Most Irish fans expect him to move to a Premier League club after the end of his contract. I personally feel like he's more likely to get a move to a Stoke, Middlesbrough, West Brom - a Championship club with a decent sized backer in the board room. I wouldn't describe the Boro-Backer as "A decent size". Even including the curly-perm to his height, he's still a short-arsed little runt! ?

He's been man of the match in there last 3 internationals. Sadly, we didn't make best use of him in his natural position from the get go this season. If we had, I'd expect we'd have a fair few more points and seen better from Hourihane. As it is, with no advancement with contract talks noted since September, I expect he will move on in January. Won't begrudge it as he was pretty much the only one true to his word after last seasons end of season exodus and hasn't moaned or used dodgy employment law to force a move or gone on holiday to Amsterdam via Udinese to get a move. 48 hours and David Graham Brown 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it will be around 5-6k. Can 6,000 of us stand there singing “Derby are Massive”? Oh well if we got Spurs away in the 3rd round 10k would want to go??♂️ SKRam, Derby4Me, Wistaston Ram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pack the place to the rafters for a match against someone greatly ahead of you, but no one wants to watch you play an inferior level side. It is the flaw of cup competition.

I sat on a table next to him and his agent in a restaurant a few weeks ago. I didn’t hear everything thing but “November”, “Norwich” and “West Brom” were all used in the same sentence. Make of that what you will. 48 hours, Gee SCREAMER !! and David Graham Brown 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Spalding Ram Posted November 14, 2022 Share Posted November 14, 2022 Pinched from the Torquay forum regards Saturdays 5-1 home defeat against Chesterfield. Open your eyes people, Torquay United are in a serious relegation battle because of one man, Gary Johnson. I expect the owner to sack Johnson after the Derby game next Tuesday. ……………no pressure there then!?? David Graham Brown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Torquay have to pick themselves up for that FA Cup replay - but in front of maybe more than 20,000 fans at Pride Park on Tuesday night, the players should certainly be up for it, however many games they have played in the last month. ……………..?

He's played his best football at right back this season, in my opinion. In either position, he's been underwhelming - 1 assist in 8 games from RB and still hasn't registered a goal or assist from centre midfield (or any other advanced position) yet. Not really the impact any of us thought he would have, but that goes for a few players. A big improvement needed. I'm not sure he will move on in January as we're due compensation anyway, plus we can't spend the money. It would have to be worth it financially, and arguably his underwhelming performances this season (and I would also say last season) has created a small pool for him. You would think he would be around the £15-20k mark when looking at a new contract and not many Championship teams probably would be willing to spend that - Stoke, Middlesbrough, West Brom & Norwich are the four that come to mind. The first three in particular, but Ipswich may also come to the table if they get promoted. I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
