unbelievable cross one minute and then completely shank it into the ponty end the next. Suppose that’s why he’s in league 1 with us.

    Certainly wouldn’t want to play him in a back 4 and don’t think he offers enough to be a winger so no complaints from me if he leaves. Slightly surprised Stockport are sniffing, assumed it would be a lower league 1 side.

    Them on the County forum are blissfully unaware that we're attempting to screw them over again.

    Odd player O'Keefe seemed to have a spell last season where he looked decent for 3/4 games banging in crosses etc then woukd make a mistake and suffer a big dip in confidence for 5/6 games.
    His decsion making at times was his own worst enemy, good luck to the lad by no means the worst but not cut out to play as a RB

    He has two years left on his contract. Our choices are we either pay him to play, or allow someone else to pay him to play for them. I highly doubt there's anyone who'd want to pay us money to take him permanently.

    If Conor gas chosen the latter, then I'm fully in support of his decision
