Jordan Tansley Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 This is truly fabulous news! Especially the confirmation he'll be off in January. I suppose that will mean we'll have a decent amount of room in the wage bill to invest with permanent signings at the back? I hope so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Never rated him as a player for us, wrong signing, one of the biggest error signings we've ever made in my opinion BUT at least he is going now, and looking to leave permanently in January. This at least buys us a bit more time to look at where we invest any freed up wages. He could have hung on until the summer, can't blame a player for doing so if we were stupid enough to employ him in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Isewater Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 I'm disgusted that he's being sold.I am going to buy a season ticket just so i can tear it up and throw it at the suits in the director's box .

Esmond Million's Bung Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 Perhaps they would like to know that despite his pre season backing of Killkenny and his silly protestation that it was difficult to play him because of the 'fans', SOD himself obviously began to see the light and replaced him at halftime away to Coventry and after 35 minutes in the next game home to Wolves and neither had anything to do with the fans.

WolfOfWestStreet Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 David james? James had his moments of madness but there were flashes of brilliance mixed in. You could tell he oozed talent but was a 40+ goalkeeper and the end of his career. Killkenny never had anything in his locker. > can't/won't pass forwards > can't score > won't shoot > scared to tackle > weak as **** / coward > can't head a too short or can't jump > blames others > shouts and points a lot But for balance he can play a solid 5 yard pass backwards with ease.

sephjnr Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 If David James was so good he wouldn't have changed clubs so much. If he wasn't that good he wouldn't be the second-most capped player in Premier League history. And he only came to us because he was hung over when the phone call came - with these said however, he was ghastly in the second season here.

italian dave Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 If he wasn't that good he wouldn't be the second-most capped player in Premier League history here. And the record for the most prem league appearances (except Ryan giggs), and most premier league clean sheets, and longest consecutive run of prem league appearances. And the current England keeper when he joined us. But let's not let all that get in the way of the chance to criticise yet another of our own players, even if he did leave 2 years ago!

Esmond Million's Bung Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I remember Eddie Gray coming out and saying that Kilkenny was a nice player but NOT someone good enough to be a regular fixture in the first team. Generally poor for us, not sure he was the player Millen thought he was getting.....certainly not for the rumoured wage anyway. Wouldn't be surprised perhaps Millen thought he was getting Snodgrass or Howson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey54 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Looks and sounds like he's played his last game for us. Promised so much and delivered so little unless you count backwards and sideways. Possibly one of our 3 worst performers in the last 2 seasons. Good luck to him though, Simon Grayson looks like he knows him and could get him to do a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
