View Full Version : Close Season/Pre-Season Rumours
In no way a dig but what do you think Towell is on?
There should be some good cliches ok on Richie Towell this season.
No idea what he's on, but I know not that many are on more than 500, thats for sure.

Get it right....it's meth mostly.
If he's in Oriel he's unlikely to be on grass.

This annoys me-
It’s known that other club directors have become equally frustrated with the Griffin transfer, so much so that the club may well opt to take their chances by signing the player and allowing a Tribunal to decide the compensation fee to be paid to the “Lilywhites.”
I have no bother with Derry getting this done asap,the lad has made it known that he wont be back in OP anytime soon, but the hot air being blown is serious.Just sign the lad and go to tribunal as said,no good mouthing out of ya Mr. Barrett.
Becoming a boring saga ok, his contact is completed at Dundalk, Derry want him, he wants to go but Derry wont pay up. We are talking about 10/15k here not huge money. Plus Dundalk need to pay down some of that to his junior club.
Open the cheque book Mr Barrett, or go to tribunal, these are the options.
Derry are greedy feckers. They are happy to rake in large transfer fees but refuse to pay a small development fee that Dundalk are due.

Nothing wrong with trying to get the best deal possible, but why be so disrespectfull about those who are negotiating on behalf of Dundalk (who are also entitled to try to get the best deal possible)?
The clear inferances from Mr Barrett is that Dundalk are being unreasonable.
This piece from the article is more illuminating
It’s believed Derry had offered a nominal figure with further finance making its way to Oriel Park provided Griffin made a specified number of first team appearances over the period of his contract.
Perhaps when Derry realise that petty cash money won't do the trick, they can get this sorted. If that is too frustrating for the frazzled nerves of the Derry board, sign him and go to tribunal. Simple really

Is Griffin highly rated by Dundalk fans? He was at Lansdowne the other night getting the goal of the year award. If Dundalk are only asking 10-15k it looks like the Derry management are all that convinced about him. Is the court case a factor here?

Who? Was training with Shels? On who's forum?
Seems to be a trend going about,
Quigley bust up with Croly - Linked to Limerick
Purcell bust up with Dunne - Linked to Limerick
Dan Murray possibly not signing for Cork - Linked to Limerick
Griffin deal looks like falling through - Linked to Limerick
Davin O Neill not signing for Cork - Linked to Limerick
not one has ended up signing or even training with us yet we are the first to be linked with them.

Defintely a good player, didnt play as much last season as 2011. Huge potential, but he turned down an improved contract, and it will probably benefit him for a change of scene. If he can focus on his career, he could have a good future ahead.
Well he's pictured in front of todays Derry Journal in full Derry City tracksuit and is being referred to as a Derry player, so it looks like it will go to tribunal if no compo is agreed

When a deal falls through between a player and a top club, the default setting is that Limerick are rich enough to sign the player in question. I don't support Shels BTW

Brat was at monaghan U/20's for a while. Terrible keeper, never got a look in. Poor attitude too from what I can remember.

Pope Benedict has a niggle hardly likely to feature this season, there is good word from a high up ecclesiastical source that Peter Turkson of Ghana is a shoe in for next Vatican supremo and is expected to be odds on before the conclave.

Very good player for us before we sold him (Cork City). Woul dbe an asset to any team if he's still as good as he was.
He's signing back with Cork City

If its true then that is a fantastic signing, can play centre back or in the middle of the park, one of the best headers of a ball that I have ever seen in Loi, likes a tackle aswell!!
