Mid-Season Transfer Rumours

[sligoman]

Can't find the old thread so made a new one.

Lee McEvilly (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lee_McEvilly) (Barrow A.F.C.) is supposedly after signing for us, no official confirmation yet though. Would have played with Cook at Accrington.

[Aaron]

Danny Lafferty of Celtic is supposed to have signed with us, no confirmation yet though. Also rumours of Darren McCauley of Celtic, Michael McCrudden of Newcastle and Owen Morrison signing

[Sam_Heggy]

Chris Breen and Tony Shields both training with Harps at present.

[Trainee]

Anto Flood to a club in cyprus

[poster]

Heard Stephen O 'Donnell is close to signing for Shams.

[Dalymountrower]

Heard Stephen O 'Donnell is close to signing for Shams.


How many by-passed by long - ball central midfielders will they have then?

[Dunny]

Colin Larkin linked with us.(apparently)

[sheao]

Neil Horgan and Billy Woods could be signing for us.

[Terry]

karl Sheppard to sligo

[bullit]

Colin Larkin linked with us.(apparently)
Larkin is injury prone.Also he still has a year left on his contract at Hartlepool,so unless he is released i cant see DFC buying him out.

[Dillonman]

Stephen O'Flynn ex Limerick to Dundalk is what I heard! Northampton released him a few weeks ago.

[MariborKev]

Danny Lafferty of Celtic is supposed to have signed with us, no confirmation yet though. Also rumours of Darren McCauley of Celtic, Michael McCrudden of Newcastle and Owen Morrison signing

Three of them will happen from what I hear, one won't.

"Barrow joint-manager Dave Bayliss has promised the club's supporters that forward Lee McEvilly will be replaced before the start of next season.

The 28-year-old is on his way to the Republic of Ireland to play for Sligo Rovers, a move which many fans are unhappy about."

Seems like its happening anyway.
We've brought in Murphy and Barrett, but one more player definately coming in, not sure who yet tho. :confused:

[Bunny Kelly]

Keith Foy will look thin compared to this chap!!! Good player otherwise though

Well McCauley wants to stay across the water so i'd guess the other 3. I know Lafferty and McCrudden want to sign, but not sure on Morrison

[GUFCghost]

Anto Flood is going to Cyprus I hear,sound like a load of Bull****.:poo:

[Mr A]

A lot of very worrying rumours from a Galway perspective there, what's the story with that?

[Ezeikial]

Nick Leeson has offered Galway players to other clubs - all with fees attached. If anyone bites at the fees quoted - O'Donnell, Conneely, Flood and others are certainly available. I don't know the story with Sheppard - if he is on loan from Everton, Galway would hardly off-load him unless they can also get a fee.

[gael353]

So does this mean that glaway are in some sort of bother already? Surely the FAI/eamon naughton will come to their aid.

[Sam_Heggy]

what's the story with Dave Rogers at Cork?

Haven't seen his name on the teamlist for a while now and he isn't mentioned as being injured.

Didn't feel the need for a new thread.

[Sam_Heggy]

The obvious place to look then :o

I wonder where will Dave end up? Shels possibly?

[**FrOsTy**]

He was talking to us before the game down here saying he wasn't happy in Cork and that Tomm Dunne dropped him because he missed training to bring his daughter to hospital. Told us he got his badges in Scotland but doesn't want to move his family from Ireland. Management next I would say.

I thought he was managing a junior side in Cork as well. He was certainly announced as a manager for someone at the start of the season. I had presumed he was doing both, playing with Cork and Managing the junior team.

[Ezeikial]

The Indo reported this back in early May


with Dave Rogers, the one squad member based in Dublin -- the ex-Shels man has started a new job as a postman in Balbriggan.

http://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/league-of-ireland/corks-long-and-grinding-road-2168513.html

A job as a postman in North County Dublin was hardly every likely to tie in with playing for Cork. At least the annual "Rogers departs from club" is a little more low key this season then last.

Bandon did annouce him previously as club coach

[Martinho II]

heard last nite that Fiachra McArdle the player we signed from Sporting Fingal last close season has left us for good stating his lack of first team action as the reason for him quitting. As of yet no clubs have being linked to him to the best of my knowledge..

Heard last night that Don Cowan from Shamrock Rovers has signed for us. As of yet I havent being told whether it is permanent or a loan move..

[sligoman]

if he is on loan from EvertonHe's not, they released him.

Rumour on the Rovers forum he wants to offload him along with
Kavanagh.Barrett ,cahill been released while surprsingly Rice offloaded to Fingal with Turner in a swap deal with somebody from galway.

