You do realise we use the euro here!Quote:

Seems they're fairly busy too, Eddie McCallion has re-signed.Quote:

Basically the same thing though new manager might not want someone that was there the season before just as much as he might not want someone new brought in.Quote:

I have no problem with the re-signing of player i think it would be stupid not to for the same reasons you pointed out..Quote:

Whadeve. Bit touchy, aren't you, guessing that innovative webpage is run by you or your mates:(Quote:

He was never strictly employed by the club as far as I'm aware and, again, as far as I'm aware the board didn't solicit applications from anyone other than Kenny. I'd have thought with his background he'd expect to be in the running for a job at least at English League One level.Quote:

Aye from Plymouth, but has 6 months left on his contract and I think they would release him earlierQuote:

As per that LOI blog
What changes would you like to see made to the website? All suggestions are welcome.Quote:

As for O'Grady, if he does sign he'd be given a good reception down here anyway, really nice guy. I remember his first game against us after leaving, he scored in Turner's Cross and didn't celebrate... don't see that too much.
rory patterson would be a great signing for derry.
Assistant manager no? Who else would have been employing him?Quote:

Good to see that happening from time to time, John Russell didn't celebrate a goal he scored in Terryland for Sligo before as well.Quote:

Not really, he's from/lives in Sligo and is a Rovers fan so probably happy to sign on relatively low wage, it's not his only job. He'd be great to have around even if he doesn't get much playing time, gives it his all every time he plays for us.Quote:

Bit like the Evening Herald story that Cook was to take over at Shams. Never going to happen. Its Blighty or Bust for Cookie.Quote:

Aswell as that I think he could still do a job for us, especially when a game is tight with 15 minutes to go. Will bring passion and good experience to the dressing room too.Quote:

So, who was paying him?Quote:
