After what happened with CT I wouldn't be doing any slagging on this one just yet Knappagh!Originally Posted by Knappagh Red
How come every time any club signs a player off Galway or one that Galway were interested in there's always one of ye on here with comments like that or "Heard ye are giving him crazy money" or "Ye must have money to burn" or "Rumour here that ye doubled his wages and gave him a massive signing on fee" or "Where are ye getting all the money from?" etc etc??
Getting a bit boring. Fair enough, ye are cash strapped this year but that doesn't mean every club is paying over the odds for every player that doesn't want to sign for ye.
You're consistent if nothing else!
I'm sure the question of his wages will be brought up tonight..
Cumann Peile Dún Dealgan - Champions 2015 (too many accolades to be typing)
Termonbarry Athletic TID!
His wages were brought up at the forum, and it was said that they bent over backwards to accomodate him, maybe stretching the weekly budget slightly but not too much although that wasnt officially stated.. Foster said that he called Gerry and asked him and that they worked hard all day today to get the deal done.. Also announced that we are to sign English trialist Sam Malsom in the morning.
Més Que Un Club - More than a Club
Thats not what Faz says:
http://www.dundalkfc.com/news/100225_Faz.aspI have been speaking to Galway also,” he said, “to Sean Connor, a very good man and a good friend of mine. He was on the phone to me, but, unfortunately, between Dundalk and Galway there could only really be one decision that I could make, especially with the setup here and the professionalism, and the squad being full-time.
Faz spoke in glowing terms about Sean Connor at his Oriel Park introduction tonight. Seannie may not be liked by some Sligo fans, but he is well popular with players. The club website already has an extensive interview on line:

One winner
Rumours circulated yesterday that Kudozovic had signed for Galway United. And while admitting that former Dundalk boss Sean Connor did show interest in him, the Bosnian stated there was only ever one winner in the race to land him, as he also rejected offers from lower-league clubs in the UK. “I have been speaking to Galway also,” he said, “to Sean Connor, a very good man and a good friend of mine. He was on the phone to me, but, unfortunately, between Dundalk and Galway there could only really be one decision that I could make, especially with the setup here and the professionalism, and the squad being full-time
I know a few young lads that played under Seanie, to say he wasnt liked is an understatement.
The majority of Bohs players not signed by Seanie hated him.
YEah, I'd imagine the majority of people who don't get a job under a particularl person doesn't exaclty put that person top of their Christmas card list.
"Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins."
"Homer Simpson, smiling politely."
During his time at Bohs Connor divided the squad into "his" players and others. Given the way this manifested itself it looked like a deliberate policy on his part and something i would find difficult to understand (never mind justify) in any manager.
To be fair he is obviously liked and respected by some players as they follow him around on his various travels. Maybe dividing the squad was just his way of managing things or maybe it was his way of telling players he did not rate that they should consider their options.
