according to the OS AS has gone to mansfield on loan for a month. if he gets some games it could be a good move.
 
I can think of someone on another forum who will/could be devastated.:icon_lol:
 
To be honest i don't think Sheehan will ever break into our 1st team, we may as well have just sold him

Of course you also think McCarthy is rubbish and we should get rid of him so maybe your judgement isn't as accurate as one would hope.

Or maybe you are yet to be proved right.

... where he joins former City coach, now manager at Field Mill.


Other news of ex-players:
Danny Thomas, released by Boston United at the end of last season, is now on trial at Cheltenham - played for their reserves against Plymouth last night.

Junior Lewis has joined MK Dons a 'development coach', thus following Martin Allen from Brentford to MK.

I'm not putting him down, good look to Sheehan and if he does eventually break into our 1st team then good on him. I just don't think it's very likely and you'll get more money for players when they're young

We'd get more money if he plays 5-10 games for them and shows his worth rather than without any proof he is good enough for them.
 
Good luck to our only left back, im sure he will return better for the experience and i for one am confident that he will eventually claim that troublesome first team left back berth

5 - 10 games in a month will take some doing!!

Or perhaps you foresee an extension to the loan.
 
He has shown potential, I hope he can prove to us that he can be a good player for the future.
 
I have never been impressed by Sheehan, never thought he looked very good. But good luck to him and I hope this loan move provides the desired effect.

I was the same last season before O'Grady and Logan went out on loan. :icon_wink
 
This could be what Sheehan needs, an opportunity to gain some useful experience and matches at a level where he should be able to gain some confidence, but also learn some valuable lessons in a more physical division, will be excellent in his development and could see him return to the club and be able to make a concerted effort to make the left back berth his own.

Also it may be used as a wake up call to Sheehan as well, show him a side of football that he has yet to see or experience yet, life in the lower divisions will be a culture shock compared to the surroundings he is currently used to, and this will hopefully help him to appreciate the opportunities open to him at Leicester and see him return to the club a more rounded player and individual.
 
Well I thought this kid looked very useful indeed in a big problem area for us, could be over zealous at times but thats youth..................... I was informed that he allegedly was involved in arguements with one or two senior players and they did'nt like his forthright comments to them, and thats why he has'nt been picked

I think some of his problems (e.g. with the other players, with on-field discipline) might actually relate to over-confidence, or misplaced-confidence. He seems very much a person who thinks he knows all the answers; I would imagine that he feels that he has little to learn. His apparent disdain for supporters is very noticeable as he arrives at the ground; he is likely to breeze past without a word whereas most other players, old and young, will stop for a quick word or to give an autograph.

I might have said the same thing about Chris O'Grady a year ago who presents a very different figure after his dose of reality-therapy at Boston. Perhaps a period at Mansfield will similarly affect Alan Sheehan.
