its a hard one to call. i think he has another year to run on his contract so if he has a good pre-season, he may get a place in the 1st team. he was sent to Falkirk for experience so it looks like Town want him back again. In terms of skill and footballing brain, he seems right up there with the best but he needs a couple of goals early in the next season to get him going. The Oirish seem to love him as they include him in everything. Someone told me he's played 41 times for the Republic at youth level and got 13 goals. That's pretty good by any standards
