He was Marty. In 2008, mostly came off the bench for us, scored one goal Vs. Cobh.wasnt Davy McDaid on loan with Sligo Rovers before???
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Looked a decent enough prospect too any time I saw him play.
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Roy Keane is still a pri*k!
4 great signings to be honest
James decided to stay at home for now despite interest from across the water, Shane has been/ is still being watched by Celtic and others, his brother we know all about and Davy McDaid scored 3 in 3 games towards the end of that mad season of ours
Great news (pending a successful application of course)
Do any of you know what the deal is with Patrick McEleney? Why did he leave Sunderland so early into his career??

Informative article. The truth always comes out in the end and it doesn't look pretty...
Very informative and very honest. Barrett (I'd never heard of him until I read it) comes across very well.
The only worrying thing is what happens when people start to look for glory.
The sun looks like you could fly there, even though we know better.
Maybe now that he has had time to do the interview he will find time to lift the phone to the other Irish League clubs owed money.
Do they know who they owe and how much?
If they have been speaking with the FAI, then yes they should.
DCFC have spoken with Linfield this week already....
Cliftonville raised the 'Celtic money' with the FAI but the Wellvan administrator, when asked about it on Monday night, said that all he knew about this was whatever has been mentioned in the press etc.
This was going by the records he is holding.
It seems to me that the 'Celtic deal' may have been a verbal agreement but I'm sure that something will be sorted.
No it is a written one. Sounds like the Administrator is out of the loop. I am sure the FAI have copied it to or notified the relevant parties.

He really should be in the loop so.
Personally, I don't really get the idea behind agreeing to pay expenses for a friendly that Celtic contractually had to fill.
It's been said before, but the team they sent over was a joke, and the board was only right telling them to feck off.
I honestly don't think Wellvan should be expected to pay for what Celtic sent over, but how about taking that friendly Wellvan are owed? Ye're more than welcome to it.
Sure don't all Derry fans keep telling us that it is the same Derry City. Why would he need to know.
Are you sure that this was the the contracted game or the actions of those desperate for income taking a chance which backfired.
Don't you just love the way that it is "Wellvan" when it suits one arguement and "Derry City" on others.
As for 'their' friendly, I'm sure Cliftonville can deal with Celtic without such 'help.'
Do we?
It was the contracted game.
When did I say this?Don't you just love the way that it is "Wellvan" when it suits one arguement and "Derry City" on others.
Work away. Though I don't see the attraction in playing against a Celtic squad made up of 17 year olds.
Obviously the adminstrator doesn't know much about any deal with Cliftonville, so just forward whatever written deals you have to him (don't just trust the FAI to do it, they're not terribly reliable).
If there's any sort of debt owed, it's owed by Wellvan. If our new board want to sort something with Cliftonville seperately that's their decision, but I wouldn't be happy about it.
No-one should have to pay for what Celtic sent over.
It is? Thanks
I hope so and then this can be finally sorted as well
PS: I'd love to see the written agreement, obviously a very last minute one and hardly part of the original deal for the Celtic friendlies v Derry City FC?
This has been said before by numerous people, but obviously it needs to be said again. DCFC knowingly arranged the friendly for an international weekend, when Celtic weren't going to have access to the vast majority of their squad. Everyone knew from the start that it was going to be "Celtic" in name only.
It's laughable that the DCFC board tried to make out that this only dawned on them 48 hours before the game. The only thing that dawned on them 48 hours before the game was that hardly anyone was going to turn up.
I don't know if DCFC had an agreement with Cliftonville, but if they did they should honour it.
For the record they did have a written agreement.
Sorry folks but I think it's safe to say that this topic (Celtic friendly, written agreement or not) is well and truely covered and it's really only going round in circles.
If there is a written agreement then Derry will have to cover it, if there isn't then t.s.
Now I don't know if it's been mentioned before but, It's an absolute and total disgrace that Derry are allowed to enter the first division with no points deduction and no obligation to host a Monkey Knife Fight Organisation of Ireland (MKFOI for short) event in the Brandywell.
Don't think you have mentioned that before, no.
