Transfer Rumours 201X Season

[Roo69]

Bray have been speaking with a number of players, Christy Fagan being their no. 1 target but looking likely he will end up at Dundalk from what i've heard.

[Charlie Darwin]

I've heard that the Akinade deal to Sligo has fallen through. Anyone in Sligo hear this?
Surely you're not suggesting they've thrown the towel in?

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Yeah that was rumoured last week. About a day after the Mirror exclusive.

And it's back on again supposedly

[nigel-harps1954]

Dundalk is closer and they'd likely pay him more though.

Kenny hardly wants to be taking in part-time players now when the club is looking to progress onto the next level though? Would love to see him at Harps but don't think he'd fancy coming up and down from Belfast for a pittance of a wage.

[bluewhitearmy]

Conor McCormack saying that it's being more difficult to live off his sterling wages whilst living in the south. I'd say he has a point, alright. Maybe we could just go back to paying players in euro? It'll certainly have an effect on our ability to attract southern players next season though.

Here's the Derry Journal article, if you can tolerate the ads: http://www.derryjournal.com/sport/football/derry-city/derry-city-s-southern-players-taking-a-pounding-1-7654818

Had been told we were after him but thought there would be no hope we could get him if ye wanted him. This could help.

I've heard that the Akinade deal to Sligo has fallen through. Anyone in Sligo hear this?

That move was never on. He was spotted in Sligo on other 'working' duties and someone put two and two together.

[brendy_éire]

Max Karner and Christian Castells leaving Derry, as expected.

[pineapple stu]

Were they any good?

Two unusual signings, I think it's fair to say?

[joey B]

Dont think they ever really played much due to some really good young players coming through at City.

[bluewhitearmy]

Hearing Aaron Greene could be off to Bohs.

Were they part time or full time?

[NewGuy]

Hearing Aaron Greene could be off to Bohs.

That would seem a strange move for him. Why would he leave Limerick?

Just seen this now. Is he any good Galway fans?

[GC13]

No, he was laid off when the B team was wound up. He's at Mochta's now, google tells me.

Yes Mochta's, a fair few more ex LOI players too including Glen Crowe and Philly Hughes.

Try and hang onto him this time. You made a balls of your last Horgan.

[nigel-harps1954]

Daryl has been in his ear telling to spend a year at Cork and then f*ck off to Dundalk where everything is fantastic and wonderful.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

That move was never on. He was spotted in Sligo on other 'working' duties and someone put two and two together.

#Bohs (https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bohs?src=hash) are delighted to announce that striker Ismahil Akinade has re-signed for 2017.

[SwanVsDalton]

Were they any good?

Two unusual signings, I think it's fair to say?

Castells was no good. Karner may have been decent but he got injured pretty quickly and never looked fit.

[Dalymountrower]

Jamie Doyle from Shels to Bohs, ex UCD. Any good Stu/Bonny/

[pineapple stu]

Doyler's a good player alright. Strange that he left us for Shels; thought he could do better.

Basically has pace and can go past a player well. Interesting to see how he'll manage against better defenders.

[total hoofball]

From what I saw of Doyle at Shels he definitely has the ability to cut in the premier division, tall, strong, good feet, can play as a winger or striker but he can be lazy, he'll need to graft alot harder in the top flight.

[brendy_éire]

Patterson and McBride staying at Derry

[KR's Post]

Christy Fagan spotted coming out of the Carlisle Grounds about 7pm.

[White Horse]

Christy Fagan spotted coming out of the Carlisle Grounds about 7pm.

It's not a proper rumour unless it involves the Red Cow or a motorway service station.

[White Horse]

Sean Maguire to sign for Preston tomorrow according to a local paper in Cork. A good move for him.

[sbgawa]

Darrayl horgan signing for Hull.

[bluewhitearmy]

That would seem a strange move for him. Why would he leave Limerick?

Only reason I could see would be him not wanting to travel. I hope he stays though would much rather him than Dennehy.

[bluewhitearmy]

We are being linked with Kilduff for the 5th or 6th year in a row.

[nigel-harps1954]

Darrayl horgan signing for Hull.

Source?

[patrickccfc]

If the source spelt his name like that, then I wouldn't trust it

[sbgawa]

If the source spelt his name like that, then I wouldn't trust it


I'm going to have to either slow my typing or speed up my brain : )
Source is a season ticket holder pal of mine at Hull,
That might not be gospel but its at least on a par with "Christy Fagan seen leaving Bray" : )

Hull would be believable imo

[nr637]

Paddy Barrett (CH) & Ciaran Kilduff (CF) of Dundalk and Colm Horgan (RB) of Galway allegedly are the names that have been popping up on City fans forums as possible signings. But if Maguire goes off to Preston we will be on the outlook for another striker and while Christy Fagan is the top choice, I reckon he will favour Dundalk to Cork, so we will have to scour the rest of the league clubs.

[Nah Nah Nah Nah]

Achille Campion signing for Cork supposedly

[brendy_éire]

Roll up, roll up!
Take your pick:

http://www.pfai.ie/transfer-list

(a lot of those DOBs make me feel old)

[Yossarian]

(a lot of those DOBs make me feel old)

All of them make me feel old.

[Lim till i die]

Quick glance I'd take Maxi Kougan, Conor McCormack and Paddy Cregg.

Cregg based almost solely on the fact he reminds me of a midfielder from 1956.

[therebel1]

Some good players there, would expect a few of these to re-sign.

[disgruntled]

A few on there would do a good job for some clubs.
I try not to look at DOB's any more :o

[sadloserkid]

I'm older than every player on that list by at least 3 years... by Christ, I hope somebody give Colin Healy another year! :o

[**FrOsTy**]

Seemingly Waterford in talks with Lee Grace from Wexford. Also, looking likely that Alan Reynolds is getting the managers job, with Pat Fenlon as a Director of Football. Rennie keen on a number of Cork 19's and Conor Ellis.

[GC13]

Every league manager was in Drogheda last Friday, bet all (premier league managers) were hoping Wexford would come through for two reasons, firstly Wexford would be no threat as they are one of the worst most predictable long ball sides of all time, no invention or will to play football and secondly so they could pick up some Drogheda Utd players for a bargain. Average age of Drogs is 22yrs some good young players, it will be interesting how many will remain at the club? Likes of Alan Matthews, Pat Fenlon, Collie O'Neill etc must have been delighted Wexford went down as they will be one less threat to them next season.

[gufcfan]

All of them make me feel old.

Lads born since the millennium playing senior football... eek...

[nigel-harps1954]

Every league manager was in Drogheda last Friday,

No, they weren't.

[Charlie Darwin]

Wexford weren't a long ball team you messer.

[IsMiseSean]

Every league manager was in Drogheda last Friday.

Galway's certainly was...

[ToberonaTornado]

Dundalk v Wexford Youths this season;

1-2 (March) 84th min winner - Ferrycarraig Park
3-2 (May) - injury time winner - Oriel Park
0-1 (Aug) - Youths played with 10 for the last 30 mins.- Ferrycarraig Park

:rolleyes:So yeah horrible long ball team with no invention or will to play football at all!

[pineapple stu]

In fairness, I don't think three results with no context at all make any argument for or against Wexford's style of play.

[oldyouth]

Lee Grace is far too good for the 1st Division. I expect him to end up at an unnamed team in the West

[joey B]

Wexford aren't a long ball team,I should know I watched one all season!!

[El-Pietro]

Spoke to Ellis on Monday night. He wants to go out on loan for 6 months or a year, but he wants to go to a Premier team. Obvioulsy that all depends on whether a Premier team want him or not.
