David o Leary?

I would think so.
Is he not gone to Norway so Aaron?
Would be surprised to see him move all the way up to Derry to be honest. He is a young lad and his family travel to all his games home and away. It would be a big move for him to suddenly move to the other side of the country. I think he is in College also but I could be wrong.
DundalkFC chairman Ciaran Bond speaking to local Dundalk journo Gav McLaughlin RE Griffin and proposed move to Derry
Gav also tweetedQuote:
Bond on Griffin: “If Derry are serious about signing him they will come up with the money we're looking for. It's not megabucks.

Gavin McLaughlin @McLaughlinGavin
Former @DundalkFC striker Marc Griffin has attracted interest from Chesterfield and Newport County. Derry unwilling to pay compensation fee
Yes both Griffin and O'Leary currently training with us
O'Leary also requires compensation payment, it's why he's not signing for us. Presumably Derry are prepared to pay compo for both of these guys?
What would the compensation be though. I have heard 20k being mentioned. Surely less than that no? Didn't Fingal pay 10k for Finn a few years ago.
When was he training with ye because yesterday he was in a hotel in Dublin waiting to go to Oslo tomorrow according to him.
Yeah, I heard O'Leary was off with the PFAI last night. Why would he if he found a club?
Earning in the region of €5000 according to this article.

Although I did hear the club were trying to get in touch with him. No chance would he be accepting anything under the wages at his last club.
From what I've heard, McMillan won't be coming. He has offers from Sligo and Shamrock Rovers. Unless he gets offered silly money, he'll be at 1 of those 2 clubs this season.
Ya not a hope of getting Zayed. As for McMillan is concerned, I suppose it will come down to how much more we need him than Sligo and Shamrock Rovers when it comes to money. In my opinion a young quality centre back is a priority so the club may be willing to spend a little more on wages to get him than other clubs and take the hit wages wise elsewhere.
Kieron Dyer released by QPR today. Cracking singing for any LOI side looking for an injury prone 34 year old has been.
I had understood that Mc Millan to Shams was a done deal until the Hibs flirtation arose. That was also before Mc Guinness and Oman had signed up. I wouldn`t see Evan displacing either of those and Shams already have their beanpole option up front. Sligo would be a great move given that they have a stable squad from last season and he can slot into the vacancy left by Mc Guinness, but its a pain in the ass to commute to. Limerick is about 45 minutes closer of a commute, but is unknown football territory in every sense of the word.
Dylan Mernagh linked with Limerick in the Mirror apparently.
Rings a bell, ex Waterford player?
It's kinda mad to see players linked with Limerick (or any club with a newly appointed manager), surely Stuart Taylor is going to take a week or so to bed in, access Limerick's squad from last year (2 good Limerick players on the PFAI team heading to Oslo) and commence signing players.
Would be helpful if Stuart Taylor got an assistant in with LOI experience like Croly at Rovers with Michael O'Neill and Gerry Carr at Sligo with Ian Baraclough.
As far as we know Stuart Taylor has Mike Kerley as assistant manager and Tommy Barrett as coach. Both of whom have been around the league a while and know what a lot of the players around are like. Kieran Judge is usually involved in the signing of players also as he is the General Manager of the club so he would most likely also be involved in making contact with last seasons players and potential new signings.
Mernagh could be a good signing. He looked fairly solid against us the 4 times and played left full once or twice. A position we could do with streghtening even if Shane Tracey re-signs.
The likes of O'Leary gone on the PFAI have offers from the club since the end of last season but he was supposed to be waiting to see who the manager was before deciding his future.
