That's a surprise. I thought he was a regular starter with Orient?

Looked on an Orient forum.  Suggests he has off field problems and wishes to move North again.

Seen him a few times in the last three seasons and has always stood out.  What is this \"baggage/issues\" that has been mentioned on her many times in the past?

He needs to stop hanging out so much with his mates Stella and Jack.

Although I guess he is only doing what any lad in their twenties is doing.

Aye, I remember when I was in my early twenties telling lasses behind the bar that I would cut their face up if they didn't serve me sooner. The bloke is a prick and so out of touch with \"normality\", he needs a proper pasting to bring him down a peg or two.

Worth a punt? knowing how sod gets the best out of players could thornton adapt to our structures and formations? i think sean could revive another players career, thornton has the ability?

That's an intelligent thought Brez.

He does have the ability. In Spades. If anyone can, it's SOD.

Cheers

Live in North East London and Sean's a regular in the bars around us. My eldest lad is 19, sees him out fairly regularly and reports he's usually on a decent bender. Totally up to him what he does with his life but I doubt its conducive with being a footballing athlete. Most savvy managers will know he's not going to be 1000% focused.

Never rated him to be honest. A gifted footballer he may be but he obviously hasn't used his talents enough & that is why he has been released by another lower league side. A talent gone to waste i'm afraid.

I think he was a talented lad, but to get really good takes bags more dedication than young Sean has got. Remember when he first turned up at BV and he could whip a cracking corner into the box - and the goal against Villa is vintage. He just sort of faded though. That was under Penney of course - I doubt very much Sean T was really a Sean O'D type of player.
