Has he though?
He’s scored all his goals in an impressive 12-14 game stretch (including FA Cup) but not since and he’s been dropped in favour of Palmer.
Personally, I’d love to keep him but I’m sceptical if he can make it in the Prem.

He's not staying. Watford Co comms ex player tommy mooney said he's know him since he was 5. Said we've thrown 4 kitchen sinks at him to stay but he wants to play elsewhere.
It's done

As and when the inevitable happens don’t think we need a video of him on a chair going ‘as I said, it’s about the us, not me’.
Exactly. He doesn't want to be here.
Must be going abroad or to a team from relegated from the prem.
Didn't Mooney say he wanted to test himself higher up? Something along those lines anyway. Definitely seemed to know Callum personally. All fair enough in my book.
On the slimmest chance we go up he may opt to stay but if that did pan out it would be way less of a priority for us to chuck money at him. Players of his standard want to be at prem clubs and we'd have a much bigger pool to recruit from.
Good banter tbf, I was there last night and both Simms and O’Hare were in good spirits and found it funny.
Whatever happens with Callum he loves the place and the fans but as others have said it’s a short career and you need to maximise the income so expect him to be off.
On current form O'Hare is not being picked. If you are not being picked because of consistency why do you deserve to be the best paid player at the club? Love the kid but the clubs bigger, if he goes then good luck and I hope he doesn't get a Hamer move and I will miss him. Lets wait for the next hero.
O' Hare isn't fully focussed on his job in the team. He's playing for himself now and it's beginning to show . Playing to the cameras is all very well but it's starting to irritate .
Having said that he's a very good player and will no doubt contribute between now and the end of the season. Where he goes after that doesn't interest me but clearly after all the time the club spent on rehab after his injury he has no sense of repaying the club in any way . Coventry City isn't big enough for him.

Said this weeks ago, people were saying he needs rest being used too much I said run him in to the ground as he won’t be playing for us anyway if he refuses to play take his wages away. Use him like he is using us.
To be fair we were ready to flog him to Burnley before he got injured. And at that point he'd shown no desire to leave.
he has nothing to repay the club for
He’s had a good scoring run, but imo, he needs to get back in the goals and assists to prove he is capable of the big step to top flight football in England or elsewhere on the continent.
He’s a good player but some of his performances have been quite frustrating. In fairness, coming from a long term injury to playing as much minutes as he has done is taxing so perhaps all he needs is a little break.

The club showed massive support for Jody Jones but when his time come he was gone, there is no loyalty in football from clubs or players the same as in the real world, not that I am suggesting O'Hare isn't better than Jody, but it is a short career for them so if they want to go for better money/higher level thats their choice. He's been good for us very good at times but he didn't cost us anything to get him here and its a shame we cannot cash in on him but theres no need for anyone to feel bitter about him if he does go and good luck to the lad for the future unless he plays against us....
Not for me, if we have thrown everything at him and he has said he wants to see what other offers. Take our offer away or reduce it.
Start looking for somebody else and plan without him, we have had it before where we have pandered. (McNulty I think)
There never has been loyalty, contracts were different before . Players are employees not fans and I don't blame them for looking after no 1. As for Jodi Jones the club had a legal obligation.
I don’t know why we didn’t extend his contract when injured…. It seems a foolish oversight in retrospect.
I'm guessing if , by a miracle , we won promotion this season he would at least consider staying. That's what it's all about I suppose ..
I am with you on this . There comes a point where you have to plan without him because the chances are he's going to be gone, and if that means writing him out of the equation, so be it .
I suppose if Robins thinks including OHare will substantially improve our chances of promotion he'll play him. If he senses OHare isn't giving his all he'll be out.
What’s else do you think then? Genuine question, as he said he’s still at home and love meeting up with his mates after training etc but if you had the chance to double your money why wouldn’t you?
I guess we couldn't afford the risk of offering a 10k+ contract to a player when there is uncertainty of how well he will recover from a serious injury.
In hindsight it would obviously have been a good idea, but at the time we had no idea how well he would recover and what level he would be at.
Accepting that this one is a little difficult because O'Hare suffered a long serious injury which would have complicated things I hope the club moving forward does its best to secure its assets so others don't leave on a free.
Not being privy to what goes on I could be miles off the mark. Who knows.

The next on the horizon is Sheaf who has 2 years left so see what happens with him I guess. The rest of the new signings being tied down to 4 year deals, some of which have an option in our favour, is a risk if they don’t come good but well worth it if they do.
That was before Gyokeres left and tore the Portuguese and Europa Leagues new a-holes.
Hamer left, probably assumed the same but hasn't improved his stock in the past 7 months.
Not all dreams have happy endings.
Cal's (ill-advisedly) seen where players can go after excelling at Cov and probably thinks he can do the same. He may move to a European club (or Celtic) and do well as their pace is lower than the English game. He'll have time to do his runs and tricks. But if he moves to the Prem, he'll end up like Hamer. Getting paid a lot and struggle, not having the ability to change games.
And they had the same obligation looking after O'Hare, duty of care as an employer
Some of the criticism of him on here are shameful.

We made one last throw of the dice a few weeks back
Top earner alongside the other one but with heftier bonuses
It was rejected as he already knows where hes going
Fuck him

Not surprising he’s been dropped at the since he rejected it. We move on.
