Kevin Doyle

It's reported that Blackburn are interested in sigining Kevin Doyle with £8m being mentioned! Would Cork and the rest be entitled to any of this??

We're reported to be entitled to 10% of any transfer fee for Kevin Doyle.

10% and Pats get 2% of that i think !?!

Here's the link;

I understood that Pat's entitlements were linked only to the transfer of Doyle from us? Can they have any claim on future transfers, given that the original transfer would not have involved them?

no i believe its in rotation - we get 10% of this transfer you get 2% of our 10%


after all we did teach him all he knows

I dunno, thats the first i heard of it to be honest. It think its fair that it does actually happen though.

If that's the case and lets say Blackburn Rovers buy and sell Doyle, are ourselves and Pat's going to get a cut of that? I very much doubt it.

As he's under 25 we get part of his "development fee". Unless it was written into his transfer deal that Cork get X amount of his future sales, they'd get roughly the same as us as he spent roughly the same amount of time at both clubs.

Still congrats to Dolan for ****ing both of us...

Yeah, i think thats how it works in theory, again i'm not 100% on that now but thats the way its meant to pan out.

In the Star on Sunday, Doyler said he'd spent time on the bench at Pat's so he knows what it's like to be on the lowest rung of the ladder. :D

That guy is like the plague, who needs enemies if you have friends like this. He is a cretin of the highest order. The gods were definitely against us when they sent us him.

wasnt good enough for first team - still probably wouldnt make it a t pats today

really begs the question how many more pats players would probably prosper in the premiership

I make it 8 that would easily walk into any top half prem team - with Dara good enuff to replace Hartley at Hearts - or is it Presley at Paisley?

What talent is wasting away on your bench these days?

St Pats "missing talent since 1990..." :D

Can't understand all this Dolan bashing. Whether it's true or not that the transfers had anything to do with him I don't know but at the end of the day it is Kevin Doyle that benefits. He has enhanced his career to the point where he is an automatic choice for his national side. If Cork agreed to a clause in his contract that he could be bought for such a small amount of money they that's their own tough luck. If Dolan had anything to do with the transfer then so what. What did Lennox expect when he sacked him! Neverending loyalty.

Dolan received a substancial payoff when he was sacked. There were confidentiality conditions as part of that which I think would encompass such things as disclosing confidential contract clauses.

the point is that it isn't only Doyle that benefits and it is only Pats and Cork that don't/didn't. When manager of Pats, Dolan told Doyle NOT to sign professional forms. Doyle had agreed to with the club. 2 months later Dolan signed him for Cork and Pats got nothing. 3 and bit years later and he's getting sold for 8 million.

But you're right we've no basis for being annoyed...

yeah but aint that standard penny pinching from dolan?

amateur forms - like soccy = less wages

No, this was his 2nd contract. The one he agreed to before joining Cork. Oh and most of that team weren't on penny pinching money

they werent on great money tho - we'd the likes of robbie griffen gettin a game
it was the registration season - most were journeymen spurred on by the motivational talk of the greatest manger in living memory
