Did Don Givens start his comments about Treacy with "I am afraid he has got talent"
I only listened the once and I am not going to listen again but tis a worry if these are his first thoughts when deliberating on young players ! ! !
It's not so much what Givens says is an issue, he just has not a clue about diplomacy and can't zip a negative comment. He is an employee of the FAI - to do scouting or whatever, it is not his place to make a comment about a player who is basically in Trap's zone of responsibility. I don't mind Givens or his strict attitudes, but he should not be let near managing youth teams. He does not appear to understand youths, nor does he have a psychological tool in his box on how to handle them.
Some players mature later than others, there is no need to black mark a player for life, because of some indiscretions while young.
You have to hope it's just a faze
scored again this week to make it 3-1 to Preston against Palace (garvan scored). It should end up 4-3 to Palace.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
6th goal of the season for him.
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Cracking goal from a long way out.
Went like a rocket into top corner.
His long strike ability reminds me of the goals Glenn Whelan used to score at Wednesday
My Guarantee
Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
Tardelli was at Deepdale with Alan Kelly for the Palace game.
Treacy is in good form right now
I hope its not another manager (with the Ferguson stamp) putting pressure on players to be reticent about playing for their country. This is in regard to his less than enthuisiastic response to being called up to the last Irish squad.
Tardelli would have seen Owen Garvan score too. I hope he played well.
He scored last night against Scunthorpe and seemed to be very influential throughout the game according to the Sporting Life Report. Our new man Barton warmed the benches.
"A constant thorn in the side of Coventry all afternoon" according to Skys reporter. Helped to force the goal there.
Treacy was on fire today for PNE v Sheff Utd, a top player when he lays off the black pop!
2 good goals though.
two lovely goals, a long range free kick that everyone missed, and cut in from the left to drill home with his right foot inside the area.
Could have had a hat trick with another free that came back off the upright
Having seen bits and pieces of Treacy he seems to have good ability. It would be interesting to know what Blackburn or other higher (than Preston) clubs feel he lacks ?
Totally agree with this. He's also got a good goalscoring record this season. Yesterdays double leaves him with 9 in 39 for a struggling side. Hopefully he's not in league one next season and someone comes in for him. Still only 22 and only has a year left on his contract I think (should be fairly cheap) so he would be a good signing for a lower prem side surely.
