View Full Version : Ollie- Judas or not?

spot on. he will be a big loss, but better have someone there who wants to stay at the club. If ollie had been forced to stay, he would have been disinterested and no great use to us.

So we're all agreed then; we are lucky that Ollie has finally f€ccked off & Shels are screwed now that they have such an inconsistant player! ;)

NOOOO ****ing way do i agree with that,
that seems to me like people clutching at straws.
we have lost our best player for the last 5 years +
how can that be a good thing?
with gunther at the helm and no ollie..div 1 here we come..
WHY? whereas ollie might have saved us ...gotten us a few wins last year..whothe**** is going to be able to rise aboive the mediocracy of the team and get us those wins now
I for one am not happy with him gone and i think the rest of ye are gone a bit mad in the head.. ( not you joe.. dont wry boss):D :D

i hate morley.. i love morely.. i hate him... i love him.. i hate him/ but hes a class player
ollie: we're screwed without him dont go ollie......to now where we have eanna is glad we have lost our best player, and match winner..
UNfcukinBELEIVABLE
I'm not denying he's a big loss, but at the end of it all, he was never as consistent as he should have been, and he was only 1/11th of the team!
For only about the 50th time, I never said I hated morley, and I never said I loved him- it's just another story you're after drumming up in your head.

Am I right in saying that played in every game last season, but only scored in 5 of them?
think so troy, didnt he get 6 or 7 goals though.. but yea AFAIK he played in every game
i mean we were a **** poor team for most of last year and its very hard to raise your game when the team is ****e, the manager is ****e and the crowd are on your back and discontented.. not to mention the shambles of a club we were
ollie for him is better off away from city even though i'd love him to have stayed and cant imagine us doing anythingf at all without him next year..
this whole no one man is bigger then a team line.. is and it isnt true.. take ollie out of last years team.or any city team from the last 2/3/4 years..(even an inconsistent ollie) and what had we..
asa match winner / attaacking force..
NOTHING
but of course taking ollie out of the side might give others the chance to shine and take on responsibility...
so the question then becomes which one of them can do it, and would they be as effective as ollie.. and while this until next season remains unanswered... i for one without billy woods to replace him ..hold very very little hope

ROLMAO.
I wonder is it a short or long term memory thing?
;)
hahaha pete
nice one :D :D
I may have said it above, but MAYBE we are better off without him in the long term. we have depended on him far too much, and as a result not worked as a team. Now maybe we can play as a team a bit more.
However, Id far prefer if we had a manager who had the managerial acumen to be able to use such a good player as Ollie properly. But then thats just wishful thinking isnt it?

I feel that ever since Colin Snr did his knee in the year we won the cup, the team has been bery lobsided to the left, and put too much pressure on Ollie. Now that he has gone, we can have some balance, even though it would of course be better if we could have 2 good wingers instead of none. We'll have to see how Mucky comes along.

Mucky with a little experience certainly has all the makings of a very useful winger and two good wingers would definitely be better than one.
I agree with GWA that a manager that can actually manage would help, but there aren't too many of them around. Those that are there are Dubs or wouldn't want to come and manage the shambles that is Cork City FC at the moment!
Murphy Out Now!!

Amazing that everyone was crying for Ollie not to go but now it's better that we don't have him. Strange ain't it??
I'm really sorry to see him go, because he is a great player, but there's no point dwelling on it- he's gone and thats it.

I for my part was being sarcastic, but as Eanna said, there's no point dwelling on Judas, sure didnt he end up hanging himself after he realised he made such a big mistake? :p
yea thats what i dont get aswell
everyone wanted ollie to stay fair enough..hes the best left winger in the game.. but now people are saying we are better off withput him... and i just cant understand this
ok u lose the best number 7 in the league and..
(1) you have no replacement lined up for the position, let alone not even one in the same ballpark as ollie
(2) people say we'll be more balanced now.. yea.. now instead of having no attacking option on the right wing, we'll now have no attacking option on both the right wing but also on the left wing..
which is IMO going to result even moreso in THE HOOF coming back into CCFC soccer
aaaaahh i dont get you people, when i'm hungover like this

Strange indeed, I reckon we're all just trying to make ourselves feel better because after all he was our best player and now we are going to have to fork out a whole load of dosh to replace him.

Exactly!:( Ithink Colm is right, we're probably just trying to make ourselves feel better.
