Are we gonna get a video of Carolyn Radford picking him up from outside the bus station? She looks like a character from Thunderbirds.. That’s a bit unfair on Lady Penelope! 😉 UTG!

I'm really disappointed.
Another player underrated by too many.
Good luck Ollie.
Thanks for your brilliant service.

What replacement would gasheads like to bring in? Its a shame he can't seem to stay clear of injuries because the ideal replacement would be free agent Jordan Rossiter. If someone manages to keep him fit they will have an outstanding player for this level. To be fair, I've heard of quite a few players described as a scouse kante, before.

Thanks for the years wearing the quarters Olly and good luck where ever you end up. I wonder if the offer of a one year contract tipped the scales in favour of him leaving. Please Sir can I have some more Attachment Deleted

Shame to lose a character such as Ollie from the squad but respect him for taking a leap of faith at this time.
Kilgour being the sole home-grown player left in the senior squad is sad and I hope some of the other local lads can break through by the time we inevitably lose him.

Sad to hear he's going and to a L2 club - must be a longer contract. He played a lot more good games than bad and scored plenty of cracking goals (with both feet !). Always ran and tackled. Good luck Ollie !

Double promotion winner, two time player of the season winner, club captain, 11 years a professional, 41st on the all time League appearances list and some people are completely not arsed. An odd club. I love Stats but they can also mislead you.. Wasn't a first 11 player in either of those promotion season. The 2nd time he won player of the year he shouldn't have even been in the top 3. Not a captain IMO, too lacking in discipline. Tony Craig was the real leader during OC's reign IMO. Loads of footballers have been professional for a long period, doesn't make them a great player and one we must keep. not many positives for you then over his 10 + years at the club

Yes. Do I think he's been involved in some good times at Rovers? Yes. Do I like his passion and desire? Yes. Do I think he is a player that we should have done all we could to keep and is vital to drive us forward? No.

Will do well in league 2. Wish him well. I am sure BG has a able replacement in mind.

Sorry to see him go. Very good player on his day. Had a lot of niggly injuries which have impeded his progress.
Sad to say goodbye to the last of the promotion winners.

I wish Ollie every success and good luck for the rest of his career, but didn't Coughlin just come in and unsettle one of our key players just as they were about to sign an extension to their contract?
Isn't this something you really shouldn't do to a former club?

Thanks for everything you've done for the Club both on and off the pitch. Good luck in the next part of your career - I'm sure you will always get a warm welcome should you ever return.

He always came across as an honourable man who always tried to do right by the club and players. Now he's stitched is up twice, which just goes to show what a bad judge of people I am 😕
