I'd be pretty surprised to see him in another Ireland squad. So at this rate I think I'd like to see him come back and play here in the LOI. If he is still recovering from a bad relationship with alcohol then maybe living in Ireland would be a good thing for him even if it isn't as lucrative.

Shels do seem badly in need of someone who can score goals and Connolly desperately needs to prove he can score goals at some level. A European run over the summer could put him in the shop window again for a January move to the UK.

I'm going to guess Scotland. Somewhere like Dundee United. I think he'd score goals in the SPL, outside of the Glasgow teams the standard is a fair bit below where he's been playing (or often not playing) for the last five years. The money won't be huge, but if he wants to get games and rebuild at a more realistic level, that's probably his best bet. The right League 1 club might suit him also.

His career is a bit like a ride on the Orient Express ~ With Agatha Christie / Wagatha Christie ? !

Wins the race to League 1 between him and Obafemi by a nose.

I think this is a good move for Connolly - Leyton Orient are a well run club and Wellens is a high-intensity coach. Connolly will have to knuckle down and focus on football under Wellens or he will find himself out the door quite quickly.

Still time for Obafemi to say "Hold my beer" and end up in League Two...

Given his history of not lasting long at clubs this comment makes me think it actually might not be a good move for him.

Fresh start at Swindon in late January anyone?