He was taken on full time by An post and so he was'nt training at all with the squad in the end. The club asked him was there a way he could train more despite the job, but he could'nt .

[corkharps]

Could you not even pretend there was a row? Couple of punches thrown etc?

[Olander]

Yes, of course. Sure the FAI love "glaway" and hate Limerick. Tis mighty.

[Lim till i die]

Billy Woods could be signing for us.

LOL

Where was Limerick mentioned :confused:

Galway are obviously an absolute mess and are trying to cut costs on the basis that no matter how crap they are Bray will be worse.

Forgive me for being dim but how would being a postman prevent someone training?? Is that not one of the more flexible jobs a player could have. :confused:

Losing him is a MASSIVE blow to Cork, he would be a superb signing for Shels or any other First Division club who could lay hands on him.

[danthesaint]

Ollie Cahill suppose to be coming to us i hear

[razor]

Could you not even pretend there was a row? Couple of punches thrown etc?Well of course there was but the An Post thing was far more interesting.
Another rumour doing the rounds is that Dunne gave him a dressing down after his backpass cost us a goal at home to Bluebell and that he walked out.
I'd imagine the truth is probably a mixture of both stories


Losing him is a MASSIVE blow to CorkWhile he was immense at the start of the season, his heart hasn't been in it the last couple of games. If we get Hoggie & Billy it won't be so much of a loss as you'd think.

[**FrOsTy**]

Seen Billy Woods play with Midelton in the Munster Senior Cup final last week. Played centre mid. Done ok to be fair to him.

[Olander]

Obviously??? A few eejits on foot.ie are speculating about us selling our whole squad and you take that as gospel. i will be shocked if we sell any more than 2 players during the window and dont bring in as many to replace them. wait and see I suppose :)

[redobit]

Any progress on the lad, Craig ... , that came 3rd in the Footballs Next Star programme on Sky - signed for Shams at the start of the season.

[micls]

LOL

:confused: What's funny about Woodsy signing?

Dunno how flexible it was but he couldnt make it down to Cork for training so wasn't going to work.

I think he's more of a loss in terms of a character with experience in the squad that football wise, defense is probably the only place we have a bit of cover, especially if the 2 lads sign.

[Rasputin]

Yes, of course. Sure the FAI love "glaway" and hate Limerick. Tis mighty.
They did move the goal posts to arrange your promotion ahead of Dundalk in all their wisdom.
Look at both respective clubs now.

I was thinking more in general than going by the foot.ie rumours thread, which lets face it is largely nonsense.

I bow to your superior knowledge. ;)


:confused: What's funny about Woodsy signing?

Last time I saw Billy Woods play he was being given the runaround by a 17 year old in an A team game for the old Cork City.

I'm sure he'll do some kind of job though.

On Dave Rodgers, it's just the rumours coming out of your squad were that twas more to do with the manager treating him badly than his job. Just postman seems a strange one to prevent someopne training.

[Cuyahoga]

Any progress on the lad, Craig ... , that came 3rd in the Footballs Next Star programme on Sky - signed for Shams at the start of the season. Yeah Craig Walsh is playing for Shamrock Rovers A team. He was on the
bench for the senior team but didn't play. He is still young will get his chance in the future i'm sure.

[micls]

He'l bring some much needed experience and a bit of quality on the left to the team. His legs obviously aren't what they used to be but he still has the skill.

Well I'm sure if he was a postman in Cork it wouldn't have mattered, but I doubt he had the time or energy to get up at 5 to do the job, get to Cork for half 5 that afternoon for training for a couple of hours and then spend the 2 and a half hours in the car again to get home to his family a few days a week. It's a very long day.

I'd be sceptical of the rumours but i'd say if there was any issue with the manager it was because he wasn't training, which he wasn't.

[gufc2000]

Anto Flood definitely looks like he is joining a Cypriot team in the July transfer window.

It says in the star that we are talking to a Scottish striker about joining as a replacement

[pineapple stu]

Any ideas which Cypriot team?

Nice move for him, I suppose.

Seannie has spoken to Martin McGowan about joining Galway. He is a brother of Michael McGowan, and was with Seannie at Dundalk last year - but got very little game time in the first team.

He would be modest cost, but afraid he is also modest standard.

[Ciaran W]

Alex Williams maybe? :p

[Dillonman]

Alex Williams maybe? :p

I remember the press release form you lot for him saying it was for a full year so unless Galway won the lotto then I cant see them paying any cash for him!
