Think we took on very high wages when he moved for a free from Bristol. He wanted another contract on similar terms, but we were not prepared to pay that much. Off he went to Hull for that money and secured his future. Fell out with the manager at Hull. It happens. His old manager is at Luton and he should kill it in that league.

The guy has been stealing a living for years. An absolute fraud of a footballer. His record for each club he's played for is almost identical.

Harsh, clearly a talented footballer just struggled with consistent delivery on the pitch. Possibly may have some psychological issues too?
We missed him at the back end of the FA cup run season especially at the semi final.

Possibly. In truth he always seemed to be a popular character when he was here. Always struck me that he rated himself massively despite never actually having any meaningful impact on the game. The tip of the iceberg for me was after he got himself fit for a 20 mins cameo in the play off final I read that he did similar when he was at Huddersfield. Summed him up - contributed next to nothing to the season and hoped he could turn up and steal all the glory.

Surely bringing him on for that cameo was entirely on Robins?

Talking to a Burton fan the other day. They rate our old Tavares but he gets injured a lot.

Looks like Ohare has made an impression. Fair play to him for doing that on the way home

Callum O Hare , amazing!

In this day and age with all the grief players get , how refreshing that we have a player who is not just your average footballer but is a fantastic human being ! As ever UTB !

They are trying to buy the Palace French forward ( I doubt if he will want to go there ) plus Lewis Dunk and the Wolves keeper. They like spending money.

He always looked like he had the right attributes to be a good modern wing-back. Took a lot of undeserved criticism while he was here, he handled himself well coming into a high-pressure situation at a very young age.

I thought he had a lot of bottle for his age... in the same way that I was impressed with Jordan Henderson.

Always looked miles ahead of Esbrand in the spell when we had them both. Good luck to him.

He was always really highly rated at Arsenal but as is the way at the top, sometimes time runs out and they have to make it another way. It's happened before and will happen again. Arsenal also sold Mika Biereth a striker to sturm gratz and 6 months later he went for massive money to Monaco.

I think BNC was really good for us and would have been an investment worth taking on at the time but wasn't to be. I also rated Esbrand but that one hasn't worked out...

How on earth has he got this gig, even if Wednesday is a shit show at the minute!?

Odds on him turning into prime Roberto Carlos when we play them on April 11th…

Because they’re desperate for a left back since Harry Amass went Amiss

From the Hibs manager - post Rangers re: Kai Andrews

“I thought Kai was excellent in terms of coming on in the first half. It's not easy in the first half, especially in a game of that intensity. It took him maybe five-10 minutes, 15 minutes, to get up to speed. But he certainly grew into the game. I'm very impressed with him. I was impressed with him before the signing. He's got a really good pedigree. He's played in Scotland before as well, even though he's a young boy.
“He's played a lot of football, at a level, which is good.
