Lorcan Fitzgerald departs Bray with 6 games of the season to go,I presume he was the interim first team manager after Ian Ryan left but I’m not sure it was ever announced,Bray as strange as ever anyway!!!
17 year old Luke O'Donnell has signed for Wolves from ourselves for an "initial six-figure sum".
For someone who has only played two minutes of senior football, it seems a lot.

Bohs have just extended the contracts of James Clark & Kasper Chorazka. Great news, and doing business early. Well done to all involved.
What’s the story with Clarke this year? Seems to have had a very big drop off in performances compared to last year. To the point that he’s even struggled to nail down a spot in the starting 11 since Tierney and Devoy have returned. Was there a change in position or anything like that that resulted in the drop in performances this season? Still a very talented young player and defo worth signing back up
Yeah I'm surprised to see Clarke staying. Have seen a lot of Bohs fans bemoaning the fact he hasn't been getting much of a chance in recent months so I figured he'd be off.
He hasn't been as consistent, simple as that really. McDonnell has probably been our best player this season week in, week out and after bringing back Devoy and Tierney you have to play them. Clarke is the odd man out in that situation, although Reynolds has tried him as a striker recently and it's works alright in some games and not so well in others. I'm also a bit surprised he signed a new deal but if we want to improve next season we need some quality squad depth.
I think it's important to note he's been out best player in terms of consistency. On a week to week basis he's probably never our best player on the pitch but he does so much dirty work in terms of tracking back, tackling, going box to box for the full 90 that his performances are never below a 6-6.5 out of 10. In a season where we've had players be game changers one week and anonymous or worse the next that consistency is very valuable.
Yes, exactly that.

Will this be the end of transfer fees? How will this affect the LOI? Clubs investing in academies to sell the best players will need a new business plan.
