Not sure where your getting your info from but on some of the other forums especially those related to Derry ,you'll see that they'll have none of this years squad for next season and whatever they bring in will take time to gel.Even the money they'll have wont be huge, certainly nothing like Sporting had this year or Shels for that matter.

Yes. I agree. What premier teams offered him a contract?

i do think the situation with his girlfriend had a lot to do with his decision which is understandable.

Well from what I understand 6 or 7 of the players from last year will be re-signed. Didnt one lad come back from a trial in scotland because he missed derry so much? Anyway its all speculation at the moment what Derry and ourselves are gonna do in respect to signing players.

I know limerick offered him a chance of LOI football again but he has more chance with derry to get promoted. Limerick are a mid table 1st division team and maybe stephen saw evidence that this was not gonna change next year. best of luck to him and he done really well in his short spell back at the club.

Speculitive post. Do u have proof that Derry will be working off a decent budget? "with the squad they will be putting together" again highly assumtive. Fair point on saying limericks team of last season was pretty much mid table but can you go into the future as you seem to be doing on your generalisation of Derry and imagine what type of team limerick might have??? but then your wishing him good luck.....has he signed? i dont even know wheater to believe that Kenny has signed his contract as Dundalk are sniffing around him. Has your pal duggan been in touch witht the club?

**micls** · 04/12/2009, 5:21 PM

He could be waiting a while.

**micls** · 04/12/2009, 5:30 PM

I'd be shocked if we have a manager before february so he'd be mad to be waiting on us.

Agree. Why wait in the hope the incoming manager even wants him.

So if he likes the manager he'll go down and automatically get a contract on his own terms and wages?

gael is correct to question derrys budget,flynn has been offered more to stay at limk than has been offered by derry.his possible move there hinges on other things.

as usual TO1 you have incorrect information.

players are either amateur or professional id say john as he was signed from a club which is amateur (and didnt give him any money

) so players like boyle would get a standard basic and either an expence account or an appearance fee on top. i would be unable to give you figures though as i wouldnt be privvy to them. rem also that this is a semi pro league with the odd exception and most players are either in college or have jobs (in johns case hes an electrician) or in todays climate many are now unemployed. now whats your next piece of incorrect information you have for us??

If that is true what difference does that make? John Boyle was offered a contract last season which he accepted. Its not like he was forced to sign.

and adding to that i was speaking to john only recently and he said he was sorry he went back to junior ball as he felt he regressed and was glad to be given the oppertunity to play at a higher level. "if any guy is ever offered to play league of ireland he should take it, i was lucky to get a second chance."

Credit to John for sticking with it this year.
