Obrien off?

[the sleeping giant]

Great movement and showed he could finish from time to time - also seemed a good bloke.

But very, very limited as a footballer. I'm still confused how he carved out a successful career at Millwall.

Hope he does well elsewhere - we just need him off the books.

 

[Stortford]

His hatrick at Blackpool was crap aswell.

No it wasn’t, 1st one was v decent finish, ok 2nd one was deflected but the 3rd one was good movement and finish.

Just because he is a limited player doesn’t make everything he did crap. He wasn’t good enough but tried his best, good luck to him.

I will always be grateful for giving me a decent night out in Blackpool.

 

[Mr B]

Good luck to the lad. Not the most gifted, but always gave his best when called on.

 

[The Cabbage]

Seems a decent lad. He’s symbolic of just how awful that transfer window was under Parky though. A player where he didn’t really know what he was, where he would be used and he was taking time away from the only two functional attacking players we had at the time. Pinned us into overpaying a big wage and was pushed through before the salary cap as a priority in an inexplicable manner. You could see from a YouTube clip that he wasn’t going to give us what we needed at the time. Alongside the lamentable chase for Graham it was just utterly woeful from Parky and - probably moreso than the mind-numbing football - was maybe the biggest contributor to him rightly getting the bullet.

 

[Onourway]

No need to slag the Lad off. He always gave 100%. Agree that he should move on though but good luck to him.

[Thunder Road]

Hopefully he does move on.


Nothing against him and hope he does well. Always gave 100% and can't knock him but ultimately we need better.

 

[Jokei84]

Nowt against the lad, he won’t be one of the ones who left without trying.

Hope it goes well for him, unless he’s playing against us.

 

[Red]

Good luck to the lad if he's off.

 

[ATS]

Why do we feel the need to slag our players off on here? Always seemed to try, good luck to the lad.

Absolutely this, it's awful, no need for it at all. Yes he is limited but he always tries/tried his best and that's all we can ask for of anyone picked to play.

 

[Wayne The Punk]

Good luck to the lad wherever he goes

 

[sir rowell cummins]

I want him to be replaced but I respect his commitment to us.

 

[Billy Batts]

Hope so. Wonder what's he's on per week? Must be one of the higher earners.

 

[Deleted member 22162]

I didn’t get much joy from watching him, glad he’s (apparently) coming off the books tbh

 

[bobpc30]

Nowt against him, I think hes tried here hes ultimately just limited. Wouldn't be sad to see him off, best of luck lad.

Certainly not the first limited footballer that has turned out for the club.

 

[scott934]

I still don't really know his best position, I feel like he was signed under Parky without any thought of how to use him. He was liked at Millwall so must be better than we have seen.

Quite a sad thing to do. Are we irrelevant in his fantastic career?

 

[The Situation]

Felt he was often better than many thought as the link man to Wyke last season, but ultimately we've outgrown him and moved on.

Good luck to him if he's off.

 

[Fetch Fletch]

Who’s slagging him off?
I’ve seen people say he tried hard, he’s just a limited footballer.
That’s not slagging him off personally. It’s just fact.

That's what footballer's socials are all about though, not memories or anything just which club are you at now.
