Joseph Ndo

[avvenalaf]

Can anyone confirm?

[sligoman]

Apparently yes. Cook said it tonight at the Q&A

[akearins]

yes,according to dsc lads in forum with cookie and dermot kelly now. he is signed

[roversman]

be a great signing if it true
we need someone like him in midfield
now we might stop hitting it long the whole time

[kkontour]

But will the FAI accept the contract :doh:

[Redkenrover]

But will the FAI accept the contract :doh:
Ya we have signed him on the 2012 version so we should be ok!:p

[red bellied]

Midfield will be fairly competitive now, all fighting for the 2nd spot to play along side Ventre! Ndo finished the season with Bohs playing regularly on the left for Bohs though.

[sligored]

great signing - he is the type of player that will put bums on seats.
if cookie can get 100% out of him , i think we will have signed the best player in the loi.

[redbuli]

another midfielder? did he mention whether we're still on the lookout for a forward

we'd probably have the most exciting midfield in the league though once Russell comes fit

Ndo - Ryan - Russell - Dillon

[Boo_Boy]

Great signing!

[sligored]

cook said that he is signed to play behind a lone striker according to my source at the forum

[bingoballs]

I'm delighted. He is a class act.

[Brian Boru]

Comfortably the best. Most entertaining. Didn't he play for Cameroon.

[Rasputin]

Ya Cook wants to play him upfront, use his pace to get behind defenders.

[sligoman]

Comfortably the best. Most entertaining. Didn't he play for Cameroon.Yes. Wikipedia has him down as playing 21 times. He was at the 2002 World Cup but was just on bench.

[Brian Boru]

Will he be playing on Friday?

[CRFC&SRFC]

Delighted, only player ive ever applauded while playing for opposition team. He's different class and id imagine his experience will be huge addition around the squad..Hopfully its true...Hardly available Friday?

[gustavo]

Yes. Wikipedia has him down as playing 21 times. He was at the 2002 World Cup but was just on bench.

He played in the 98 World Cup also


Great signing when playing at his best

[D.24saint]

word from the wise to Sligo fans is not to get over excited by the Ndo signing the man is a lazy money grabber he can be the best player in the league by miles when he trys but he rarely does theres only one man in the league that can get anything out of him IMO and thats fenlon anyone else forget it just a warning lads!

[avvenalaf]

Extract from Wikipedia....

On the 6th November Joeseph Ndo played his last match for Bohemians against Bray Wanderers to clinch the title for The Gypsies after they won the league.Ndo rejected a new contract as he opted to play a higher standard of football.



Good to see he's achieved his objective.

He hee. His agent shopped him all around europe but no takers. He then contacted pats himself to offer his "services". He was rightly laughed out of the ground. Chancer of the highest order.

why do you call him a chancer?

[Mayo Red]

I think he's a good signing for us, getting on a bit maybe but still a seriously quality player, hopefully Cookie can get the best out of him!

[red_away]

Was he not on a "Pay per Play" deal at bohs last year...that is how they got the best out of him!

A very skillful player but prone to 'going missing'

[Dodge]

why do you call him a chancer?

Experience.

Even the year he won POTY award he only played 16 games for Shels. Has a tendency to get injured/ill and his last spell at Pats saw him become our most hated player. He even has his own doctor and in the past has refused to work with club doctors (untilthe threat of his wages being stopped saw him miraculously recover)

Undoubtedly talented, but I wouldn't sign him (for the third time) even if he was to play for nothing, and is work rate is questionable at best.

[avvenalaf]

Yeah, but has he ever tried dossing in front of the Forza boys?

Let's think positive. Give credit to Cook, he is not standing still. He's ambitious and from i have seen so far if we back and support him, he will make it a great year for Rovers. I wonder at times are these "knockers" real, genuine supporters or hurlers on the ditch! Ndo has proved himself on the bigger stage and is worth taking a chance on him.

[Dodge]

I wonder at times are these "knockers" real, genuine supporters

Real genuine Pats supporters who've witnessed his antics at two seperate spells with the club.

And trust me, I'm not who blindly slags off all ex players. This guy is an exception

I am sure the club are aware of this and have offered a type of contract to get the best out of Ndo.

[Dodge]

Yep, because the Chris Turner affair has shown that Sligo are the supreme masters of stong contract negotiations

Ah yeah, but who could afford the genius that is/was Richard Sadlier?

Ye can hang on to Cashie so. He's a real talent and workhorse.

[red bellied]

[QUOTE=Dodge;1337523]Yep, because the Chris Turner affair has shown that Sligo are the supreme masters of stong contract negotiations[/QUOTE

Dont worry Ndo wont be on one of those p iss taking contracts he had at Pats and he wont be on what Turner was offered before the cup final.

[Dodge]

good news all round so

[gufct]

Just Wondering the Story has been pulled on Extratime and whats the story with the Official Website?

Nothing much - probably that he's just agreed to join Shams.

how are ye affording the deal lads? thats some move for ye.. I thought it was a windup when I saw this news on the general forum...

[redarmyfaction]

He is getting minimun wage.

[Well Red]

The problem at Pats was that they did not have a manager with the ability to handle players like Joseph, we do have at Sligo and make no mistake about that.

[Martinho II]

He is getting minimun wage.

i hope so considerin his injury record over the years with shels and pats..

Feed them drink; thats how to keep them under the cosh.

[Only1Rovers]

He made 29 appearances for Bohs last season.... not bad I'd say....

[Only1Rovers]

He made 29 appearances for Bohs last season which is a good showing....

[avvenalaf]

Anyone know how many appearances he made with Bohs last year?

[jc46]

Forget about his appearances last year. It wont win us any games this year.Let's compliment Cook and look forward. Ndo will pay for himself over and over with the extra bums he will put on seats at the Showgrounds. A lot of people seem to be caught up in negativity and pessimism. Nobody wants to hear or be in the company of whingers and moaners. Think positive, fill the showgrounds and we could be league champions by end of season.

[akearins]

Dodge ever hear the saying people in glasshouses shouldnt throw stones
Paul Marney ring a bell

That will put "Dodge" back in his burrow!

[pineapple stu]

Yup, you really countered all his points there.

[Only1Rovers]

Hey! Did you know Ndo made 29 appearences for Bohs last season?

Yea, that's right 29.
