Thanks for posting these clips. I hope he can recreate some of that form.

Especially for the PoN crew,v Port Vale

Was he the deserved Man of the Match?

Think he edged JCR for it. That doesn't mean much though

You Pies!

Yes he was in my opinion he made some great mazy runs from midfield and put some good passes together.

Only real stand out for me yesterday was Paddy so he'll get my mom vote.

Yeah, I agree that it's deserved he would be my Man of the Match.

He was "Man of the Season" tbh!

Can't remember the last time we had someone who floated round players as if they weren't there & whose first instinct was to take a man on. Reminded me of Mair, The Cat & Chiedozie - he was that good. Probably doesn't tackle enough or have the "work rate" for modern day coaches but he can dribble, yes, that long forgotten skill.

Worth the entrance money just to see him set off with the ball and leave opponents wondering where he went.

What a player!

@mightymccourt get yourself down to the lane also. You have not let us down

Trust me boys, he is absolutely unique. I can't think of another player he even resembles. If he feels the love from the manager, you'll be treated to some of the best football you'll see. The reason he is not an absolute superstar is probably down to fitness/injuries and work rate. But as far as raw talent goes you'll struggle to find anyone better. Enjoy the ride!!!

FAI Cup final 2006. 35 seconds into the clip. McCourt splits SEVEN people with a pass to set up the equaliser. Outstanding.

Paddy is out of contract at Brighton in the Summer. I hope SD plans to offer him a contract with us.

Sign him up, he could be a major player for us.

I think we have lacked someone with the ability to beat a man with skill. Once you bear a man it gives you a much better chance to create an opening, and since we lost Grealish we haven't really had that touch on the ball. Could Paddy be the answer? Let's hope so!

 

Whilst I agree in the most part of your post, the part I am struggling with is the "bear a man"? Is that some reference to the fish advert? Have you been watching too many Disney animated cartoons? ha ha

 

Only joking young man, what do you think now he has played a couple of games?

Paddy named in the top 25 players to play in the League Of Ireland:

Easily the most talented I ever witnessed in the league.
