    Good to see Venice taking a punt on Connolly.

    *Pun stolen from another source, but I feel Connolly to Venice might have some Sammon-like pun mileage. Tets can indulge us for a day at least I hope.

    Certainly he'll either sink or swim at Venice anyway.

    Signing a player like him, you'd suspect they're hoping to flood defences with attackers next season.

    (I don't expect this to have the kind of long term pun-rich posting of a Parrott or a Salmon or whatever, so I say open the floodgates for a day or so and get it out of our systems.)
    You can't spell failure without FAI

    It's good to know the Venetians aren't blind to his talents.

    I think Venice fans are known for their mere chants. Still, I'm surprised that Venice went for him, I've heard Aaron is a bit of a doge. I'd expect him to get off his Marks very quickly.

    I hear they were looking for a speed merchant.

    (Racks his brains thinking how to incorporate a reference to Rialto into this thread. Must be a possible St.Pats link...)

    great interview, very honest and forthright - refreshingly so (you don't see it very often). Definitely saying all the right things - would be amazing to see him turn this around and become the player we all thought he would be.

    Spot on very honest. Not easy to blow off your mates at that age even if they are been a negative influence. Is he still with the girl from love island?

    He is making all the right sound bytes anyways, let’s see if he can back it up with action on the field. His Brighton contract runs through June 2024, so he should be able to engineer a good permanent move next summer if he impresses, hopefully with Venezia in serie A

    give over. it comes across as an honest interview telling it how it is.
    he doesn't suggest he was forced into the situation he found himself in...

    “At the time when people were telling me, I didn’t want to listen or hear or see what they were saying to me was right,”

    he is 22 and willing to move abroad to improve himself. should be given the benefit of the doubt really
