Never tall enough for a centre back either.

He's exactly the same height as Paul McGrath.

He did alright as a centre back.

His apparent lack of neck is deceptive.

Our end of season run under Tim was helped by Okore playing well and with an injury.
For that he has my thanks and best wishes.
His apparent lack of interrest started under the worst manager ever, mr Black and for that reason I cut his m some slack.

Agree with that and I thought alongside Clark he looked reasonable.  He was unlucky with injuries and I think this affected him considerably.  Also, I think his confidence took a hammering with what went on last season.

I do not think he was as bad as some are making out but he will be a better player for moving on and getting regular football.

Strange that there hasn't been anything on our OS about this, but it is on Copenhagen's.

Do not know where it went so badly wrong for this kid, I thought he was going to be a very very good player for AV.

Media over here are saying free transfer, but with 50% sell on clause.

Even signing for moneybags FCK, he'll have taken a significant pay cut. They might pay top wages by Danish standards, but I doubt if their top players are earning more than 100-150K kroner per week, compared to the £25K per week = about 220K kroner he was reported to be on.

it went wrong with him being a not very good footballer who couldnt read the game and had no positional sense.

i saw nothing in his time with us to suggest he was anything above mediocre hence back in the danish b&q league for a minimal fee

Some smart arse reckoned 50% sell on clause at the end of August ;)

He plays like he's spent the night before drinking 20/20 in Hull.

He will be destined for much bigger things than Hull. Sky will have invented the Super Intergalactic Cup by that time.  They will also have invented an extra day in the week to fit more games in too.
