Duff injured himself pretty badly in this game and may miss the rest of the A League season which will be a great pity. Probably, the next time he plays is in the LOI.

At least he managed to get out of the rat race that is London for a break. His words. The rat race! LOL
Interview on Soccer Republic tonight where he reiterated his desire to play League of Ireland football and will be back in Ireland April/May. Likely to sign for one of the top clubs one would assume.
He said he'd be back in the summer, but with an injury like that I'd say he'll be out for a good while. He'll be a free agent so could sign for anyone after that, especially if a club goes far in Europe.
Yes he said he has been reading up on the league he has always wanted to finish his career in.
As a Ballyboden man, would Cabinteely be his most local side? Or did he support someone as a youngster? Richie Sadlier also played with Leicester Celtic as a kid and he's been involved with St. Pat's. See also Brian Kerr.
Ballyboden is three minutes from Tallaght. It'd be closer to Inchicore too than Cabinteely. He's apparently going to live in Bray when he retires so presumably Bray will be his local team, or Manchester United going by the number of jerseys you see around there.

Hi all, we have an event today in Melbourne with The Ireland Fund.
Duff is one of the speaker guests.
Anyone have any questions they would like to be asked?
Bohs or Bray, Damo?
Ask him if he has Keith Fahey's phone number :D
Will ask him regards any update on his future.
I'll record as many questions as possible and post here
unsure if posted already, but duffer was released by melbourne.

Does he fancy one last European campaign I wonder? :)
About to be unveiled by Shamrock Rovers according to reports
http://www.independent.ie/sport/socc...-31353600.html
Assuming they can afford it (€2500 a week? is that believable?), then a great move for the League.
7 Irish caps in the league if he does sign (Duff, Fahey, McPhail, Healy, Miller, Bennett, Byrne)
I read a report earlier that it was nearer to €1000 per week.Quote:

You;d have to imagine if Rovers went to the New Balance/Warrior, Pepper and the Maldron and informed they needed 25k for 5 months to have one of Ireland's greatest players to wear kit emblazoned with their logo, that it would be appealing.
One thing is for sure as much as he loves the game he won't be playing for free.
