Genuinely sad to see him go, but wish him all the best with Preston. We never got to see him regularly due to injuries but there was potentially a great player there IMHO … opportunity missed sadly.

I thought we'd released him a while back.

Always remember him getting the tube back with the palace fans after the play off final win, nice touch.

If not for a biased/bent ref he would be one of our heroes and if not for an overdose of glass bones he might have been one of our heroes. Goodbye and good luck for the future.
Enjoying getting up later and not having someone who knows better than me (apart from the missus of course).

had all the tools to be a top player for us, was just coming into goal scoring form when he did his cruciate. Such a shame but hope he does well for himself in the future. Will never forget the header against Watford and the goal that should have been in the final. Nice one clatenburg

Well said, mate. An undoubted talent, sadly unrealised. I wish him well and hope he can stay injury-free.
Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

I really hope he does well at Preston. I fear the worst though, that he'll break down again, pick up another long term injury.

Echo all of the above. Had all the tools to be a top striker for us...just couldn't stay fit.
All the best.

Yes, agree with all the things posted on here, still only 28 so lets hope all works out for him, joins Mike Elwiss and kevin Mabbutt two excellent strikers, robbed from us by injuries, good luck Conor

Could never see the fascination with CW.
Scored in fits and starts but never looked prolific to me. Great goal in the semi though.
I wish him luck like everyone else but he has played so little in the last 3/4 years, you wonder if he will ever come back properly.
Obviously, tome will tell.

Best of luck Conner just hope for his sake stays injury free. As said had alot of potential and scored a great goal at WBA a few seasons back.

I sincerely hope it works out for him and he remains fit and injury free.
However history has shown injury prone players remain just that.

every time he started to show form, and with it some classy moves, he'd get another injury set-back. On the occasions that he did get back to near-full fitness, he was very competent at smashing the ball in the back of the net, something we've dearly missed in recent years. Sadly we didn't see enough of that though.
Wish him all the best and I feel that we've now pushed past the need to buy mercenaries and damaged goods with our recent signings. Hopefully we won't see another in this mould for a few years yet.

Absolutely delighted to see the back of him. Bang average player who has been very unfortunate with injuries but who has been a drain on our club.
Good riddance.
