Take Liam Burns as an example - Ian Foster is on record as saying that he had offered him the same terms as last year, which Burns did not accept. Now it appears as though he will sign on for cash-strapped Bohs for a reduced wage of €500 a week!!!
I would be amazed if the Bohs fans speculation about Shaun Williams and Ronan Finn is anything other then bizarre delusion, but when you consider the potential players that are mentioned on the Bohs fourm the mind boggles:
B Murphy
G O'Brien
A Price
L Burns
L Fitzgerald
S Williams
R Bayly
R Finn
S O'Connor
A Flood
C Fagan
C O'Connor,
M Rossiter,
O Heary,
G Cronin,
S Byrne,
G Crowe,
The FAI and the Bohs board have more sense then sanctioning the sort of budget that this would need. Don't they???
burns baby burns...
Is this a rumour of a potential wealthy backer?Quote:

youre the one who needs sanctioning if you think we will sign all those players FFS. Cop yourself on. The reason a lot of players havent signed with us is due to the fact that we havent offered enough and/or another team has offered more. Wise up.Quote:

So I take that as a no - the prudent Bohs board will not sanction over-spending?Quote:

S Williams - rumour is a loan deal, wouldnt be big money ad highly unlikely to happen
R Bayly - hasn't set the league on fire the last few seasons but is a confirmed signing afaik. Hardly big money
R Finn - newspaper rumour
S O'Connor - old rumour, haven't heard anything recently
A Flood - unlikely to be big money
C Fagan - unlikely to be big money
C O'Connor, - stuck with
M Rossiter, - unlikely to be big money
O Heary, - stuck with
G Cronin, - stuck with
S Byrne, - guessing the new rules regarding taxback means this wont happen
G Crowe, - not happening
A Hungarian - sounds promising, hopefully small money
Both Rovers have been linked with around 150 players, do you think they will actually sign all of them? I'd expect 5-10 players on up to 500 a week with a lot of last seasons A team making up the rest of the squad.
A loan from who? He's unemployed at the momentQuote:

Just explaining the rumour, no idea if anyone has spoken to anyone else. Think its far more likely that he'll go the Rovers.Quote:

players who were on trial with Bohs, Fenlon offered deals to but subsequently signed deals elsewhere.Quote:

Like who? I thought ye only started looking at signing players in the past week; haven't been too many transfers confirmed in the past week.Quote:

But like who?
Cronin is injured so we're keeping him, PFAI pushed for it afaik but still the right thing to do, Heary has a job as long as Fenlon is there, not fully sure of the story with the 2 keepers, would have preferred to see one or both go.Quote:

that info is available on the Bohs message board. Youre always there so you know where to find it. If not, i think a Rovers fan linked to the relevant thread at some stage over the last few days.Quote:
