View Full Version : Rumour Mill
Saying as the transfer window is around the corner i've started a thread of rumours or done deals for players coming and going. I'll start off then..
We have signed Darren Kelly and are currently talking to Owen Morrison. As for departures it seem eamon doherty is on his way. His contract is up at the end of the year so he mite stay till then.

He's looked pretty abysmal and disinterested this season.
Cork seem to have enough cover up front...I imagine a winger would be top of your shopping list?

Im hoping Kearney comes back in July.
Scoring goals has been a big problem for us. We don't have a striker who is going to score 20 goals like a Farren or a Byrne. John O'Flynn is a great finisher but he doesnt pose the constant threat to defences like he did 2 season ago.
Zayed is quick and has a presence up front. I hate talking about potential but he has a lot of good qualities.

Read 2 contradictory articles re. Zayed on Friday. One claimed he'd turned town the Drogs because he wasn't able to commit to full time football right now, the other said he was excited at the prospect of turning full tiime and awaiting offers:confused:
Leech is suppose to be joining GUFC on loan for the rest of the season along with maybe a few more from Drogheda.
If it's left up to Leech to decide who he wants to join, Galway or Rovers there's only one winner. Of course he may not have a choice

According to Gary Kelly, Drogheda United have offered some fella nicknamed Sharpie who was with Leeds United and Shrewsbury €3,000 a week.
I heard Rory Hamill of Ballymena was linked with bohs this week

I heard that Glen Crowe and Joseph Ndo had signed pre-contract agreements with Drogheda and will move during the transfer window.
You can judge for yourself how much salt you want to take that with.
I have it from the top men in Bohs that GF will not be given more money to bring in players and if he wants to do that he will have to offload some of our player/retards first.

He isn't with Walsallany more. Here is a bio. I remember him in the Premiership, but is seems he is past it now.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Paul Devlin (born 14 April 1972, in Birmingham, England) is a Scottish football player. He plays as an attacking midfielder, usually on the right hand side. He qualified as a Scottish international through Scottish relatives, despite being born in England.
Devlin began his professional career at Notts County in the 1991-1992 season, eventually playing 141 times for the club, and scoring 25 times. In January 1996 his form was enough to attract Birmingham City, who signed him, with Devlin scoring a further 7 times before the end of the season. The following season saw him score 16 times, and he contributed a further 5 goals in the 1997-1998 season before signing with Sheffield United in February 1998. Devlin, a hard-working player with a habit of getting booked, fitted in with the Blades' physical style, notching 24 goals in 145 games for the club (November 1998 briefly saw him loaned back to Notts County, where he played a further 5 times).
Come February 2002, Devlin was to return to Birmingham, manager Steve Bruce signing him to provide cover for his main strikers. This second spell, now in the Premier League, saw Devlin play 77 times, scoring 7 goals. At the end of the 2003-2004 season Devlin was released, joining Watford. He added steel and experience to the Championship side, scoring 3 goals in 32 appearances in 2004-2005. On 17 January 2006 he joined Walsall on a free transfer, but was injured on his debut just a week later. Upon his return to the first team he was sent off for an elbow to the face of an opponent. After 9 appearances for 'The Saddlers' he asked to be released after being left on the bench by then manager Kevan Broadhurst for a game against AFC Bournemouth in April 2006. It was a controversial, coming as it did whilst Walsall were in the midst of a struggle to remain in League One, which they ultimately failed in.
Devlin won the first of his 10 Scotland caps in the 2002 friendly against Canada, and last played for them in September 2003, against The Faeroes in a Euro 2004 qualifying match.

According to Gary Kelly, Drogheda United have offered some fella nicknamed Sharpie who was with Leeds United and Shrewsbury €3,000 a week.
Here is the guy...
Kevin Sharp (born September 19, 1974 in Ontario) is a Canadian footballer who plays as a left-back. On April 8, 2006 he was released by English League Two club Shrewsbury Town, whom he captained.
He began his career as at French club AJ Auxerre, but left in 1992 for England, where he has spent the rest of his career. His first English club was Leeds United, joining for a £60,000 fee. He made just 17 league appearances in three years at the Yorkshire club, then one of the top clubs in England.
Moving to Wigan in November 1995 for a £100,000 fee, he made 217 appearances in six years. Wigan won promotion to Division Two in 1997.
In November 2001 he joined Wrexham on a free transfer. He played just 15 times for the Welsh club, and Wrexham were relegated from Division Two that season. In August 2002, Sharp left for Huddersfield Town on another free transfer. Sharp played regularly, but again his club were relegated from Division Two. Yet again moving to a Div.2 club on a free transfer and yet again relegated, Sharp completed an unhappy hat-trick with S****horpe United.
A season in the newly-renamed fourth tier of English football, Football League Two, ended in promotion for S****horpe, but Sharp was to stay in the division. He had made 46 league appearances - exactly half of S****horpe's league matches over the two years with the club. Sharp joined Shrewsbury prior to the 2005-06 season, with manager Gary Peters installed him as club captain. However, in early 2006, loss of form resulted in Shrewsbury fans turning against him, and Peters was forced to drop him from the team at the end of February 2006. Playing on only two further occasions in the following six weeks, he was released.
Sharp is now looking for a new club ahead of the 2006-07 season, and as a free agent, can join a new club immediately.

Well you'll be glad to know that Cork could not mtach Drogheda's bid for Zayed of €50,000. As a part of the deal Mark Leech will also sign for Bray for the rest of the season. Should happen over the next few weeks.
Where did you get the Bios Philly?
In other news, can the aul'wans in here shut up complaining here (put it in Support or report the post, don't go looking for an argument) and can the idiots stop posting childish rubbish.
Apparently pats are signing a winger called Neil Prince from non league England

Here's hoping!

Chances are Harps will have to offload a few players in July as our gates have collapsed totally and the budget will almost certainly have to be cut.

He'd be a good signing for a club here for at least a year but would he be able to play CL or UC.

Are you having a laugh? He might have a worse combover than Paul Keegan but he's still a class player. Anyway, if he's coming home he's hardly gonna move to Sligo is he?? That's not even in Dublin right?? ;)
