THE SON of Manchester United legend Andy Cole has been released by Barnsley, despite being the club's top goalscorer.

Devante Cole, 29, scored 18 goals and assisted three times in his 46 games for Barnsley this season.

Because we need both as Drinan, Sotiriou and Pigott need to be replaced. The Barnsley fans weren't particularly enamoured with him though, he threw in the towel after January from what they said

If Ritchie likes Kellman, that's good enough for me.
He's the manager, not us supporters.

I would love Devante Cole, he would be a fantastic signing, proven experienced L1 goalscorer, and would certainly shut the moaners up, although the moaners would still find something negative to moan about.

Playing for Orient Kelman has scored 3 goals in 625 minutes, a goal every 208 minutes. Throughout his career Devante Cole has scored 106 goals in 25473 minutes, a goal every 240 minutes, less prolific than Kelman, but all feel free to slag off Kelman and sing Cole's praises.

I watched the LOFC highlights vid of all Kelman's goals for us earlier and there was far more than 3 so his numbers may be even better than that?

The two players would be required in different roles though so it's not an either / or scenario imo.

Apologies the Kelman stats I quoted were for Wigan last season, not Orient the year before.

What difference does it make. Can't see the problem in having a player probably costing than less than the wage he is earning. Plus if he gets a bad injury he goes back to his other club and not our problem. I don't see a downside.
