Luke Young thread

[Ham Green]

It was such a boring question to ask though, and such an obvious answer.

"Oh god yes I regret it deeply, no idea what I was thinking there, I hope the Argyle fans can find it within themselves to forgive me."

Even if he did admit to a mistake, people would accuse Sheridan of being a poor manager by his own admission, so he can't win.

Said on here many times than Youngys stats were better than Conor's at the same age. So was only going to get better, bearing in mind we got 200k for Conor.
I'm guessing if he keeps scoring and getting assists then he will get a move to a Div 1 team for about 100k.
Felt at the time the manager released him to p1ss off the fans, and months later his attitude towards us hasn't changed.

However if you look at stats such as being shoved off the ball and being bullied off the park then hourihane's would read so much better

Yes, a manager would clearly risk his reputation just to troll the Argyle fans, that totally makes sense.

Good point tbf

Glad he's doing well but I still believe it was the right decision.

It's Hourihane we miss, not Young.

5 assists & 4 Goals.

Option A - Lower league which is easy

Option B - 21 year old player getting better with age

Im B all day every day. Now gets England C call up. Will go for decent money if he keeps up the form. :banghead:

:lol: Only just seen this.Now why on earth would a 49 year old man whose entire life has been in football and in all probability is not qualified to do anything else for the remaining 15 years or so of his working life make a decision which could possibly jeopardise his career in order just to "pee off the fans"? :lol: If Sheridan gets the push at Argyle,it would be fairly doubtful that other clubs would be rushing to employ him as manager and that would leave him with a lot of income winning time to fill before he draws his OAP.No doubt as an ex premier league player and reasonably well paid manager he wouldn't be short of a bob or two at this moment in time but that won't last forever.He may get a bit of coaching or scouting [probably not media work though ] but it sure won't be as lucrative as a managers job.It isn't an unreasonable point of view to say that the decision to release Luke Young was wrong-i was very surprised about it myself,i guess time alone will tell but please....

Scored a 30 yarder today!

 

[up the line]

A spectacular 25 yard volley.
Good job Shezza let him go 'for his own good'. Guffaw
Looking forward to a few 25 yard volleys from O'Connor. Guffaw.

 

[Tugboat]

I doubt we would have let him go if we had known sooner about CH attracting interest from that dark Northern club tearing up L1 tonight.

What a goal he hit on Saturday:

(2:39 in - right after he hit the post from a freekick)

He has been great for us - has now scored more goals than our top goalscorer last season (which says a lot about last season!).

Best goal we have seen at Plainmoor since Eunan O'Kane lobbed your french keeper from 40 yards.

Whilst Young has gone on to do well, it just wasn't working out for him playing in a proper league. I'm sure Dom Blizzard would score 10+ goals in the conference easily.
