Kid was delighted with it for a few days but it all ended in tears. The shirt had the name Winnall on the back, the kid is devastated and bursts into tears every time his mum gets it out got him to wear.

We were all gutted mate to be honest , especially going where he did , we've seen him come to us from Sc unthorpe as a raw forward and he's grown with the club .

However we move on and there's nothing we can do , Hourihane's departure will hurt us far more , totally irreplaceable , captain and everything we do well he's at the heart of it , big blow if he goes this week .
