Personally don't think either club could afford him. If Jayo is valued at 750k (or there abouts), Eamo is easily worth 300k. Lets see either of those sides throw that kind of money on the table.:cool:

As i said in the transfer discussion thread, another rag already said ye were looking for 50k.
Don't know how either side could say no to that.
Another (probably unfounded but more believable) rumour is that Bray want 100k and neither Drogs nor City are willing to pay because he would be free in July(true?).
Haven't heard anyone yet deny his contracts up in July. Is that true?
Might be best to get rid then so as to get a few bob.
a player who didnt make it at crewe or a relegated Norwiegan outfit?Quote:

Zayed is unproven at anything other than lower Premier division.
Drogs would probably pay more money but if he has any ambitions for future career CCFC is the only options with CL exposure working under the best manager in the league.
Sorry dont agree with ya there, Zayed has proven himself for the past 3 seasons scoring goals, he played half a season for us last year, and scored 12 goals with what most of you would say is an average side. That was more than John O'Flynn, Georgie Boy, Kearney, O'Donavan and Fenn.Quote:

But at the end of the day if any club in the eL wants to buy him they would probably have to break the record to sign him.....
Two things i thought it wasn't possible for Zayed to finish his degree if he moved to Shels???Quote:

All according to your goodself in a previous post on this topic??
Did a bit of research there and i wouldn't be optimistic about City signing him now.
Even if his contracts up in June/July the worst situation for Bray would be identical to Kearneys situation atm. Under 23 on 1 Jan.
Thats unless the tribunal decides his spells in Crewe and Norway constituted leaving the club.
Complicated.
Think the summer rather than now might be when we see things happen either way when he's finished college.
I thought you said he could do it part time or did you forget saying that ? thats why i said Shels.... and if you noticed the IF in bold........Quote:

No didn't forget i brought it up sure and you told me it wouldn't be possible to combine both and also IFS or no IFS when Shels were mentioned you suggested they could go broke now your saying money wise he'd be better off going to Shels as opposed to Cork anyway not getting into it it's just it seems you don't like Cork.Quote:

Look at how long it took Henry to settle at Arsenal! Maybe the 300k is a SLIGHT exageration, but you'd be looking for near enough to that for the best young striker in the league. Would fetch far more than that if he was playing in league 1 or 2 over in England. Just look at Jon Stead for example. Blackburn payed a million for him from Huddersfield( not 100% sure of the team, more a guess really.) and no one had heard of him. Now he's only scored one goal in the last season and a half. Zayed would get a better return than that in my opinion.Quote:

and how old does he have to be before he stops being young?
Zayed would defo be considered as one of the best young strikers in the league...... why would so many clubs so such an interest in him if he was'nt hot property ?Quote:

this is hilarious. Bearing in mind the Inter club EL transfer record is 30kyou reckon Zayed is worth 300k
Fair enough he score a few goals in a very poor side, and would be a welcome addition to most teams but lets be realistic of his valuation girls!
lads lets be honest here to say that any el club would pay 300k for eamo is absurd and mental on all your behalf. Personaly i think he is a decent player and roo will tell you that when roomers where stiring last year of him going to rovers i was not too happy. the reasoning i am thinking cork or drogs would go in for him is his youth and the fact that he did score 12 goals, and they would of course feel he would be a squad player rather than a team player. now eamo would not be silly enough to want to move away from a team where he is doming ok to sit on a bench for most of a season and then become a nobody it has happened to so many young talented footballers one example being glen at shels had a great future and then a bad move just didnt work out his way, if he had any sence he would stay with bray for a full season and try socre 12 goals + this season then really set himself up for a big move next year rather than do it now and regret it later in his career ! personlly speaking i think he would be a good 1st div striker. every layer has one good season!!!! true form is consistancy
Personally i feel eL clubs have to get real when selling players to eachother, players are sold far to cheap......Quote:

Yeah our very poor side took points off every team last season, even down in Cork and up in Derry. Zayed IMO opnion would start in most premier division sides, maybe with the execption of Shels were Byrne, Crowe and O'Neill would be a fighting for 2 places, but with the likes of Cork, O'Flynn would be his only threat cause in fairness Fenn hardly sets the world alight with his goal scoring feats.........
On the contrary Fenn is far more solid in his starting position.Quote:

if the top club in the league has a total budget for its entire season at around €1.5m - there is absolutly no hope that the top club (or any lower ones) are ever going to pay €300k on any player.
€100k would be the absolute max i'd imagine any eL side will spend in the near future, but there isn't many Jason Byrnes for sale. another factor is eL clubs don't seem to get players to sign players on long term contracts - therefore the players sell on value is always low. if zayed was on a 5 year contract, then he would deserve a much higher sell on price.
as it is, if he is available for nothing in june or july, i'd rather my club pick him up for free then than pay that money now
Strikers are in the squad to score goals, 4 goals in a league season is a very bad return, soccerbot.com says he did'nt score in his last 14 games.Quote:

Sence??
No not at all, i was making a point........ Good Strikers score more than 4 goals a season and personally I feel Fenn didnt not make a HUGE contribution to Cork last season, now Gamble on the other hand made a huge contribution, O'Flynn made a huge contribution, O'Callaghan made a huge contribution, Danny Murphy made a huge contribution. You couldn't even compare Fenn to the others mentioned in terms contribution.Quote:

Not much good to us since we won't be in Europe for a while.Quote:

If we are really serious about pushing on for a top four finishas the club has indicated they are, we simply cannot see off our best talent on the cheap just to suit other EL clubs. Where's the sence behind that?Quote:

if not, then bray should hold out for better money. (or not sell at all!!)
Far as I Know Zayed and Weso both signed new contracts before going out on loan to the end of this season coming. That's what i've heard and I certainly hope so:eek: .Quote:

But he did.
And as it happens that skill and creativity was the perfect foil for the other attacking 5 players last season..
Whether Eamo is worth 300k or not, no team in the EL will pay that much, according to the paper today Bray will not let him leave for less than a six-figure sum.
One or two mentions of Eamo scoring a lot in a very poor side but it's worth noting that Bray's most sucsessful third of the season in front of goal was the final third, the one that Eamon was missing for all together, just saying.
Good point but he is our most likely player to score. Hopefully this season, as he's signed a new contract, he'll get his head down and play with his heart.Quote:
