Always investors who were "going to" take over an English club too. Until they actually have to come up with money. History is repeating itself quicker than I expected. Papers are full of land deals and dodgy politicians, and Roddy has investors lined up.

Let's see about finishing outside the reelection places first, eh?

Roddy has also persuaded Destiny`s Child to re-form and do the half time entertainment.

Don't think so. He was out of contract when he moved on from us. There was interest from Scotland and England at the time so there was no need for him to sign any contract with us as he knew he had options.

McEleney is out of contract too.

Doyle was 23 when he signed with Hibs so if he was offered a contract by sligo on the same/improved terms, Hibs would have had to pay the compensation fee

Sligo certainly thought that they were entitled to compensation

Hibernian sign up striker Eoin Doyle

Hibernian have signed striker Eoin Doyle on a contract to the end of the 2012/13 season.
The 23-year-old arrives from Sligo Rovers and scored 25 goals for the League of Ireland outfit last term.
Doyle, who has had spells at Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers, will not be eligible to play until the transfer window opens in January.
A spokesman for Sligo Rovers told BBC Scotland on Wednesday that they would be seeking compensation.
Keith O'Dwyer said: "He is under 24 and we would seek clarification from the FAI and Uefa about the need to pay a training and development fee."

Apparently this group wanted to take over at Shrewsbury but Roddy convinced them to come meet with the him and the board at Waterford and meetings have been going extremely well. A few new local business men involved as well, Michael Garland been one of the main guys involved (marketing wiz)

Couple of players been bandied about as well, although I'd imagine some of them wont materialise, but names been mentioned that I'm certain will sign are Roddy Jr, Kevin Burns, Philly Gorman, and the message I received had the name Willo Flood, which I know has to be a mistake, so I'm making an assumption it was meant to be Willo McDonagh or Anto Flood, and I'd be 99% sure its McDonagh as he was training at the end of last season.

Coupled with getting Aaron O Callaghan in as a coach its looking to be very postive for us, and at least we may be back to competing next year after a woeful 2 years.

Although, this is all just rumours at the moments so my hopes are not to high until its all confirmed Wednesday.

I'd be very cautious about anyone Roddy Collins is associated with, he always looks after himself first and foremost.

It didn't really work pout for him in England. League 2 is not an easy division.

It's getting hard to keep up with the comings and goings at the Cross and Inchicore- the Twitter machine suggests the Dennehy bring the number of new arrivals at Pats up to 8. Anyone able to summarise for someone too busy/lazy to Google it all?

Hold on a minute......Rovers are going to pay us �15,000 for Shaw. Are they sure it's the right person? I hope when it does go through that the men in charge in Tallaght don't get a shock when Gary actually walks through the door!
09/12/2015, 5:47 PM

Would be shocked if Rovers paid the full amount. It'd suit neither party not to come to a compromise.
09/12/2015, 6:14 PM

Depends what the full amount is. I'm not sure how it's calculated but he's been with us for five seasons. 15k could be the compromise figure.

I think I read in the Star a seasons salary resulting in the 15k. I could be wrong on that cos to think of Shaw been worth 15k is a joke and to think he was getting 15k a season out of us is an even bigger joke. But if true he was robbing the club for the 5 years he was with us. I would like to see his total appearances and goals scored. For a striker I'm thinking it looks very poor. I always thought he was your typical contract player.

€375 a week for 40 weeks = €15k, not that outrageous really.
09/12/2015, 7:43 PM
De Town

He's not on that much. I think the fee factors in how many years the player has spent at a club too, amongst other things. 15k is a great deal though.

It is outrageous if you're paying Gary Shaw €375 a week!
