Most fans will know that I am one of a few that get on well with Rory & speak to him regularly. At the presentation do he told me he thought it was time to move on as he was being stonewalled by a number of factors within the club & was frustrated that he was not allowed to play or even not being used during a game. Rorys commitment to the club has been top level, everyone can have an off game now & again, but in the main his performances have ranked from great to awesum when used. Ok so no player is greater than the club but when players are rated highly from outside the club it makes you wonder what is going on when they are let go so easily. It is one thing not to stand in the way of a player when they want to progress but so do we fans of Accrington Stanley want to see the club progress too. Letting players go of the calibre of Rory & Evil (if he goes too) does not emulate the clubs desire to progress. I don't blame Rory & wish his future works out well & know he will succeed wherever he goes.
