your absolutely right he doesn't care, that's the issue.

Just to be clear the people in question are from crumlin/drimnagh. Troy is from Summerhill which is nowhere near, so this isn't a we grow up together and are childhood mates etc etc

And so what ? The man came pick and choose his mates we are football fans keeping an eye on his progress for the national team not human moral compasses with a given right to pass judgement on the young fella for it.

It’s a complete non story.

...and an incalculable amount more who’s haven’t.

Up against Jimmy Dunne maybe!

**Trequartista20** · 23/09/2020, 5:13 PM

Starts against Burnley tonight alongside Williams with Pearce on the bench.

Dunne starts for the Clarets, Long's on the bench.

Is it on any channel by any chance?

**tetsujin1979** · 23/09/2020, 5:28 PM

Stream on carabao.live, but you have to pay for it.

**Diggs246** · 23/09/2020, 5:32 PM

Ok ta

Pretty anonymous in 1st half. His looks like he's playing off the front man but he's rarely been on the ball and looks a bit slow at times

**Eirambler** · 23/09/2020, 6:50 PM

Sounds like he's maybe come back from the injury too soon.

Its a brutal game to be fair. Best that can be said is that it'll build fitness for him

**tetsujin1979** · 23/09/2020, 7:04 PM

Subbed off at half time

New knock:

“Troy picked up an injury early on, it was affecting his movement so he had to come off at half-time,” Rowett said.

“He got a kick on the ankle. Maybe for Troy, he’s a young lad who’s desperate to play. He was devastated being injured early on in the season. He wants to play games.

“It’s probably a good lesson for him. He’s stayed out there and tried to continue – he’s done it for the right reasons – when you could see he was struggling movement-wise.

“He probably should have just come off or I probably should have taken him off. It doesn’t look great but we’ll see.

“It’s a big blow for us because we haven’t scored as many goals as we’d like anyway. Troy was brought in to give us that extra quality but he’s not really been available.”

“He’s such an honest kid, he’s come here to score goals and do well for us. He’s fitted in brilliantly into the group and worked incredibly hard. It’s more frustration from his point of view. He’s an 18-year-old lad but even when he’s struggling he wants to stay out there.

“Everything he’s trying to do for the right reasons, but he’s got to learn that if he makes the injury worse he’s going to be out for a lot longer.

“He’s a bright lad and it’s disappointing so far we’ve not had him available. Hopefully it’s not too serious and he’ll be available soon.”

Haha I stopped at halftime before hearing about this but felt the exact same!

**tetsujin1979** · 23/09/2020, 11:04 PM

a real fan would have kept watching. Just saying.

Didn't see the point when Parrotts career is now obviously finished

**Stuttgart88** · 24/09/2020, 11:51 AM

Jack Byrne needed more than ever!

**DeLorean** · 28/09/2020, 3:46 PM

Looks like a minimum of two weeks out for Parrott - https://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/...-40056284.html

I think it’s going to be a little bit more than two weeks, the way it looks. We’ll get clear news on that over the next half a week.
