Biggest disappointment so far for me,  I be amazed if he even makes a good championship striker. Hope I wrong but cant see it

Never got the hype, don’t see anything at all remarkable about him.

Desperate times!

You'd be complaining if there were too many players at that level then. And why is there an expectation that we will have an Irish presence on most teams? And is the LOI not fairly comparable to both levels (definitely League Two at least) and that is comprised almost entirely of Irish players. 

Honest to God..

A lot on the bench as well including the redoubtable Troy Parrott, who got a minute on the pitch today. Starters were : Portsmouth ( Raggett, Harness, Curtis ), Ipswich ( Judge ), MK Dons ( O'Hora ), Gillingham ( Bonham ), Oxford ( Kelly, Sykes ), Sunderland ( McGeady )


I was counting just the 3 o'clock kick-offs. Rochdale have more than the other 21 teams playing put together.

He should be in the Under 21s developing his game alongside Mipo Odubeko and JJ Kayode.

Cause we've the worst squad in nearly 40 years and Kenny probably thinks it makes sense to blood potential youth, and probably also thinks his development is better served with the seniors.

Also, Who's missing out cause of Parrot's inclusion? I don't see the downside

I suppose everyone was clamouring for him to be in the squad previously because we all thought he'd be banging them in once he started playing regularly, and that would be better than any of our current options. 
I can't see Spurs playing him if/when he goes back to them, season isn't far from over, where do we think he'll be next season?

83 minutes gone, they've been behind for over 10 minutes, and Parrott's still rooted to the bench.

It's hard to put a good spin on this.

Are Ipswich playing hoof ball?

Harness scores tho, is his paperwork approved, is he worth a call, there was good reports on him a while back?

Scores for the first time in a million years. Like most of our players he's a much of a muchness. Doesn't really offer us much more than we already have. 

he's the type of player who's really only going to get a call up if he goes through a patch of decent form.
