    It wasn't. Lee Power said it was, but it's not above the 80k paid by Drogheda for Eamon Zayed.

    Is it a fact though?

    It's been said the fee was in the region of €17k and the record LOI fee is apparently 80k which Drogheda paid Bray for Zayd. It is thought the reference by Power was in relation to either a club record or first division record. It is thought the club record was £15k for Mike Devine and that it was broken in the off season.

That's not mentioning he has got a young family in Waterford. He also hated the travelling back and forth numerous times a week. Caulfield thought he'd be able to hold onto him but if Fletch was to leave Waterford would have to pay a fee. In turn Caulfield signed Griffin and Delaney. The closer it got to transfer deadline day Fletch said he didn't want to play for Cork this year not that he wouldn't play as been said by some Cork fans. Caulfield sent him back home. Waterford FC came forward offered a fee, Cork accepted and Fletch went on to sign for he's local club and was announced as a deadline day signing along with Derek Daly from Chesterfield, Jake Evans and Tom Smith on loan from Swindon and Ian McLoughlin free agent and lastly with MK Dons.

    The following is an interview from Fletch with the Mirror http://www.irishmirror.ie/sport/socc...arebar_twitter

    Obviously, fans are going to be partizan when it comes to their own club, but i don't really see much wrong that Kenny has done wrong here. These are not millionaires, they're living in the real world like the fans.

    One of the most ridiculous shouts of abuse i hear at LOI grounds is when players get called money grabbings ***** or whatever. I've no problem with any LOI player going to another club if for a few bob more (not that i'm saying this is the case with Kenny Browne).

    Kenny is happy, Cork have got a fee, there's nothing really much to it.

    Shiels was after Aaron Canning, but he was too expensive.
    He makes an interesting point about players moving from part-time to full-time.

    Greg Bolger being linked to joining Waterford in the summer. Unhappy at lack of games in Cork and has supposedly fallen out with Caulfield.

    Sounds like a bit of wishful thinking on your part there.
    In any case why would he want to go to Waterford of all clubs ?

    maybe a few ex cork city players at Waterford which is three or maybe he misses Alan Reynolds?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Bolger would walk into any team in the league, he'd be absolutely insane to go to Waterford. I can imagine him being annoyed at not winning his place back immediately, but the competition has been great and he came back with a fantastic performance Friday. Maybe he is unhappy, who knows, but if the height of his ambition at the peak of his career was to go to the first division instead of fighting to start in Europe, best of luck to him. I very much doubt it though.

    Morrisey's injured. Basically we've got 3 absolutely top quality centre mids fighting for 2 positions, for most games one of them has been injured or suspended but Caulfield has a big call to make, or to rejig, to keep all three happy. All 3 have been immense this year.

    Where do you think he plays now?

    Our midfield is McCormack, Morrissey and Buckley. McCormack is the defensive mid, Morrissey carrys the ball forward and Buckley is the furthest forward. Bolger can't play in Buckleys role. We tried him in Morrisseys place on Monday. I wasn't there so no idea how well that worked out. But the problem is that one of McCormack, Morrissey and Bolger will miss out and they are all playing really well.

    That's the beauty of having a strong squad where every player needs to be on their toes to get a game.
    Multiple players for multiple positions.

    Bolger sees himself as a 1st name on the teamsheet player so wouldnt be that fussed on a squad rotation system. It isnt that hard to bruise his ego so its not beyond possible that he is talking up a move even if it is to get Caulfield to put him in when fit. McCormack is a more club orientated type and while obviously wouldnt be happy to be out of the side he is less likely to kick up a fuss. If Waterford pony up and he wants to move it can happen but realistically when Europe is looming and with a decent draw he will settle down again especially with games coming thick and fast and players have to be rotated assuming injuries and suspensions are not picked up.

    Sorry only seeing this now. Well he told Kenny Browne who's his best mate from their Pats days followed by Cork. Same for Reynolds - as opposed to Caulfield who he hates. He's from Wexford, says he wants to leave Cork, knows he'd be on good money and the presumption would be we'd be in the Premier Division next year. So from his point of view, it'd be a temporary step down for a few months. Not sure if it'll happen but this is a rumours thread.

    I`m sure the Cobh lads might have something to say about this, never assume, plus you could be a point behind them in second place after this weekend if they beat you in St Colmans.

    On Bolger though. I`m not sure he is the type of personality to fight for his place, would def agree he would see himself as an auto pick, interesting to see what happens, but Cork will have plenty of games this season for all to play a part.
