First you have to find someone willing to pay 500K, euro, sterling, dollars or yen for Seamie, then he is worth it. So far you haven't found anybody willing to pay anything for him, so he's worth nothing.
GUFC on the other hand have found a club willing to pay £400k sterling for O'Shea, so that is what he is worth. Great business by Nick & GUFC.

:DGood old Nick....always a penchant for wheeling and dealing has our Nick!!
£320k or £400k - either way its good business for Galway - €500 for a young guy who is only beginning to prove himself.
(should be good business for Derby too if he continues to show the promise he has been - hope Galway get a good sell-on clause in the contract!)
:ball:
Rumour in Dundalk is that gill is been let go and that doolin ..yes doolin...is been lined up as his replacement taking with him some of the drogheda players who are out of contract:eek:
Hey GUFCT...O'Shea was going to Dalymount , agreed to do so until Bohs went wallop and then Derby came in with an offer....put that in your pipe and smoke it!...........;)
The job is being advertised tomorrow (Where do they advertise these things?). Gill will have to reapply, and I'm led to believe he will, and will be interviewed like every other candidate.
You're screwed.Quote:

Maybe as a one-year appointment to get access to the Drogheda players, it'd be worth it. Otherwise, bad call.
Dundalk board are a joke if they let a championship winning manager go
Yeah but how many times did he blow the chance for promotion before this season?
Given the budget Gill has been handed season after season I personally think they should have been a premier side long before this.
There will be no want for candidates for this job imo. Scully, Reynolds, Collins, Doolin, Gill and many more will eyeing the job imo. Maybe Rico could be interested? Fat Pat if given the right money?
Dundalk are a massive club and any decent manager out of work will be in for the job (maybe even some not out of work)
Long before this? He won it on the field two years ago in his first season at the club but we all know what happened then. Hardly anything Gill could do about that. Last year, fair enough, was bad, but we've come back this year and won it. We got a bit of luck in the end but the table never lies.
Two promotions in three years is a fair record for a division which is incredibly difficult to get out of. And for the record, we had in or around the same budget as Shels this year. Fingal had the biggest and look where they finished.
A poster on OrielWeb has said that it has been announced on LMFM that Gill hasn't been given a new contract and the job will be advertised..
Pal of mine who works with me follows Dundalk and said Gill had a budget of 7000 ....
euros a day and still only managed promotion with the last kick of the season!:D
