Garry Breen in talks with us apparently.
Solid young Centre half that would be a great signing for Waterford IMO,loads of potential and can score goals too.

Garry Breen in talks with us apparently.
Was a little hit or miss with us this year. Has bags of potential however and if he improves on certain aspects on his game - namely his concentration - then he could be a good Premier division defender in a few years time. Would be a good player for any first division team and would be a good move for Waterford.

Devo loves the club would he not invest some of his cash?
Jesus any Bray fan would know that Devo has put serious money into the club over the years, sure he doesn't even take a penny in expenses or wages from the club for Donkey's years. He has done more for our club than anyone else, time for new blood to invest instead of relying on the sam epeople all the time

Massive gamble, but i hope it works. Just hope Byrne doesnt pull a Fenn in July!
Karl Sheppard to Shams....
Not unless he cuts in half what he wants wages wise.
Dundalk have talked to Jason Byrne and Mark Quigley. Sligo interested in Quigley too
Good man Dodge, you were first off the blocks with this, both confirmed in the last few hours.

Seen him during the cup semi final of 2009 and he stood out as a defender that could pick a pass and good in the air: remember thinking at the time he would be worth offering a contract. A little suprised hes gone back to the FD, seen him a couple of times this season and apart from a boo boo back pass in the semi against Pats seemed to do Ok. How was is season overall is the question I suppose?
Edit: Wasnt he the FD player of the year 2009

Two players gone from Boh's. Is it a sign of the way things are going to go.
Should be a good move for Dundalk getting the two players. Will help them to challenge in the top half next season.
They might even score against pats next season!!!

They were free agents, since the end o season, so they were already gone.

Just reading that, some crazy transfer merry-go-round there!
Summary from today's NOTW
Shelley, Keegan, O'Neill wanted by Shamrock Rovers
Both Shelley and Keegan have made it clear that Rovers are their 'last resort'. Hasn't gone down too well with our fans. Gary O'Neill will stay at Fingal if they pay him more than we will. Oman to Fingal? I had heard he was going to Derry, anyone?

Word on our forum is he may be coming back along with Higgins & McGlynn. All rumours though

Given Kenny already had the chance to sign them this season and opted not to.......
Reading the rumours on here, even those about Harps, is a bit unsettling. This could be one of the toughest ever years for LOI clubs- commercial revenue is incredibly difficult to come across so clubs will be more reliant on gates than before. This year has been relatively stable (i.e. most clubs have kept their problems in house) but if clubs aren't careful next year could be carnage.
Of course every club will claim their getting their signings for relatively small wages. But we've heard that before.

Deflecting from the real targets then I take it going by his comments in todays Journal?

Think the difference these days is the money simply isint there. Therre will be no sugar dadys handing out cash like years past. On top of that its a buyers market at the moment and if players want to keep playing football they will have to drop their wage expectations.
Jesus any Bray fan would know that Devo has put serious money into the club over the years, sure he doesn't even take a penny in expenses or wages from the club for Donkey's years. He has done more for our club than anyone else, time for new blood to invest instead of relying on the sam epeople all the time
What has the money been spent on?
Devo is a man who owes nothing at all to Bray Wanderers. He deserves a statue in the town.

This is the main problem. Everybody can say their club aren't paying out big wages but no one really knows what the clubs are paying. Only what people might be told they are paying. Every year we hear people say their club have slashed their budget etc... but then 6 months down the line are still in trouble and wages are not beng paid.
I think everyone has to admit the first thing that comes to mind when their club sign a big name player is how we are affording him, or i wonder what he is on that we managed to get him. Everyone fears that there club could go belly up no matter how well they are being told their club is run.

Yep ,the fact we offered them three months pay to leave clearly indicates our "determination" to hold on to them :rolleyes:

Robbie Keane today signed a five year contract with Sporting Fingal. He said 'this is a dream come true for me. I've been a massive fan of Sporting since I was a child and my father used to bring .....wait a minute, Sporting Fingal?, I thought my agent said Sporting Lisbon'.

You sign them back on smaller contracts obviously.
We've told all our non-scholarship players they're free to leave. Doesn't mean we don't want to keep them; just can't offer them the same contract as the year gone by.

Yeah Barry Ryan wont be playing with GUFC next year, so there is a great chance he will be at limerick next season

Guess which four games Ryan was suspended for?
He'd be an excellent signing for a Div 1 team. Would believe it too cos he seems happy to play close to home these days.

If we keep any of them it will be on vastly reduced terms and probobly only as part of a settlement to terminate the contracts already there. In fairness there are certainly some of our squad we would like to keep but I suspect we would let them all go if we could afford the "get out" fee.

Yup, one of Devo and Tarzan high-fiving while Daz gives them the thumbs up!

I'l put it another way smart hole. He was offered a contract by us, went back to Bucko to see if he would top it. Fact is it's sad when a player would rather play for Fingal than Rovers for a few extra quid.
Are you for real? You think any of you players wouldn't move for the money? I guess they're all amateurs there?
