Witty Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 From tonights Bury Times... Knill on Chris O'Grady: "We have not taken Chris on for another month, and finance dictated that really. It didn't work out for him here. Strikers are judged on goals and he didn't score, so that was disappointing for him and for us. We wish him all the best for the future."

In other words he didn't light any fires, nor has he here to date. Lets hope he improves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Although, he apparently had a goal unfairly chalked off in one game...plenty of time for the lad IMO. As we've no-one to hold the ball up half the time, he'll do a good job when called upon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamSheridan Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 He played most games didnt he? Played in every game there: 22 (minutes), 32, fullgame, 78 (subbed), 13 and fullgame. Plenty of time on the pitch which is what he was sent out for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is utter manager drivel.... he admits that it was driven by finance, but then states it is because he didnt score to try and make it look like footballing reasons... plus the fact we bloody need him and it was only a months loan anyway...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 This is utter manager drivel.... he admits that it was driven by finance, but then states it is because he didnt score to try and make it look like footballing reasons... plus the fact we bloody need him and it was only a months loan anyway... He's probably trying to divert the attention to the fact that his own team has spectacularly imploded in the last month or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking just that. Make your mind up man... I think we need to face it that Hughesy is the only consistently goalscoring forward we have at the club though, hence Shez deciding we need a spare body in that area. Unless we can hold onto Byfield we should look to play to our strengths and aim to get the midfield scoring rather than hope that Lewis, COG or the other bloke is going to do it all for us.

laticsmarra Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 O'Grady gives us another option i.e. if we need to play long and keep the ball he is the one to do it. Will never be and hasn't been a prolific goalscorer but holds the ball up well and brings others into play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opinions4u Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 He has the same skills as Lewis, with more body weight and experience. Hughes/O'Grady would be an interesting strike pairing. I still think Alessandra is a more intelligent player though and better at bringing others in to the game (and taking defenders out of the game).

Diego_Sideburns Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Hughes/O'Grady would be an interesting strike pairing. O;Grady partnered Davies in the pre-season games against Derby (45 mins) and Hull (63 mins). He scored against Derby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
