He might want to be here, but if the contract is poor in his eyes then he as to look after himself and his family. Like you and anybody else at work if he can get a better deal elsewhere then good luck to him.

Why would AH offer him a poor contract, and we only have tallpie's word for it that he was? Alan Hardy has been splashing the cash elsewhere to boost the squad, why would he think O'Connor deserves less than others? If it's a fact that the money was there but the length of contract wasn't, then there must be a reason for it. His fitness must come into consideration and O'Connor must know it, as would Nolan, and it would be him that decides a player's capability of surviving the physicallities of a full League 2 campaign.
We still have Stead, don't we? In any case we have two new strikers who, I would imagine, would prefer the passing game from a changed midfield, and League 2 defenders have ALWAYS given it the big boot - well ours have - AANNNDDD! Mr Hardy seems to indicate we haven't finished in the transfer business yet.
I live in hope navypie that one day i may once again see the flowing football that we used to play, with the like of Carter, Scanlon. Mair, Bradd and so on. Yes i have a season ticket for next season and yes i will go to all home and away games.. The football that Nolan employs is dredfull to watch, regardless of the result. And i dont expect things to change very soon..
I would suspect that Mr Hardy will not accept anything less than automatic promotion this year. If we are off the pace around Xmas i could see changes being made.....
What is poor to one man might be fine to another, we don't know what was offered or what he can get elsewhere. If he as been offered a 1 year deal but can get 2or3 somewhere and possibly on more money then at his age surely it makes sense to accept it.
Having said that I hope he stays.
