    George may open his mouth when he should keep it shut and he may have done some silly things also but he is a decent guy and a good footballer - and I would like to see him back in the league - preferably at Cork but if not Bohs

    Brighton are the only club in the FL that run a bit like an eL club - relying on donations from fans at times (Forty Notes Fund, Alive & Kicking Fund, etc) to stay in business. I would have thought he'd be used to clubs having "issues" issuing contracts in time - the Albion live hand to mouth and it can take time to finalise the funding for a bigger contract.

    He's a talented player but his attitude is terrible. I actually applauded Damien Richardson, another character I detest, for having the balls to stand up to George and keep him out of the squad.

    Examples of O'Callaghan's poor attitude:

    -The piece about him at the POTY awards saying he hated all Shels players simply because "they hated him for no reason".

    -He injured himself fouling a Bray player in a totally pointless challenge. The ball was down Bray's end of the pitch and he just lunged in wildly and injured himself.

    -The talk about how he was going to win the FAI Cup for Cork in 2005 and then he subsequently disappeared in the final.

    At his age, I don't think his attitude will ever be changed and any club that signs him are fools.
    You have to laugh. What a sad case of jealousy.
    He's clearly in your head.

    One of the best eL players in recent times. Come back Georgie.

    Don't worry there's still a small bit of countryside in Dubland for Georgie to roll around like a pig in shíte! He'll feel just as he did at home

    One of my favourite - maybe the favourite - non- Bohs player in the league in the last few years; always applauded us as well, at the Cross and in Dalymount....
    I'd love to see him in a Bohs shirt, though I can see how it might end horribly....

    Can you actually challenge what I said?

    Like I said, he is a good player but his atttitude's all wrong. And I'm not the only one saying that.

    How do you know they didn't? Maybe they did in private? The fact this was made public is because of the stupidity of it.

    It was daft of George to get involved in anything like that when he wasn't even a fully fledged player at the club. I think it's a perfect example of another case of Georgie's inflated opinion of himself, thinking that the whole world should listen to his pearls of wisdom.

    If someone was on loan at my club and came out criticising the board I can guarantee the whole place would think he'd gone mad. It would be quickly followed by a boot up the hole on the way out the door.

    as usual cork fans are ignoring the point . No one is jealous of georgie , he has proven himself to be a total waste of talent and one of the most despised players in Irish football .Hes coming back home with his tail between his legs after FAILING in England . Hes gonna run out of options if hes not very careful

    It does sound like he's in your head, in fairness.

    George O'Callaghan is a tool.
    If you were to make a cartoon of the cocky full-of-himself footballer it would be he.
    Personally, I think it's very entertaining.

    Also, despite all the crap he stirred up with solicitors etc, I don't think any of the City players would be too bothered or unsettled about him returning.

    Although I'm unsure if Colin Healy would hit it off with him.
    George up front next season would be a great development.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    I was never a fan of George when he was with us. Found his antics rather childish and annoying.

    However since he's gone I appreciate what he a valuable player he was. He was ALWAYS looking for the ball (not a lot of midfielders you can say that about) and he definitely drew the attention of the opposition to him leaving the likes of Joe Gamble to get on quietly with his job.

    Not sure what our midfield would be with him in the squad but it would interesting to see what happens.

    Wish George all the best no matter what he decides.

    I was at that game & he was brutal. He practicially just stood in the middle of the field for the entire match & when he did move he was only making half-arsed runs. I know anyone can have a bad game but that wasn't the only time I'd seen Georgie play. He could be devastating on his day but alot of time he just looks like he couldn't be bother even strolling around the pitch.

    Good luck to whoever signs him cos I have a feeling it'll end in tears....

    He is in your head alright Frank, its not his attitude you are worried about at all. Your hatred is obvious, its eating you.

    I seem to be missing something!

    Are people saying Cork are trying to sign him but don't have a manager? Also, Cork have one of the best midfields in the country imo, its their strikers and defenders that need to be replaced, especially strikers.

    Cork have so much potential but their leadership and common sense seems to let them down.

    George started that game injured and got a very heavy tackle early in that game too.

    He would not last long in Dublin but seems that Bohs are offering him silly money

    When Georgie first came to City he was up front with Flynnie and they were unreal. Thats what i'd like to see happen again.
