    Doubt it to be honest...don't think he's traps sort of player!He's similar to andy reid in that he's an attacking midfielder and if a proven midfielder like reid has no place in traps plans where does that leave fahey?

    More like Steven Reid than Andy Reid IMO. He's fit and gets up and down the pitch as well as being creative. Needs to move up a gear before getting picked though.

    I am really hoping he does well. I hope to god he isn't a one goal wonder. He has been around the block now, matured a bit and has a great opportunity to progress. And if he does it all reflects well on the LOI and it would be getting us closer to commanding proper money for player we are investing in and developing.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    While I hope & expect Fahey to do well I think it is a fair price for him coming out of Ireland. There has been Kevin Doyle, how many other players have been under-valued when sold to England based on form shown in our league, Alan Bennett? Roy O'Donovan? Dave Mooney?

    The only one i can think of is Daryl Murphy but McCarthy signed Michael Kightly for 20k so I do not feel it was exploitation of the LOI just an example of McCarthy's best quality, signing unknowns & getting the best out of them


    The truth is we are at best a league 1 standard & considered as much therefore not too many sides will be willing to pay more than 600k for a player who has not done anything in the top 2 divisions in England

    Best of luck to him. Lit up the 08 season with his play, which was a pleasure to watch (most of the time ).
