Everyone on our board is pretty much resigned to losing him to you.

Maby Collins was on his way back from an interview in Derry then so......:p
No word of a new man at Harps yet.

Is that Crawley as in the ex Shels full back whose only ability was to hoof the ball into orbit? Washe with Shels this year, or did he go somewhere in between?

One of the papers today - quoted on the Shels forum - said Ollie Cahill has done a medical at Drogheda but will leave any decision on signing until after he comes back from holidays.

Fenlon to Rovers according to todays Indo, on the back of a substantial investment from Umbro boss John Courteney. With Scully to take the Shels job.

Apparently Pat won't move up to Derry. Hopefully our board don't back down on this one, I'd rather have a less able manager who is living in Derry and training the team daily that someone who is trying to do it from 150 miles away.

Unproven at this stage. Also hasn't endeared himself with his constant anti-Derry position on EL Weekly.

But then again Fenlon was public enemy no 1 for us until last week.

As someone else said, you have to be very fickle to be a football supporter these days!

Eleven-a-side is bursting with rumours of players leaving Shels - Colin Hawkins to Dunfermline, Ollie Cahill and Stuart Byrne to Drogheda, Richie Baker to Motherwell, Glen Crowe and Owen Heary to Bohs, Jason Byrne to Dundee United, Jim Crawford to retire and move into coaching and the out of contract players to possibly move on - Steve Williams, Dean Delaney, Dave Rogers (linked with Bohs on the Shels forum), Joey Ndo and Gary O'Neill. Dave Tyrrell and Dave Crawley are already gone. Not looking good down Tolka Park way; you'd have to say they'd be doing well to qualify for Europe with what's left, assuming obviously that the funds aren't there to bring in suitable replacements.

One would assume that players will be reluctant to sign for them in the future with the publicity of the payment issues and anecdotal accounts from ex-Shels players and staff. Who knows though? Ollie has pulled a few surprises in his time. I'd still say only 50% of that exodus will happen at a maximum.

For the league's perspective it is worrying that Shels are to offload/lose most of their squad. Will somebady think of the coefficient!.

Scully unproven? Christ, you lot have an over-inflated sense of yourselves. :rolleyes:

As for John Courteney, he cannot invest in Rovers without the say so of the membership. End of.

Unproven! He won a league title in two attempts one more than your
beloved SK. You must be watching a different EL Weekly to me because
everytime he was on he was positive about Derry.
Just because he said Shels would win the league and was right
