Read on Aertel that the fee was around 25,000:eek: Surely they'd be nuts to let him go for that? Gary O'Neill is worth twice that nevermind Weso...

Also, anyone else a mite suspicious that Shels' most valuable assets are seemingly bound for foreign shores after a season in which the clubs' visibility around Europe was infinitely lower than the level attained in 2004? Two improbable, speculative bids for the clubs' top players within a fortnight? Or has someone within Shelbourne been alerting clubs to their availability for financial reasons?
I dont think it would be a good move for wes. Livingston are going nowhere and Shels imo are definetly a better team. having said that were the likes of aberdeen or motherwell were to come in for him it would be a good move.
Sorry for going off topic but i think people read too much into the kevin doyle transfer yes he has been a success and fair play to him but there have been many poor transfers with loi players like colin hawkins,trevor molloy,darren kelly and brian shelly who is back playing in the premier division after being released by carlisle while they were in the conference. also the league of ireland internal transfer record is only something like 60000 so you cant expect foreign clubs to pay 10 times this for our players.
i am a livi fan and if wes is as good as use all say i would love him to come to us but if he becomes a success he will be sold for £1 million to one of the two big clubs i.e. Rangers and Celtic they do that with all the good wee players that scottish teams have the buy the league
as he is an attacking midfielder in my opinion thats what livi need expessially is we are trying to get agathe from celtic on loan if he some he will be attacking right mid and wes att left mid with brittian and vincze in midfield and he is ment to have a great cross and goes past players for fun
i cant wait to see him in the colours of yellow and black
Agreed, it would be a sad day for the league not just Shels.Quote:

Livingston will turn their attention to Gillingham striker Steve Hislop should they complete the £100,000 signing of Shelbourne winger Wesley Hoolahan.
A Livi spokesman said: "We are still talking with Shelbourne over Wesley, but nothing is imminent and no deadline has been set.
£100,000 signing of Shelbourne winger Wesley Hoolahan.
:rolleyes: :mad: :mad:
That's a joke, this is an embarresment of a fee for an outstanding skillful player!!

News Update.
I guess we'll have to disband the league so...:(
Undisclosed fee .... i hope that it turns out to be half decent, i do have faith in Shels to ask a proper price ... just hope it is not misplaced.Quote:

One thing about all of this is that player now can see the possiblies when signing for an eL club so clubs have more leighway when getting them to sign contracts. It is in their interest to demand more from the players in the contracts.
reality check. the transfer is dependent on what the player earns and whats left on his contract.
from a personal point of view it is a great move for wesso. he was going nowhere fast at shels and his ambition is obviously to play at a higher level than the EL. first serious transfer offer for wes coincides with shels being desperate for cash.
if anyone thinks that a move to the SPL is a bad one for an EL player they need to stop looking through those tinted glasses.
at a league wide level its a pity shels dont appear to have the ambition to hang onto any of their 'stars' at the moment.
Roverstillidie, how do you know we didn't try to hang onto them. You will find Wes is very welcome to stay with Shels.
crowe, byrne and now wes all touted for sale? thats not a policy?Quote:

Rubbish. Wes has a certain period of time on his contract left. If he was resolute in leaving, you get a fee for him rather than lose him to a free transfer. Thats Wes.
Jason has gone no where yet and once again same as above applies.
Crowe is going no where and I'd expect better than you believing tabloid rumour!!! As for 10 players released? eh who? We released some players that were on loan and surplus to requirement.
so basically your post is utter drivel :) And next time I see you, don't kill me :) hehe
so its not because you are broke and are getting the high earners off your books and signalling the end of your 'galactacos' policy?Quote:

Slaps I can handle, digs probably not :) You seen me I'm a small fry :) the bohs lads could take me sure :)
Farewell Wes, I'm devestated but life goes on. God I hate the state this league is in at the moment, when one of our best young talent leaves for a Scottish relegation battle for next to peanuts.
Its very similar to the Doyle situation (minus "the clause") but Reading are a better club than Livingston ever will be.
Oh lord, I'm depressed.
Ok, I haven't really been following this thread so is this move definitely going ahead?:confused: If so, for how much?
:D sure your chums in the SSC will help you handle those bohs *******....Quote:

It's disgraceful that the EL is losing such a talent to a crap club in the SPL, especially for that figure. This has got to be sorted out ASAP:mad:.Quote:

It seems to be stalling or on hold at the moment, but its around 400k I think. Possibly a bit more. If it goes through that is.
What about £100k with a few clauses thrown in? :mad:Quote:

I suspect Mr. Revenue Commissioner will be relieving Shels of the whole of that £100k early in the New Year.Quote:

Terms will be agreed, of that I have no doubt. Best of luck to Wesley, and I hope to one day see him in the green of Ireland, and fingers crossed back in Shelbourne red.
He was never in England before, IIRC been at Shels since 15, the quote wherever it is should read that he wants to give it a try, not one more try.
Come 'ere... seeing as Shels are offloading all these players ... where is Ndo going ?? He is welcome leeside anytime he wants (as long as he runs out for city like) !! :p
Ollie's life will be on the line if we lose Wes Jayo and Ndo! :DQuote:

The sooner we can sell players for respectable sums of money the better. We have given too many top players away this season for peanuts.
€140,000!:o
You would have been better keeping him for the season.
You sad git, there is no such thing as the SSC!!! (Unless you're talking about the Shelbourne Supporters Club!)Quote:
