Akinade won't sign for Rovers because he has a contract on the table at Bohs.
Kieran Marty Waters is signing. Schlingermann is linked too although Delany has been offered a new contract. Could have two keepers, could be both bull... you never really know. Stephen Best, very good prospect, is staying on for another year anyway.
Kealon Dillon fell out with Keith Long which is a pity IMO because he's young and likes to get on the ball. He's only improving. He gives it a way a bit but he offers a great attacking impetus when playing.
Jason Byrne is leaving and hopefully retiring. Sad to see such a legend of the league struggle to play 20 minutes
He could do yet a job at Bray looking how they strikers performed this year...Quote:

Conversation on Friday in Inchicore
"Why isn't Treacy playing for them?"
"He is. Left win there. On the ball now"
10 minutes later. Same lad
"I'd like to see us sign Treacy for next season"
"You didn't even know he was playing..."
The power of the ex-international
Byrne, as brilliant as he has been in this league, can't play any big role for any team in it any more. Just doesn't have the legsQuote:

That press release is gas. Greatest league in the world.
Thats Rogers, Mountany, Boyle, Gartland, Gannon?, Meenan, SOD, Finn, Kilduff, O Connor (his brother too) all signed up for next season already (maybe missing 1 or 2)
Clubs are allowed to offer players under the age of 23 retainer contract offersQuote:

Always sounds like weird and extremely disconcerting behaviour to me.
Heard that Gannon could be on his way out of OrielQuote:

Money paid on Mountany (5 years ago) and Horgan have worked out excellent aswell.
Cheers for asking

I don't know. If it's a modest fee and the club can afford I don't see the problem. Any fee paid is likely to be less than the cost of paying a player for a season, and nobody bats an eyelid when a team adds an extra player.
I recall the hilarity and guffaws when Dundalk paid a fee for Daryl Horgan. Not many would quibble with that decision now.
It depends on the player and the situation.
In Horgan's case didn't a fee of some type have to be paid because he was u23 and offered terms by Cork?
I know I was one. He has improved no need since moving to Dundalk. One of the top 3 players in the league now IMOQuote:

The sort of player you need if you want to win trophies.

Paddy Barrett signs for 2016. Barrett is a player who has the potential to be terrific in this league.
