Rumours that Skippy is heading to Bohs to replace Murphy
I'd love to invent a time machine then go back in time and win the lottery, buy new players and a stadium. Time machines are brilliant aren't they- Ian Holloway
I agree on Crowe, he's been very poor this season. Some would say the same of him last year, but he suited the system Bohs played with players coming through from midfield to support him. In the more regular 4-4-2 this season, he was really found out. I wouldn't have him at Sligo on even half his current wage, would rather see Marshall get more of a run in the team.
Couldn't see Ndo leaving Dublin, to be honest. Much more to offer than Crowe, obviously, but I'd expect him to negotiate a contract with one of the other Dublin clubs if he leaves Bohs.

IN-DEMAND striker Raffele Cretaro hopes he will able to agree a deal to stay on at Sligo Rovers.
The Tubbercurry man scored 21 goals in all competitions this season and his form in recent weeks earned him the player of the month award for October from the Soccer Writers Association of Ireland.
That form in front of goal has attracted interest, as Shamrock Rovers and Bohemians have been linked with Cretaro, but the player would like to stay at the Showgrounds.
"There have been a lot of rumours about my future and I haven't decided yet about what is happening," said Cretaro, who helped Sligo secure their Premier Division status and also reach the FAI Cup final. I will speak to Paul Cook over the next week or so. I owe him that much, to see if we can arrange something. If that's not possible, then I'll see if I can come to an agreement elsewhere.
"My future is up in the air but I do owe Paul that much - the opportunity to try to get me to stay because, if it was possible, I would like to stay at Sligo.
"I can't wait for the FAI Cup final. I am a local lad and I've always wanted to play for Sligo in a final. I just hope the nerves don't get the better of me on the day."

maybe neither Bohs nor Rovers were willing to match his alleged wage demands.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

Great keeper, He'd do very well at Boh and end up across the water after a year or two aswell IMO!
roddy collins should be a comedian!!
Just to respond to this and leave it at that (cos I don't want to drag the thread off topic).
The "dumbass" was meant more tongue in cheek than anything. If you know the Xano story, I thought the Sligo lads' posts were quite funny, and galwayjames dug himself a hole. If we want to stick rigidly to rules, I can infract him for calling another poster an idiot if you want. Otherwise, I think a little ribbing for falling so spectacularly into a long-running in-joke is compromise enough.
If this is a rumours thread and not official transfers thread, I've heard Ronan Finn is on his way to Drogheda if they stay up, and Gavin Peers on his way to Bohs.
Lets redefine what it means to heal
I'd be surprised if Drogheda could afford the transfer fee on Finn. He seemed happy enough to stay on when I was talking to him on Saturday night too; has it cushy with refereeing Superleague for extra cash and all*. But it's possible, obviously.
* - Oh no! Double contracts!

I’m not pedantic...I’m merely overly concerned with minute details.
The rumour of Glen Crowe to us seems to be hitting the papers now. I still think if Crowe is some sort of replacement for Raff if he leaves is a step backwards, a star player in his day but hes past it now, hes 31 now but he should still be banging them in! Has the other rumour of Ndo to us been mentioned aswell ?
Coleman for Ireland
The various transfer speculations about Rovers reminds one of a piece of verse by er, em, er Heaney one thinks,
If he gets the Dough,
then Raf won't go,
All say hello,
To Crowe,
And Ndo.
Quite.
