Town Again Linked With Barnet Striker Wednesday, 11th Nov 2009 08:48
Town are again being linked with Barnet striker John O’Flynn. The 27-year-old was previously mentioned in connection with the Blues in the summer after former manager Jim Magilton had been spotted watching the Bees.
O'Flynn joined Peterborough United as a youngster but returned home to Cork City where he broke into the first team in 2002, playing alongside former Blue George O'Callaghan, Wolves striker Kevin Doyle and Sunderland's Roy O'Donovan.
The Cobh-born player scored 68 times in 138 games for the Eircom League side with TWTD reporting that he was on Town's radar in July 2007.
Former Irish U21 international O'Flynn, 5ft 11in tall, left Cork for Barnet on a free transfer in the summer of 2008, scoring 18 goals last season. He has netted seven so far during 2009/10.

He's got a decent goal scoring record at a lower level. Could be worth a punt, but I notice that there's a younger player called Rhodes who's banging them in for Huddersfield - he maybe be a better bet for the future. |  | |

Couldnt make it at Peterboro and has scored less goals in a lower league than Rhodes . I hope all these stories are rubbish or Keane really cannot see players abilities which is very frightening |  | |

So if true, Keane wants rid of Garvan and this O'Flynn in. Please tell me its a joke! |  | |

Altogether now, "When Irish Agents are smiling you know that Keanes at Town" Nah! Just rumour. |  | |

He is rubbish! Saw him play a couple times as I live near Barnet. Lazy striker and not that good. No thanks |  | |

Ok may prove wrong but feel priskin is better |  | |
Mark added 12:23 - Nov 11
Hopefully nothing in this. A year ago we were linked with the likes of Premiership strikers such as Ameobi and Nugent, and now we are linked to John O'Flynn! |  | |

Well at least well have strength, of some sorts, in depth for the relegation battle. Because at this rate that exactly where we are going. |  | |
Bluebaz added 13:19 - Nov 11
Think we have been linked now with pretty much everyone borne within a 20 mile radius of Cork including my Aunty Kathleen!! Safe to say that this is probably another agent touting his 'Irish' prodigy about and the nominal paddy manager gets linked |  | |
AJblue added 13:30 - Nov 11
Lazy journalism....Cobh born, ah i know i will link him with Ipswich...DUH! Good goal scoring record,like Rhodes in a lower league,buy him when he scores in the championship/PL. We need a PROVEN scorer, not someone who might just score...if we are lucky |  | |
AJblue added 13:36 - Nov 11
Bluebaz. Is your aunty Kathleen any good? |  | |
byebyesheepshanks added 15:10 - Nov 11
I wonder if we can swap the total legend that is . . . . Tamas Priskin?! |  | |
finidiwoah added 15:45 - Nov 11
his aunt Kathleen is pretty good and very flexible in the right positions!!! |  | |
ShropshireBluenago09 added 19:34 - Nov 11
We should have gone in for Grant Holt (Now at the scum) banging in goals as he did at Shrews. Keane must go if another Eire player comes in and sits in the reserves like the others, i.e Healy, Garvan, O'Callaghan (now at Yeovil) This keeper Murphy will be the same! |  | |
ITFC4EVER added 21:13 - Nov 11
