Yea Ezec that was my understanding of FAI recognised contracts as well (to seasons end). Presume the arrangement is that the club will release him if the "right" offer comes along :confused: - right decided by him. Seanie is a wheeler dealer and has had some strange contract "arrangements", both written and otherwise, at previous clubs. To be fair it is often the only way to get a player signed.Quote:

Ahh I see.Quote:

More than likely. He is under contract until the end of the season afaiik.Quote:

English defender I mentioned above is 20 year old Mark Dudley who's just been released by Derby. Played on loan at a couple of non league outfits last year
Heard a rumor a few weeks ago he was leaving. I wonder if he'll be joining us? Bit odd for someone to leave mid-season to join nobody espcially if he was club captain!Quote:

Would be slightly disappointed for Purcell. I certainly think he could have made the jump to League One.
He's a great little performer for me in Football Manager. Would be a very good addition to the league too - very experienced player.Quote:

breaking news is that Keith Gillespie ( ex glentoran, Sheff Utd,Newcastle UTD) is in talks with Dundalk for a possible move. If this is the case it will be some move!
Don't think he did much for Glens last year so I don't know how much use he'd be to Dundalk
Was very average for Glens anytime I seen him.Quote:

Saw him play for Glens against Bohs in the SETANTA, did nothing of note and looked way past best. To be fair he had only joined them shortly before and may have been match "rusty" but could not see him adding much to Dundalk.Quote:

Not too sure about this from that blog.
Yeah if he was signing 15 years ago maybe. As it is it's about level with Rod's stellar signings of Carlton Palmer and Efan Ekoku.
Complete and utter crap and says more about the author than the story - "OOOOOOh a former premiership player coming to Ireland oooohh how exciting, must see him, is Dundalks ground near Dalymount ?" ;)Quote:
