There fast with this news. :rolleyes:
Strange decision by Kenny. O Grady is a strong player, all heart and a good passer of the ball. I hope he finds a club sooner rather than later.
very good player. I was sad to see him leave, and I'm sure he can do a job for a lot of clubs around.
I wonder where to next?
Our club?Quote:

He can't have gone that bad that quickly?
Could he play center back, no?
I think he left originally because of the travel involved in living in Cork though, didn't he?
yeah, well what it said in the papers about him leaving derry was that he couldn't train in derry, so I doubt he can manage cork either. If he was a full-timer I'd love to see him back.Quote:

He was released because of not being able to get a place in the starting XI but what made the decision for Kenny was O'Grady's reluctance to relocate to Derry. This is also why Davy Byrne's career with us is hanging by the finest thread imaginable.

He is indeed back living in Sligo- working as a care assistant and apparently wasn't willing to move to Derry.
