Has there ever been a player who didn't give the appearance of being excited about signing for a new club?
The ground?
The fans?
The professional setup?
The club being a sleeping giant?
oh .....
Just changed his name on football manager 14 to Knobhead McCuntwhistle. That'll show him.
No it didn't but he's only at the club until the end of the season.
What about attracting players on permanent contracts?
Clarke did say that Wolves stadium attracted him to the job where he will be better paid than before.
I'm sure the Scunthorpe stadium was what swung it when he turned up there.
Jesus, cut the guy some slack - always so quick to rush to judgement on here without knowing the facts.

I think there are any number of things we can blame the owners for, but this probably isn't one of them.
It does seem a bit strange, but then footballers can be a bit dim. Did he perhaps think he could engineer a move back to his home town club after signing the loan deal?
Still, if it's personal, it's personal, and I don't wish the player ill. There's no point in having someone who doesn't want to be at the club, for whatever reason that might be.
And Donnelly was only here until the end of the season? What about all our star kids - haven't they all recently (apart from Christie) signed contract extensions?
I'm sure the Scunthorpe stadium was what swung it when he turned up there.
The kids are already here though. Im on about attracting new players.
Playing in a quiet 4th division ground watched by 2k fans isn't exactly an enticing prospect is it.
It is all very strange, clearly it's the kid that's decided, not either of the clubs, would love to know why he's backed out and equally, it seems to be that both clubs still wish him to play for Cov, as he is contracted to us till May so now he is in the devil and the deep blue sea, he can't play for Swansea either ... bizarre ... what did put him off so quickly, home sick already .. .seriously, it's not the Sixfields debate so would love to know what ?
When riding the crest of a wave it's best to enjoy every minute of it rather than moaning about the past or worrying about the future.Short memory HF, not so long ago you were a two bit club playing in a dump. You wont always be riding the crest of a wave.
Oh and do you think Kevin Phillips came to Leicester for any of those reasons, as if so you are seriously deluded, he just wanted the filthy cash on his last big payday.

Of course you're right about KP, aren't all footballers in it for the money, with a few very rare exceptions?
My post was aimed at the person who believed the Villa player was excited at joining.
Not defending the kid but some 17yr olds may find it hard to move country and home if he's not happy im glad he's gone now and not when the emergency loan window had closed
He's 22 in 2 weeks ..?
Its hard to tell with him.
When someone trolls as much as him you tend not to take anything he says seriously.
Heard that this guy is genuinely a really talented footballer who would easily be playing at a higher level were it not for his past. What I've read so far seems to suggest he regrets it immensely and he seems to have grown up.Talking of players being happy, the new lad Mark Marshall looked happy in his interview and seemed like a nice chap too.
Excuse me; Sisu have funded our club for the last 5 years and without them we would have vanished without trace long ago. They are also going to build us a nice shiny new stadium free of that ACL rubbish from which all proceeds will be re-invested in CCFC.
Before I comment on what I have heard may I say I am embarrassed that my team CCFC have such a narrow minded, opinionated bunch of pricks as the people on this thread have shown. Many on here post under influences of some alcoholic beverage and have left school with less qualification than when you started lol. But the saddest thing is they live their dreams through football and their team, rather through their own endeavour. I have heard a member of his family is not well in Ireland and he wants to be near them. I hope you ALL are men and apologize when this story comes out.
