If you actually read what I write then you will notice my comments are based on him having another great season with us.

Im just getting frustrated at the thought of buying the new Football Manager and having to spend extra money to buy back Eunan, so do me a favour mate and just stay !!

A few years? 2 and a half and in those two and a half years he's only been in the mix in terms of starting every game for the last year and a half. He's 21 and still inexpierienced, the best move for him would be to re-negotiate his contract, increase his wage 'slightly' and to increase the minimum fee to £350,000 ... spend one more season with us, score 10 goals 15 assists and then play regular championship football..

I wouldnt begrudge him a move to any decent team where I can forsee him fulfilling his potential but who on earth in there right mind would want to move to Crawley, when infact they can fall just as quickly as theyve risen. Join a team with a bit of history about them, a bigger club, more fans, not someone that in terms of infrastructure is on a par with torquay. I could of seen him in a reading type squad (not now there in the premiership) but definetly a Crystal Palace, not a flipping Crawley.. the brand name speaks for it's self..

not even that, crawley as an area is a HOLE! sure your on the skirts of London but still... definetly prefer the english riviera, the name speaks for it's self minus the weather and if Eunan is thinking about his skin tone then theres a much better chance for an Northern Irish lad to get a tan down here rather than crawley..

This is a call from myself but I also think I will be speaking on behalf of many Torquay Supporters for Eunan to stay.

I cannot see what the attraction of Crawley is, they will be an average league 1 team at best, with generally no tv coverage, no fans and no real incentive. Stay at Torquay for one more year, be part of our promotion push once again (this time with some funds behind us) play infront of the new bristows bench which can only add more atmosphere to the ground, showcase your skills once more at plainmoor, a top of the league team week in week out, score 10 goals or more and I can guarentee you that the season after next you will be playing championship football not league 1. Ive never been this pasionate about a Torquay player since alex russel and jason fowler, both amazing creative midfielders. replacing you would be a hard task, one which we could only afford if you had another brilliant season next and then flourished even more and then joined a championship team

Cheers Guys, It will all be sorted out today, thankyou for all your support over the last 2 and a half years. Obviously i cannot disclose too much on here but the future for Torquay looks bright

we can only live in hope...

Driving past plainmoor this morning as part of my morning routine and outside the club reception with whom I suspect either agent or brothers... Izale Mcleod.. surely he can only be a distant relative of lingy's on a family visit? or does this mean Rene Howe is heading out the Door?

I would of taken Grant Holt for a Start... then maybe a couple of wildcards like Lallana or Howsen, then i'd of taken smalling, micah richards, joe cole, definetly wouldnt of taken Downing or Milner... only pick players on form so they can perform, not players who hit there pack last season or the season before... and tbh I dont think downing has ever hit his peak... definetly prefer adam johnson

I honestly think we'll get a good deal for O'Kane, much better than some of us may think, especially after starting agaisnt Italy and having a Solid game will only add value to him, I think a fee in the region of £300K Plus add on's will be a good deal, then perhaps we could bid £100K for Bodin as Di Canio won't let him go for anything less and of course there will be add on's in that deal. Depending on the amount of money Simon baker will let us have for transfers will depend if we can sign anyone else... I do think we need a Kuffour type player, perhaps someone like Bignall that was at City, or maybe an unproven lower league star.. someone who we can develop..
