Any news of Keith getting himself a club?

**Dodge** · 05/09/2013, 1:29 PM

He's injured so can't train. he start running last week.

Apparently he's had a couple of offers from Championship clubs and one from outside Ireland/UK but all depends on his recovery

Would be good to see him move outside the UK. Preferably to Tallaght.

Forget Tallaght. I hear Landon United play a good passing game that might suit him

Would it be an option for him to sign for the final 7 games of the League of Ireland season to regain a bit of match fitness? He surely could sign a contract until November and then head over to England?

**Charlie Darwin** · 05/09/2013, 10:16 PM

As far as I understand it, he's a free agent (unlike Liam Kearney) and can sign for anyone he likes. If he was fit and signed for a LOI side, he'd be paid for two months and then have to spend two more months on the sidelines, whereas with an English club he'd be free to play right away. I don't see why it would make sense for him to sign for an LOI club unless he absolutely had to.

Would he not be able to sign up till the end of November then become a free agent again?

Well he's not fit so he wouldn't be playing for anyone. None of the teams challenging could afford to take the risk that he wasn't fit, and he's not going to line out for someone just for fun in midtable.

There's no real reason for him or the clubs

Fahey was at the Sheffield United game last night, and is rumoured to be signing for them soon

It's a bit smaller than a big assist

Fahey's future still uncertain: http://www.goal.com/en-ie/news/3942/...-ireland-place

Keith Fahey's future remains shrouded in doubt as Sheffield United manager Nigel Clough admitted that the club was still assessing their options regarding the midfielder.

Former Birmingham City midfielder Fahey has been without a club since his release from the Blues in the summer and he has been training with the Blades in recent weeks.

"There is no doubting his quality, you can see it in training, he just need to get his fitness up. In terms of his ability on the ball, he is a very good player," Clough told Radio Sheffield.

"We have had a chat with him. There is no point in him being here if there wasn't something at the end of it. We will assess it over the next few weeks."

**Charlie Darwin** · 14/11/2013, 10:30 PM

I assume that means Fahey is waiting until January to decide what to do.

**nigel-harps1954** · 14/11/2013, 11:00 PM

I've heard he'll be signing for St Pat's next season. Albeit an unreliable source, but considering the fact he's now over 30 and has been out for over a whole year, combined with Pat's playing Champions league next season, it wouldn't be completely out of the question.
