    Did Graham Barrett help him out with that??

    RTE have picked up on this, and mention a figure of "over €280,000" as the fee Bohs are looking for.

    its 250stg apparently (in case anyone was thinking that e280 was a bit of a random amount)
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    That said, Fenlon is worth much more than that to Bohs, but can't keep a man there who wants to leave, especially after what he has done for the club.
    Lets redefine what it means to heal

    If Fenlon does go to dundee utd( i personally think its unlikely) would Liam O'Brien take over.
    i'm led to believe he is well respected in bohs circles and could lead the team? what do the bohs fans think?

    I'd have to say yes to O'Brien. in two spells at bohs he's won 2 doubles 1 league and a league cup. while he was away after his first spell we won nothing

    As much as I intensely dislike Fenlon for his snide arrogance, his constant whinging and moaning, his hypocritical rants about demanding respect for him and his team (while displaying little for others), I have no doubt that he is the best manager in the league. His record of success is unequalled -admitedly with huge budgetry advantages at Shels and Bohs.

    Good luck to him if gets the job.

    If Fenlon can't buy up all the best players in the league, he'll fail.
    There's my 2 cent

    You forgot to mention that weird cold sore/pox he always has on the left-hand corner of his bottom lip, that he just can't stop himself from biting.....

    Not 100% sure here. Would Fenlon to Dundee go down as a transfer?

    What would happen if Bohs happened to be still under the embargo?

    You can sell players under those embargoes - just not sign anyone - so it's not relevent.

    Just before Christmas the FAI bean counters published the salary levels for the 2008 season (perhaps someone has a link) this showed that Bohs had the FOURTH yes, FOURTH highest wage bill in the Premier Division - after Drogs, Pats & Cork (leaving aside Derrys underestimation of wages) - result, Bohs won the League by 19 points and an FAI Cup. Not my idea of "huge budgetry advantage" but hey, lets not worry about a little thing like facts

    "Get back to Scotland where you belong, you'll not be missed" or words to that effect were ranted by Stuart Byrne when Shelbourne won the league under Nutsy in reference to Stephen Kenny.

    These would echo my exact thoughts towards Fenlon. The sooner this bitter wee moaning c*nt is gone from our league the better. Fenlon has no class or humility so good riddance.

    It's interesting to note that when people talk about his record they fail to mention the absolute mess he made with Derry. He didn't make one decent signing out of about 9 or 10 players, remember the great Ola Tidman, the keeper who never played for us (maybe one game against Cork when we were stuffed 4-0 I think) but who was contracted to us for 2 years on massive wages. That's an example of the legacy he left us with.

    Tidman played against Cork alright. Live on telly too. (Was it 4-1 it ended?) Even I still chuckle at that one.

    I love how Derry fans and Shels fans to a certain extent can blame Fenlon for contractual/wages/monetary issues at their clubs. It's Fenlon's fault we didn't pay tax, Fenlon's fault we gave these players stupid contracts. Fenlon's fault I needed to go to a loan shark for christmas. Get over it lads.
