He does look like a good player judging by what I saw at The Mem last Saturday, We have a bit of cash in the kitty and we also recieved a decent amount from Wednesday for Chris Lines, so maybe we could make a move for him, but I very much doubt it. A few clubs better placed than us will be looking at him I am sure, Maybe Crawley will be sniffing after him :red:

How old is O,Kane by the way? I think the Premier League is way to far a step up for him, judging by what I have seen, Even Chris Lines has only joined a League One side, and I am not saying he is a better player than O,Kane for one second, but Lines did cut it at League one level scoring 15 goals in a season 2 years ago, Whereas O,Kane is unproven at a higher level.
According to the profile on the official Torquay United website, O'Kane was born in July 1990.

This is my reasoning as well. Can we get him on a longer contract with a clause in it not to stand in his way of a move if a Championship/Premier League club comes in with a reasonable offer ?

Expect "BIG TIME" Bristol Rovers to come sniffing in January with an offer of £45,000. 8/

Great goal - hope he kicks on from here. He seems to be taking his chance now Elliot has moved on.

He's a little 'un course he's going to get hurt every now and again, playign through it is admirable though.

I guess that would part explain Eunan's slight drop since the Crawley game then?

Both have been pulled out of the squad by Torquay because of injury - hopefully they will both be fully fit come Saturday :whistle: ;-)

(who would of thought we would be having Club vs Country issues at Torquay!)

It will be interesting to see how quickly Eunan can adapt now that Wroe has left.
It is a fact that he loved playing alongside Wroe and his replacememt is a completely different type of midfield general.

I reckon almost all League 1 clubs would love to have both Kee and O'Kane on their books

O'kane has quickly established himself as a fans favourite and I believe that Kee will step into Elliot's boots and have league 1 clubs interested by the end of the season

I was very excited when we first signed him and he seems to score for fun in the reserves and in pre season, but I have seen him twice now this season and he looks worryingly non-league to me. No pace, little skill and he is too small to win high balls against big centre backs.

Any body get any suggestions of how we can get the best out of him?

Also, I still fail to see what Eunan brings to the team. Yes, he has skill, but it seems that neither him nor Buckle can work out what his best position is.

These two are both young and very talented, but we need them both to come good if we are going to mount a serious title challenge.

I would class Eunan as one of(many even the) most cleverest footballers at the club, he seems to have great awareness and stamina and never seems to give up on a chase or a dead ball situation, when there is nothing to play for. At Stevenage, he was everywhere, espessially in the pressure period we were under in the latter stages of the first half, he was tracking back and made a very important tackle, which pretty much saved us going behind. He has quick feet and can make a mess out off the oppositions defence. BUT, he lacks strenght, but a couple on months in the gym with the Bevonator, this could be sorted
As for Kee, I was realy looking forward to seeing him play after his preformances at te likes of Weymouth etc. but as others have said, I think he just needs one league goal, and it will come, time will tell with Billy. I think he is trying a bit to hard. More is to come from him I expect.

Dont write them of yet ;-)
