I think the fee is officially undisclosed, but it's around about £500k. Scunthorpe had a £650,000 bid accepted (Sammo turned it down) and Derby had a £425,000 bid rejected. So somewhere in between is where I'd say it ended up.

I didn't suggest Derry would profit. I'm just thinking the money would (presumably) go to clearing Wellvan's debts. Which, would, of course, help the current Derry City (if only in perception etc)
It'd be horrifying to think that nobody in football gained from the sell on fee
Thinking Shane Dempsey (Wexford) could be signing with Waterford United within the next few days.
Article here on transfer news pre-season
Couple of trialists played for us last Friday against FAI/FAS team as confirmed on dundalkfc.com: Ryan Brennan(Drogheda), Gareth Whelan(Shels) and Stephen Last(Cardiff City)
They tend to do that this time of year!!!!
Any news on where Killian Brennan will be playing next season?
i heard rumours of talks with Sligo.
Gareth Whelan is training with us and played against Cliftonville tonight
How much did Bohs get for Madden?
I've heard its far less than that. 60k was the fee. Carlisle don't usually spend six figure sums on ANYONE, let alone unproven irish lads
Ken Oman to Shamrock Rovers is the word from a well informed source at Dundalk Fans Forum tonight
I recall Aidan fitzmaurice mentioned 100 K was figure agreed for Madden in Herald last weekend (so it must be true :) ) 100 K was the figure Celtic offered (and was accepted) earlier before deal broke down due to lack of agreement on personal terms. Rumour on Bohs forum that Oman has signed for Fingal.
Ger Hanley has re-signed for Mervue for another year.Had a trial with St.Johnstone along with 2 other LOI players but none were signed up.
Still signing players they can't pay??????????Quote:

Did you miss the bit where it says Rumour? On the same forum it says he signed for Rovers.
Yes I did. And I also saw the sequence in which they were posted! Both rumours I'm aware. But have you not also signed other players this week? Surely this financial backing was secured before starting to spend it????
Bobby Ryan to Fingal from what I hear,
Has Ger Rowe joined Drogheda? Wikipedia has it down as such but obviously it not being the most amazing source, and Drogheda being in turmoil points to the opposite.
I'd probably be happy enough with him as a signing.
