Id have no doubt theyd be interested, he's an excellent young player. I just don't think they could afford to pay for him,

Never mind being able to afford to pay for him - . . . . . would they even be able to pay him

I don't bloody know.

It's a rumours thread it's full of nonsense.

The only thing we can all agree on is that Cork have one hell of a chatty dressing room.

Shamrock Rovers to do a swap deal with Sporting Fingal, Stephen Rice to go to Fingal and Eamon Zayed to come to Rovers!

Is this a rumour thread or a wish list ?

Zero, he'd an out clause in his contract for July 1st.

ya would think clubs would stop agreeing to these clauses in there contract, where a good player can **** off to another team for nothing....

Fabio in talks with Rovers and Pats apparently.

It depends. If it's the only terms a player will agree to then the manager could decide that it makes sense to agree and half him for half a season anyway, rather than not get him at all

Good signing was a great player a few years ago very strong and will do well in the league

Fabio was a! Great player for us in his day .would have him back in a flash . For some reason he seems to have elevated his status in the leauge to one of the highest paid players .Not sure how that happened tbh . His time in Dundalk and pats wasnt exactly a great success , except his goals in europe for pats . Lots of people still hate his guts in Utd pk though !

Normally there's some sort of minor pay off - like €5-10,000 for the release, kind of to cover the cost of wages already paid, this comes from the new club. He only went to Galway after Cork collapsed and after he wasn't offered terms in Malta, so in fairness he wasn't given much in the way of long term stability. Cracking player and good luck to him. He'll be missed in the LOI. (until January if some smart@rses are right :-) )

We are signing Scottish 21-year old striker Scott Anson from Annan Athletic

he scored a couple of vital goals for us in the league, one against bray and one against you's
would take him back no bother, i think the wages thing might be beyond our reach tho.

We've signed Michael Coady. Left Back from Local side Carrick United. Mean't to have a good reputation hopefully he can make the step up in competition.
