    John O'Flynn

    A few people on this board have been singing his praises.

    We'll see in both matches against Malmo if has any chance in international football.

    Fair play to O'Flynn and Cork. Hope they can back this up in the return leg. From my limited knowledge of O'Flynn, having only seen him in under 21 games, can't believe bigger clubs haven't snapped him up yet.

    Hes not in full flight as such now either. Still trying to recapture form from pre-injury days. He doesn't score too many tap in goals as most seem to be from edge of box.

    His goal against Malmo was great, He dispossed the keeper, took it around him and then shot the ball past the defender on the line but then he got booked for hs trademark celebration!

    O'Flynn linked with Ipswich today in the Sun. Probably a case of "hmmmm, slow news day, that Cork striker is doing well for Barnet, Keane has a history of signing Irishmen, let's run with it, and 2 + 2 = 5" from the red top

    I think he's proved himself in League Two, but Ipswich would be the wrong club to move to right now. Someone like MK Dons or Leeds would be a good fit for him.
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    from watching him for years in the LOI i always thought he was over-rated. good but thats it IMO. dont really think hes what ipswich need to get them up the table right now. just my opinion.

    When at full fitness he was miles ahead of Kevin Doyle when they were both at City. Can never seem to put a good injury free run together though.

    He used have a handy record at U-21 level as far as I can remember
    Oh no not them again

    Still a good player but that knee injury early in his city career robbed him of this pace.

    No doubt he would be playing in premier league if it wasnt for that.
    Yeah man, they call gambling a disease, but it's the only disease where you can win a bunch of money.
