..wow, didn't expect that. Tommy Oar has left and gone back to OZ http://www.twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-news/28923/winger-oar-departs-at-his-own-request Apparently he couldn't settle. This strikes me as very odd, only when he's just getting match fit. Looks like we'll be needing to dip into the transfer market now for a replacement winger. Any ideas anyone?
Ok, on to the next player I guess. Really homesick or sick of not playing? Complete change around from his Player interview a few days ago.
From the little I saw of him, another "meh" player bites the dust,no big deal.We continue to have a squad padded out with players who, frankly, aren't up to the job, as the two games against Portsmouth proved.
Fair enough if he's missing his family, but this is a player who has lived in Holland for a few years. Also, surely English and Australian cultures are more similar/adaptable compared to Dutch/Australian cultures? Either way, he is a player who arrived with a big reputation and undoubted quality, but maybe lacked the right mentality that McCarthy and our coaching team were looking for? It's a shame, because he looked like a steal for a club at our level and I expected some big things from him. He just didn't get the right number of games, for whatever reason(s) and I hope he will be replaced in this transfer window.
He couldn't do it at this level and like other players before him Im sure he will find a Club somewhere that he can play comfortably in, homesick? just not good enough? it doesn't really matter, he wanted to go and we were glad to see the back of him, no loss whatsoever.
A player with good pedigree.Shame he seemed like a proper football although not really shown it here. Bar Sears what I call 'proper' footballers haven't seemed to have done well under Mick here nor have any wingers bar Fraser, and if we manage to somehow sign him for longer than this season I will be amazed (and delighted)!!
Coz he wasn't given a fecking chance!! Instead we opted with Fraser, who although great, will not be with us next season!!
Jordon Graham couldn't get in our team whilst on loan, yet at Wolves he was fantastic, until bad injury. Footballers don't get much opportunity with us, if you have limited skill but can run around like a headless chicken and get stuck in, you are guaranteed a starting place!!
