Something tells me they're not too bothered at Coventry ...

Could be anything, family perhaps, does seem odd though
You might think I've forgotten, but one day, when you least expect it, my time will come.

On-loan striker Rory Donnelly returns to Swansea for personal reasons
3 Feb 2014 14:23
Steven Pressley hoping situation can be worked out but 21-year-old will be missing against Bristol City
Coventry City’s latest loan striker Rory Donnelly has returned to Swansea before he’s even kicked a ball in anger for the Sky Blues.
The 21-year-old was in line to make his debut alongside fellow transfer window recruit Nathan Delfouneso against Bristol City tomorrow night but has gone back to his parent club for personal reasons.
However, Coventry boss Steven Pressley remains hopeful the situation can be resolved, saying: “Both clubs are working on a solution to the situation but he’ll certainly not be available for tomorrow night.
“It’s a disappointment because we obviously worked hard to get in a couple of strikers ahead of the window closing but that’s football and that’s what we’re faced with.”
His absence means Franck Moussa is set to retain his place as a supporting striker when City travel to Ashton Gate.
Meanwhile, John Fleck and another new recruit, Dylan McGeouch — a wide midfielder from Celtic — sat out training today with a sickness bug, but Pressley remains hopeful they will recover in time to travel.
“We’ll see how they are overnight but hope they recover in time to play, but it’s not ideal,” he said. “It must be Scottish bird flu or something!”

I heard Coventry was only intrested in bringing him on loan if the deal included a pre-contract to sign him full time after his loan, but we obviously declined, as the board see him apart of our future

if that was the case, he wouldn't have gone. Not gone and come straight home.
He's probably had a falling out with someone there and thought f*ck it, I'm off.

Rory Donnelly returns to Swansea City after just one training session with Coventry City
By South Wales Evening Post | Posted: February 03, 2014
RORY Donnelly has returned to Swansea City in mysterious circumstances after just one day at Coventry City.
Donnelly joined the Sky Blues on loan for the rest of the season ahead of last Friday’s transfer deadline.
But it has now emerged that he came back to Wales after only one training session for what the two clubs are calling personal reasons.
The 21-year-old had been tipped to make his Coventry debut in Tuesday night’s clash with Bristol City, but there is now no chance of that happening.
Instead, as things stand, Donnelly is expected to report for training with Swansea.
However, if he returns to the Liberty on a full-time basis, he will not even be able to play for Swansea’s under-21s before next season because he is officially a Coventry player until May.
Swansea are now speaking to Coventry in the hope that Donnelly will return to the League One side.
“Both clubs are working on a solution to the situation but he’ll certainly not be available for tomorrow night,” said Coventry boss Steven Pressley.
“It’s a disappointment because we obviously worked hard to get in a couple of strikers ahead of the window closing but that’s football and that’s what we’re faced with.”

"Rory Donnelly has done a Robert Jarni and left Coventry City before even playing a game for the Sky Blues."
..........if Rory turns out to be a Robert Jarni, were sorted for years to come

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

In the summer of 1998, Jarni initially moved to English side Coventry City, signing for £2.6m from Real Betis. However, when Real Madrid decided they wanted the player, they successfully bought him from Coventry for £3.4m with Jarni having made no appearances whatsoever. Some believe this was a joint Coventry City and Real Madrid tactic, as Betis refused to sell him to the Madrid club.

I was at that game as a neutral.Coventry v Leeds it was and they paraded Jarni around the pitch with his little Cov scarf above his head.I read the following morning he'd gone to Madrid.6000 Leeds fans there that day.Just saying.

Oh dear, this is not the reason.
Rory has many issues, as we all know, he has had run ins at Swansea. and those issues off the pitch seem to affecting him greatly. He is a young man who needs to do a number of things, and one of them at the moment is grow up and look about himself. He is in a privileged position, earning a lot of money, knuckle down before you become the next Dai Thomas lad.

He probably couldnt handle the culture shock of life in L1 . They probably put him up in a travel lodge (they are skint as fook arnt they?) ala Alan partridge , and he probably has to wash his own kit like lamps did on loan with us too so being as he earns a bundle down here and does next to nothing for it he probably decided lower league football life aint for him !!
Just a theory..
