I only saw him only once in a friendly at Exeter a couple of seasons ago. I thought he had something about him, but he was never given opportunity here under Robins or Frank. Shame really, but obviously have to trust manager and coaching staff’s judgement. Good luck to him.

I only saw him once in a pre season friendly versus MK (then league 2), he had excellent link up play with Kasey Palmer.

We used to go to most home U21 games when he first started coming through. He had some great games, particularly at the CBS and he - to me at least - really stood out as someone who could actually make it.

Ordinarily, I think that would have been with us, but our success this season means he's been left behind. I have no doubt he will have a good career at Championship level.

Sort of wonder if QPR think they’ll get a higher level/tune out of him, why couldn’t we? Meh. Not important really.
Next season, we should be in the Prem. Any young player we’re not confident can make that step up should be moved on.

I hadn't realised Obikwu was nearly 22. For some reason I thought he was 18-19. That being the case this does seem like decent business for him and us. Good luck tomhim though, saw him play a couple of times for Grimsby and he definitely had a bit about him.

Good luck to him, bit of a victim of our success over the last couple of seasons.

If we were in QPRs position I’d expect him to be our back up next season, so a good deal for all sides I’d say.
