It's in a couple of papers over here quoting Craig Levein as confirming that he likes the player but also has other options. Debatable whether Dundee Utd would fork out the money he would cost.

Also linking Darren Quigley to Falkirk. In years gone by they would have been seen as decent moves, not so sure now.

Is he out of contract or will Shels get some money?
It's a pity for them that Jayo didn't agree terms with Djurgardens coz €440k was a very good deal for him.

How many ex-league players are now playing in the SPL?

Aberdeen:
Richie Byrne
Gary Dempsey

Dundee United:
Noel Hunt

Motherwell:
Richie Foran
Danny Murphy

Actually I thought there were more when I started the list - anyone else?

Richie Baker is on trials at motherwell too.

I know I sent him off when refereeing him in a match once. I think that shock to his system has made him the player he is today.

Either that or he left Ireland because of the pettiness of the referees and you're to blame for a great loss to the domestic game:p .

Just guessing...was that in a Kennedy Cup game ?

I know he's not in Scotland now but did anyone see that Weso Hoolihan got the PFA Fans, Player of the Month award for League One?
He's on the up... :)

There's not a chance Dundee United would be offering anything like Djurgardens did last summer if reports are to be believed.

I agree. No SPL side outside Celtic, Rangers & Hearts would spend even 250k sterling on 1 player.

Maybe not but do you think if its a worthy 6 figure sum Ollie wud turn it down with the state Shels are in...I somehow dont think so.

That's what I thought when Djurgardens came calling. Don't forget, Bray are supposed to get 50% of the fee.

Well. remember they would only get half of it.

Edit - Poor Student beat me to it.

Yep, playing exceptional stuff and getting rave reviews. Wouldn't be surprised if he were to get their Player-of-the-Season award.

If anybody believes that Shels were offered a 6 figure sum for Jason Byrne :rolleyes:

FFS it was obvious he was being hawked around England but nobody wanted him

But he's not yellow....? :confused:

I'd have no problems pulling JC off one of my car wheels. I hope he didn't get it....

Is Jason Byrne out of contract now?

Does this means Shels rejected 400-600k offers for him when he only had 6 months left? Even by Ollie Byrne standards that makes no sense...

:confused:

:confused:

Was it not Byrne himself who decided against the move ? That's what I remember from reports at the time. I think Ollie would have bitten the hand off anyone offering in the region of half a million for any of his players.

:confused:

You can see the difference isn the seasons of Cork and Shels when one sells a striker and the other doesnt.
Top striker in the league for 2006.

How much is that worth now ?

The offer was 450K
half of that is 225K

What do we get now? even if its 50-100K then we have more than paid for the difference with Champions League, League win and Setanta Cup.

And NO, he's not out of contract.

He is out of contract as he has not been payed.

higgins

29/11/2006, 3:23 PM

Can I ask mods if people are allowed post like dublin15bohs just has when they offer nothing to back up their claim?

and I might as well ask,

dublin15bohs, how do you know this ?
another FACT I assume?

BohsPartisan

29/11/2006, 3:26 PM

Higgins, are you Ollie Bryne? Will you be suing D15 Bohs for saying something you don't like?

Dodge

higgins

29/11/2006, 3:40 PM

No I wont sue.

It's just something I don't like seeing on message boards. People who makes claims and won't/can't back them up.

It does nothing for the conversation.

I actually hear Hunt is going to Drogheda as he hasn't been paid.

higgins

29/11/2006, 3:41 PM

Its public knowledge he hasn't been paid. Jeesh...

The claim was that he is out of contract.

Keep up Dodge :rolleyes:

Dodge

29/11/2006, 3:43 PM

Higgins, the "back up" is the news reports all over the media recently. If you haven't read them and think this is just down to internet bitching, then fine, believe that

drinkfeckarse

29/11/2006, 3:43 PM

His contract would be deemed to be null and void if they fail to pay him in most circumstances. Technically free to go.

Dodge

29/11/2006, 3:49 PM

The claim was that he is out of contract.

Keep up Dodge :rolleyes:

*SIGH* SO you now you know **** all about contract law? If he hasn't been piad for 2 weeks, he's free to leave.

I cna't believe I defended you earlier...

higgins

29/11/2006, 4:12 PM

Defended me ??? ..... :D

I have never heard the one about Jason Byrne not being paid wages for over two weeks and being out of contract.

Dodge stop believing what you heard from people in here and provide some form of proof that he went over two weeks without payment and therefore is out of contract.

This has never been reported on to the best of my knowledge.

So again I will ask, how do you 'know it alls' know that Jason Byrne is out of contract.

Last time I heard about his contract he was under contract so I posted that. If there is evidence out there that says different lets hear it ?

Dr.Nightdub

Can you provide definitive proof that he IS under contract? You personally, not Gareth or Fintan or anyone else.

See? We can all do this. Welcome to the internet.
