accies reject offer for rorry

maidstoneaccy · 13-01-2005, 10:13

no dowt about it if rory went we would miss him more than any outher player in my opinion

Smiffy16 · 13-01-2005, 10:35

Hope he doesn't go.........

Fatso · 13-01-2005, 11:02

Especially not to a shower like Bristol Rovers...

Whalley Red · 13-01-2005, 11:07

And we don't need to sell to balance our books, so on Saturday let's show Rory how much we want him to stay

KIPAX · 13-01-2005, 11:17

Everyone sells if the offer is right.

5 figure sum . Didn't we pay 15k for him from Bradford PA

I would be worried that if they really want him and up the offer. he may decide to go. It's a job to him no matter how much you sing his name. lets not forget. if he went to Bristol they would sing his name there as well so whats the difference to him.

Conference football or league football and better wages.

I am worried about this situation as playoff place goes out the window without rory IMHO

It will be interesting to see the outcome of this!

For Rory this is a tremendous opportunity to play at a level at which he fully deserves (IMHO) and secondly to gauge the clubs intentions!

Redraine · 13-01-2005, 11:43

Absolutely spot on, Maidstone Accy. Without Rory no pace, no width, no crosses. If he wants to go he has to go, but I would hold out for much more than a paltry £15,000, bearing in mind the level we brought him from.

AccyMad · 13-01-2005, 11:48

Rory won't go to Bristol, why should he when he has a very real chance to play in League Two with Stanley (a club he loves playing for) in the not too distant future. The club can't afford to sell him as we saw when he came back from injury and made a terrific impact almost straight away.

Outback Ozzy · 13-01-2005, 11:55

I have to say, if Rory wants to chance his arm with a club in the League, then that is his decision, and Accy fans should respect that. Put yourself in his place, if you were offered a job with a rival company and offered a substantial rise, surely you would go even if your employees wanted you to stay. Anyhow, all this is academical at this time as the club have turned down the offer. IF Bristol do up the ante, then we have to listen to the sound commercial sense of the the management and driectors of the club and to the player himself, however much he and we may think about Accrington Stanley. One player does not a club make and others could fill in for him. Craney and McEvil for instance.

maidstoneaccy · 13-01-2005, 12:06

not saying he shouldnt go if it suited him just saying we would realy miss himas we did when he was injurd

RichardGas · 13-01-2005, 13:43

Hey everyone,

I'm a Bristol Rovers fan and was just wondering if you could say what sort of player he is, his strengths, weaknesses, style of play etc. Anything else you want to add.

I am extremely surprised that we have offered cash to be honest as we are meant to have very little money at the moment, not even enough to pay the wages of a loan signing and here we are offering a transfer fee, strange!

Anyway! Thanks to anyone that replies and all the best for the rest of the season!

simon · 13-01-2005, 13:50

He is the best left winger in this league and above, fast, tricky, centres the ball every time, and can score goals.. we do not want to lose him.........

Rory don't go they are skint

Willie Miller · 13-01-2005, 13:53

Its not Rory's decision though as he has a two year contract at Stanley & if he performs well, as a free agent he will be able to get more wages.

How old is he? If he is under 23 next year then he can't leave for free though!

Please don't go!

Mik Griff · 13-01-2005, 14:09

I hope nothing comes of this.

Perhaps a rendition of "Please Don't Go" on Saturday?

lindsay ormerod · 13-01-2005, 14:58

The Roar is 25 and loves playing for Stanley.I think he has come back stronger than ever after his op and the Club would be shooting themselves in the foot if they were to let him go now.As stated in an earlier post he still has a year on his contract and though he would love to play in a higher league I think his priority is to see the Reds back in League football.I would be very surprised to see him go at this juncture.
I don't think anyone who has seen him play in the last 5/6 matches will be surprised by this offer;it was only a matter of time after Sky showed all those corners at Halifax!
