Ex-Player Thread Canice Carroll - joins scum

[Northstandboy]

He's gone and joined Swindon on loan until the end of the season....

 

[Sarge]

 

[Northstandboy]

So he has moved up a division to move two down. Odd.

 

[holdsteady]

It was a strange move to Brentford really, he joined there under 23s not as a first team player, so you can’t blame him for taking a loan to play proper football even if it means having to play in a 2rd world slum.

Never thought that much of him as a player myself, seemed a bit of a headless chicken, but he could prove me wrong.

 

[Oldham]

I know his dad and to be honest I’m shocked!

 

[SouthLowerOx]

Appeared to me like a kid that thought he had made it already. To be honest the limited time we saw of him he looked like a walking red card and didn’t impress me, apart from one crunching tackle in front of the Oxford Mail!

 

[battman]

"Alexa, show me a player who's ruining his career."

 

[Oxford84]

Thought he was good and certainly physically stronger than most young players that come through,but how the hell could he join that lot?

 

[ZeroTheHero]

He has really let himself down here.

 

[Notaswindonfan]

All part of a plan to get them relegated to non league ?

 

[Gary Baldi]

I agree, must be awful!

 

[Osleroad]

I know his dad and to be honest I’m shocked!

Does he have voodoo dolls of S..don players in his house then??!

 

[Ox4Eva]

Some beard he is trying to grow, has he turned muslim?

 

[Oxford84]

I would 100 % refuse to play for those c***s.

 

[Aylesbury Rich]

But, he was one of our own!?!?

Officially worse than O'Dowda. And Marvin Johnson. And Hitler.

 

[Keepitreal]

The usual response from the usual bunch of keyboard warriors, clearly bereft of intelligence
Canice is a decent baller who, for one reason or another, wasn't able to make it into the starting 11 on a regular basis. I understand that KR didn't rate him and I heard the feeling was mutual. I suspect the move to Brentford was never about first team football, more about his own development. A subsequent loan to a club quite close to his Oxfordshire home makes complete sense.
Comparisons to Hitler and him becoming a muslim nicely sums up the mental capacity of Ox4Eva and Aylesbury Rich. Grow up lads

 

[Didcotox]

He’s a professional looking for 1st team minutes. Think it’s irrelevant whether he was “one of our own”. A move that I would suspect is close to home so makes sense.

 

[Osleroad]

It would have been worse to go direct from us to them and some have vice versa and prob. won't be the last but not sure why he didn't just try and get picked up by a lg 2 outfit in the 1st place

 

[Maurice Earp]

Bit harsh saying that he's worse than Hitler.

 

[Horse]

Let's hope he really fucks up their season

Shame you don't have the mental capacity to understand a joke when you read one. Now away and dry yer eyes...

 

[Leysboy]

He showed glimpses of how good he was, but was never consistent. His best game I thought was at the DW Stadium against champions elect Wigan. Played in the defensive midfield position he will do well.

Good luck to him I say.

 

[Foley]

I must admit to never wish luck to those going to that lot (apologies keepitreal)

Wow... that clearly went completely over your head!!

 

[Northstandboy]

Agent Carroll ?

 

[MJB]

I imagine the more physical nature of League Two will suit him.

 

[Followtheox1]

Nothing to do with him going to Swindon but was personally surprised that Brentford wanted him and thought it was a good bit of business for us. To me while he was always a player that got stuck in and had energy he lacked technical ability as well as nous. Having said that Appleton saw something in him.

 

[Junior_1]

Average player in a development set up bursting with better, younger players. Also a lad with a chip and a very questionable attitude..

 

[Ricey]

I hope he is their best player but they get relegated regardless...

Agree. Mapp always said he saw him ultimately in that position. He never looked comfortable having to play at full back with a white line hemming him in.
It strikes me that full back is a very specialist position yet lots of players get shoved out there and then fail.
