Terrible move for him football wise. He's now going to be stuck in the A league and City 21's for the next 2 seasons. No way is he getting a sniff ahead of Georgie, John O'Flynn, or Denis Behan for that matter. In my book he should have stayed where he was for another season, and enhanced his reputation in the First Division. Lets not forget he did only score 3 goals from play last season(and a few pens thrown in), what with and all the hype and all, and he really needs to improve on that to be anywhere near the finished article.
He's a good lad with great talent and a bright future. I wish him well, but feel he's made a bad move.
a bad move?at least he will get paid on time there:DQuote:

you obviously cant read and he got paid by the blues u tard! While i wish John well i too think he is making a big mistake. He isnt leaving Limeick over some gripe, hes leaving Limerick cos he doesnt like his college course in LIT, and hes playing semi pro in Limerick. In cork he can go onto their colaiste course and play "a" and under 21. Of course he is joining an under 21 set up which has never EVER beaten a limerick under 21 team. While the senior set up maybe more establised, their under 21 (which he will now be joining) is very much second divisionQuote:

you need to check the history books gael,cork 21s have beaten lims 21s.tierney does,n like his LIT course....thats the official line......tierney is like any younster with real ambition,and wants to futher his career,he was dying to get away from lims 37.....lims preseason has been a farce and players like tierney are hardly going to be impressed by that and by the many promises he was made.also maybe you should ask the present manager what kind of effort he made to keep him.Quote:

I know of one limerick player who went down to go "pro" several years ago, weekly money in his lamh??? €80!!!! if thats going pro then im happy staking shelves and playing junior ball at weekends.
yea his coach is Ski.....nuff saidQuote:

I can't see him making a big splash with CCFC in the short term but of course it was the right move for him to make if he's got real ambition. Can't understand why anybody would gripe about it, personally I'd be surprised if he really comes through but at least he's giving it a chance.
i think you could be right, one nil in rathbane 3 years ago???Quote:

If as you say, that Tierney was dying to get away from Limerick, what manager worth his salt would bother his arse asking him to stay??Quote:

I'd imagine his contract was breached at some stage last season.....Quote:

If he is Under 23 someone has to receive compensation as far as I knowQuote:

Thats from UEFA.Quote:
All clubs interested in players 23 and under will have to pay a fee to the clubs who have trained and developed such players. Most players moving from small clubs to bigger clubs do so before they reach the age of 24. In fact smaller clubs may benefit more than bigger clubs under the transfer laws for under 23's. A young player moving to a more successful club will attract a transfer fee and the smaller club will be entitled to a 5% cut of all sell-on transfers involving a player until he retires. The compensation formula will also take account of the training costs associated with players who don't make the grade.
So...how long have we trained him? Didn't we give him his first steps in senior soccer? Why haven't we gotten paid for him....?
Maybe the amount is too piddling for the club to bother pursuing?Quote:

Take your pick I'd say
For a club that is as 'on its knees' as much as we are, then every cent should be fought for.Quote:

Your knowledge of the clubs running last season should allow you to read between the lines on this one Joe ;)
Cork City did NOT pay a fee for John Tierney.
WE KNOW!! ;)Quote:
