Doe's anyone know if Pat Jennings and David McDaid are heading back to Derry ?
Jennings is out of contract and very unlikely to be offered a new deal with us.
Their loan deals are up so yes. McDaid would be willing to come back if another deal was agreed.Quote:

Hard to know, can't see him getting too many appearances with Derry just yet. Can't see them being too against it if Rovers were interested in bringing him back next season.Quote:

Dundalk Job has been advertised in Loacl Papers out tonight apparently.
Hey no fair, Leave us out of it:)Quote:

That Dundalk news is a huge surprise, feel a little sorry for Gill. Only a little though.
I can't believe all of that story on extratime.ie. Surely the board would know better than to go back on an agreement about a bonus for winning the league.. You might as well tell all the players to feck off that they're not wanted next season.Quote:

That is unbelievable. Terrible form from the board and someone needs to get it through to them that they are not the football club and cannot run it into the ground for the benifit of their ego'sQuote:

That article appears to be leaning towards a certain agenda. The article does not say a bonus had been agreed with the players beforehand therefore I would fully support DFC in not handing one out. Did the players hand the club money when they played crap and finished mud table a few years ago? Did they f**k!
Obviously it's surprising that Gill would depart, but the duty of the board of Dundalk is to put the best manager possible in place for next season, and Gill's contract is up after all. Dundalk are being ruthless for sure, but it remains to be seen what the result will be.
Celtic interested in Fahey and Shelley and Zayed playing a trial game for Hamilton according to the Indo;

Gill is not gone yet...at least 2 news papers interviewed him at some stage yesterday.
And its safe to say all Dundalk players are available if rumours are true...none will sign a new contract after this treatment of Gill!!therefore all are available except shane grimes who ahys a 2 year contract....GOD HELP US ALL!!!!
As I said already, I'm not convinced by that article on extratime.ie.. It is important that a manager is appointed soon though before our better players are offered deals elsewhere.
What a load of crap. Players are going to turn down a chance to play in the premier league with a club that is financially stable (for now)??Quote:

I'd also agree 100% with MrA that that article seems to be written with somebody with a certain agenda. Seems very anti dundalk.
I swear to god it had nothing to do with me. Havent even the time to read it!
:mad:Well at the moment who bloody knows what to believe...all i can say is that its turned us into the bloody laughing stock of the league!
Ive heard both Shane Tracy (Galway United) and Brian O Callaghan (ex-Cork City) are on their way to Limerick.
Only rumours though.
Both players would be a huge boost. What we saw of Tracey last season looked really promising.With both Galway and Cork cutting their cloth these sound like a reasonable rumour!
DO NOT SIGN BRIAN O CALLAGHAN.Quote:

I may be wrong, but didn't he do well over in England with Barnsley and Notts County. Must be decent enough. I heard both Cobh and Galway were also interested in him.Quote:

No, no he's not decent.Quote:

have fun in the first division for a few years
I'll be honest with ya... i'd much prefer to have Shels fans in the Carlisle next season rather than the bunch of Dundalk fans we had down for the cup match this season... The main bunch were some of the worst i've come across.Quote:

have a question are the player of the year awards organised by club or a supporters club? bad form from players not to show up and thank fans especially if organised by a supporters club. know been treated badly if what in article true but surely another way to protest rather than letting fans down
Fixed that for you. :)Quote:

Speaking of Shels, I heard Freeman could be on his way back to Longford.
I'd doubt that for numerous reasons.
