2024/25 Seamus Coleman

[Joey66]

I fully expect him to be massively exposed tomorrow. That's the downside of sentiment...

Still. "Gets us".

Play Patterson in front of him as we double up on our full backs anyway..

 

[Tim's tourettes]

Absolute top drawer pro,even better fella,however it is symptomatic of our problems as a club that Seamus is still here,he should really have gone three to four years ago,not his fault,lad gives the lot for us and appears to be the motivator in chief off the pitch as well,I would be all for a testimonial at BMD but Christ I hope to god it is not Seamus or Young as our RB opening fixture at BMD!!!

You are spot on mate. I'd like to think the days of sentiment have gone and are now replaced with hard nosed business.

 

[Nymzee]

Lol. Is Zat trying to be the new @davek?

He’s turned extra weird lately.

 

[Lapeno77]

Next year's calendar has him on December.

He's getting another year.

No DCL though.

Don't think the calendar folk decide contracts.

 

[CielosGrises]

Will be sad to see him retire - get the feeling he was giving the dressing room a bit of backbone over the last few years. Maybe Pickford and Tarks keep that going.

Of course he gets judged on the pitch and time catches up with us all.

 

[Nymzee]

Injured before half-time

 

[kiss the crest]

He will get rinsed today.

 

[PhoenixIreland]

Calamity Coleman enters the fray again. Will give away at least one goal.

He's been on more Calanders than Cliff Richard. Well in Seamus lad.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Big challenge for Seamus today.

 

[Dublin blue 75]

Presumably his final starting selection appearance versus City today. Make it memorable Shay.

This would be up there with some of the worst decisions of the club.

The man always seems to be running the management.

"Seamus told me he will continue playing, so we extended his contract"

Etc etc

Lovely bloke blah blah

Would have been happy to see him move on a couple of years ago and I think from a playing side he might have got more time on the pitch if he had stepped down a level. It would not have affected his international career as most Ireland players play outside the top division. He`s been a bit part player for a few years now and now its a case that he can`t leave soon enough, and it won`t make us any weaker when he goes.

I'm not sure footballing ability would even factor into the decision.

'He's a great servant, a leader, Loyal Evertonian etc etc'

The testimonial in the Summer would have been the ideal breakpoint but unfortunately, it seems we're taking a familiar approach which usually results in predictable, costly failure.
