Good luck Jay I hope you make it.
Best of luck Jay,hopefully we will see you playing the in premiership in no time.
Good luck Jay!
Does anyone know if Bray had a sell-on clause for him?!
Sacked him didn't ye?. "D'Oh!" springs to mind. I think ye may still get some kind of training compensation, though I'm unsure if that's affected by ye sacking him rather than him leaving.
Poll on MNS site about this.

Will Jay O'Shea make more of an impact than Keith Fahey should his move to Birmingham City go through?
It has gone through.
Good Luck Jay, we'll miss ya. Hope you make it over there
Bray will get some cut of the deal, nothing to do with a sell on clause though. It depends on how long he was with you though. It doesn't look like it will be much though.

Solidarity Payments
If the same move had occurred when the player was in contract, the transfer fee would have been negotiable and 5% of this amount would then have been distributed pro-rata to all clubs involved in his training since the age of 12
Solidarity Contribution - Payment breakdown
- When a professional moves during the course of a contract, 5% of any compensation, with the exception of Training Compensation, paid to his Former Club shall be deducted from the total amount of this compensation and distributed by the New Club as a solidarity contribution to the club(s) involved in his training and education over the years (calculated pro rata if less than one year) he was registered with the relevant club(s) between the Seasons of his 12th and 23rd birthdays, as follows:
- Season of 12th birthday: 5%
- Season of 13th birthday: 5%
- Season of 14th birthday: 5%
- Season of 15th birthday: 5%
- Season of 16th birthday: 10%
- Season of 17th birthday: 10%
- Season of 18h birthday: 10%
- Season of 19th birthday: 10%
- Season of 20th birthday: 10%
- Season of 21st birthday: 10%
- Season of 22nd birthday: 10%
- Season of 23rd birthday: 10%
- Total = 100%
Maybe I just didnt see enough of him but my general impression was that he was over rated.
Definetly talented but to put him in the same bracket as Keith Fahey I think is a little silly.
Anyone know what Galway got. Anything over 100K is good business.
Not close to Fahey IMO
I've heard a lower figure than that.
That makes it closer to €500 Bray will be getting. I was working off the €400k bid Derby reportedly put in for him, stupid assumption really.
a source close to jay says that he will be on the bench for the match in old trafford tomorrow.
I'll be watching Galway Minor Hurlers tomorrow but ill keep an eye on the Man Utd game to see does he play.Would be great to see him get a run.:).
Jay O'Shea is on the bench for Birmingham's match against Man United.
Fair play to him , hope he gets a run out too . Fahey starts anyway
Where else in the world would you be able to source a premiership grade footballer for less than 100k euro?
Its a funny old league where many clubs pay way over the odds in wages/bonuses to mediocre players and yet we have situations like this where talent is flogged to the UK for peanuts.
he wasnt "flogged to the uk" , galways hands were financially tied. That few quid helped to keep the club afloat for another couple of weeks. If we could have got a better deal Im sure we would had gone for it, but that was the best on offer at what was probably our last chance of making a few shillings on the player.
O'Shea has just come on!
He's on.
I think McLiesh gambled putting him on, hoping he'd do something special.
The lads first thing to do was to take on Evra who made him look like a fool, o'shea ended up on his arse, then up again to shoulder him only to fall back down. Then in the last 2mins he got the ball wide and put in a hopeless cross. Other than that nothing much else, he got it the odd time and passed succesfully. Oh he was skint by Giggs on one occasion.
Fahey looked quality on the other hand imo.
Good to see the two lads playing at this level - can only reflect well on our league
Very positive post from a Sligo Fan.
So, to ask again, where in the world can an EPL team pick up a premiership-ready player for less than 100k euro (or even 50k if some other posters are to be believed).
So you overspend and then fire-sale your assets when the inevitable cash crunch occurs. That is simply shockingly bad business.
Delighted for O'Shea by the way - best of luck to him.
His season aint over till May not wise throwing him straight into the deep end.
