Transfer Rumours

[harps1954]

Higgsy coming back to replace Reynolds

I really do hope that is true.

[MariborKev]

I can't see Higgsy coming back.

We have rejected two offers for McGinn and also an offer for Farren.

At least one ex LOI player in England has touted himself to us.

[Jersey Cow]

Who's that Maribor???...Trevor Molloy on a weekend away??? :D

[mrtndvn]

Exactly. I love to be reminded of these times where Martyn played in a three man midfield?

http://www.eleven-a-side.com/derrycity/news.asp?n=33228 Yes we drew but we played pretty well that day.

Now correct me if im wrong, but I think he got injured then.

[Rovers1]

Joxer offered to Sligo...

a reliable source?

[garyderry]

Getting more and more impressed with Pat McDaid every decision he
takes at the club since day one.

[garyderry]

You're watching a different Derry City to me.

Martyn did nothing this year, and nothing last year when he came back from Norway.

Fenlon is guilty of many things, but Ciaran Martyn losing interest isn't one of them.

He hasnt done a thing since Gretna away, badly need to get him odd the
wage bill, wasting money on him badly

[Jersey Cow]

Paul Cook!!

[Rovers Maniac]

Paul Cook!!

:D:D

loo to the la

[Rovers1]

Paul Cook!!

he was the source?:confused:

[Jersey Cow]

no only joking....

[galwayhoop]

Joxer has left Bohs apparantly.
Any rumour as to where he's headed?

Glenn Fitzpatrick to a Vietnam club of all places!

[maroon ultra]

Maybe someone should tell him that a 'Vietnam club' isn't necessarily a football club.

[sligoman]

Sligo Rovers star full back Seamus Coleman appears to be on the verge of a move to second placed Championship side Birmingham City. The English club have made a six figure offer to Sligo Rovers and the club have given the player permission to speak to the Birmingham management.
The young Donegal born player is at St Andrews this week and will train with the first team on Thursday.
Any deal will involve add on clauses in relation to league appearances and international caps.
Glasgow Celtic are reported to be monitoring the situation also. It is expected that that a decision on a transfer will be made inside the next 2 weeks although the player cannot officially move until January the 1st.From here.

[Lim till i die]

Jason Hughes offered a trial with Birmingham City.

What's the story, they heard there was a financial crisis so they're buying the whole league?!?!

[Pablo Escobar]

Billy Clarke for Cork City has been doing the rounds the past few days.

[Black and White]

If you where to go by all the local papers in Dundalk today....Jeff Kenna is getting the dundalk job!!:mad:

Billy Clarke as in the Ipswich player on loan at Darlington? More chance of Kilkenny City returning to the First Division than him coming back to Ireland

[micls]

Dan Murray and Neal Horgan signed new contracts with City

[Black and White]

Actually Jim Magilton has said that Billy clarke does not feature in his plans, his loan is up at xmas for darlington and his contract is up at end of season at Ipswich so chances are that he could end up back here!

So when are Kilkenny coming back to the first division? :D

[adamd164]

Neale Fenn (Bohemians) and Davin O'Neill (Cobh) to Cork City.

[micls]

Kevin Murray (CObh) supposed to be on his way to City too

[CSFShels]

How are Cork signing all these players? Are they actually going to be allowed play Premier football next season? Disgrace.

[micls]

How are Cork signing all these players?
Current players have taken pay cuts(large ones) and we only have 7 players under contract at the moment.

Its certainly not a sugar daddy pumping money in. Money in =money out


Are they actually going to be allowed play Premier football next season?
If the deadline is in fact 31st of january(the rule confuses me) then I dont see why not.

we apparently have contacted all players about the payments they are owed.



Disgrace.

How so?

[CSFShels]

It has been fairly well reported that the deadline was November 30th, Cork can claim they weren't aware all they want, but theres not a hope that this is true. If a decent proportion of fans know this, then theres no excuse for the head of a board not knowing it.

And it'd be a disgrace, because there are no point in having such rules if they aren't going to be implemented.

Ps. Sorry for going off-topic.

[adamd164]

It's not Nov 30th, read the rule book. If debts are cleared or agreed by Jan 31st, then club meets the licensing criteria. Fact.

[holidaysong]

How much do CCFC owe in wages?

[eelmonster]

It's not Nov 30th, read the rule book. If debts are cleared or agreed by Jan 31st, then club meets the licensing criteria. Fact.

You can prove anything with facts.

[adamd164]

License agreement rule states, quote: "The licence applicant must prove that... it has no payables overdue towards employees or Revenue/social/tax authorities as at November 30 of the year preceding the season to be licensed unless by the following January 31 they have been fully settled, deferred by mutual agreement with the creditor or are subject to a not obviously unsound dispute submitted to a competent authority."

I just wish people would read the rules themselves before assuming they know what they're on about.

Please read the rule.

Apart from the fact that it contradicts itself, it specifically mentions having people paid by January 31st if they're not paid by Nov 30th. Most people seem to think this means a deal has to be in place by Nov 30th, which it was.

Gints Freimanis also on his way to Cork City

http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=wCatIHAFnnM

[brianw82]

Gints looks like a quality player from that clip. The new Fahey?

[micls]

Ah the wonders of youtube :D

He trained with us during the summer and the other players were saying he was quality but then examinership happened so he headed to Longford. Dunno what happened tthere

[Longfordian]

We didn't get him registered by the end of the window so he just trained with us and played a few friendlies. Good player but I wouldnt say he'll be the new Fahey!.

[Pablo Escobar]

Wasn't there something about him having a brother living in Longford? That might explain it.

[GuisaSaigon]

Glenn Fitzpatrick to a Vietnam club of all places!

Big money in the V- League. It's full of African and Brazilian players. Seriously corrupt though, half the country's referees have been jailed. A fair few players have been done for match fixing too. An ex Pat's player should fit right in!
http://www.thanhniennews.com/sports/?catid=5&newsid=24846

[pineapple stu]

Wouldn't be the first player to go from Pat's to Vietnam.

Or the first to go from UCD to Vietnam!

Be very wary of youtube footage - when we signed goalkeeper Dimitri Brinias, someone found clips of him on Youtube which made him look like a genius. He wasn't.

:D
I agree, but he's already been on trial and Mathews is a big fan

[wexfordned]

How are Cork signing all these players? Are they actually going to be allowed play Premier football next season? Disgrace.

At the moment Cork players have received about two thirds of what it owed.

Backroom staff have however been shafted. Offered less than 10% so of what is owed. If they sign any players before they get paid Matthews will be a staff of one in the dugout next season

[micls]

All our backroom staff got the same afaik, same as other creditors. A lot of them are happy to write off the money(or were a while back when I spoke to them) as most are city fans(in the office anyway).

Its unfortunate but the same happened to the other creditors. They got screwed.

Players will get their money cos they have to for us to get a license.

Bialek with Pats :D

Worse. he was on trial with us for a few weeks.

[adamd164]

A Longford fan was telling me Freimanis is class. Mathews sent him up there when we went into examinership, knowing he could bring him back down once we were out.

Apparently he's down here now anyway. And I know its a dangerous game to judge him on a YouTube video but looks promising. Certainly better than playing Darren Murphy right wing, he's a centre mid through and through.

Not dismissing the player but anyone can look class in friendlies. Brian Morris-Roe was the best player in the country in friendlies...
