    Sorry, forgot you knew all along what was happening at Bohs last season but just didn't want to admit it on here. Anyway, people aren't stupid believing that figure and I assume you guys had a chuckle when you read it. A lot of people supporting Rovers and Pats know Ger well and know how much he's always hated Bohemian fc. There's only one reason he'd turn down Pats for Bohs, ching ching.
    False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.

    Sorry, forgot hoops know more about Bohs than anyone at Bohs. Why believe a figure given publicly when you can make up your own ? Do tell us, will your board gloss over your own losses by waving around a copy of Bohs accounts again this year ?

    Straight question MB (and other Bohs fans) - do you believe the €250k budget figure quoted in the Indo?

    Being fair, Ken Oman is from Finglas but has ALWAYS followed Rovers..In fact he's playing for them for free

    "....when you see people coming into the club and handing over money that they do not have.." Pat Fenlon

    So its not just Bohemian FC but the fans also, must be something in the air 'round Phibsborough

    Its no more than the 7k per week budget mentioned by Dundalk fans as being theirs for the season. Do you have trouble believing that too?

    He hates them about as much as he hates Rovers in fairness. He signed for Rovers, Derry, Fingal and now Bohs because at the time, they all offered him the best deal. As a good pro should do

    Whatever way you answer the same question of Dundalk's budget is very likely the same answer as i would give.

    to avoid all the needless tarting around im doing - i find 250k to be a plausible playing budget. What now? Did the sky fall in?

    Can you answer my question now?

    Imo as Dundalk have more players signed than last year then it is logical that there has been some increase in playing budget, closer to 8k possibly.

    Relax everyone, no need for the big fuss after all. Bohs are operating on a prudent budget of €250k!

    Pat Fenlon should immediately be head hunted for the Dept of Finance if he can assemble this squad along with "two or three more players" on that budget

    If you assume that he ends up with a small squad of 16 and that the four already under contract are only costing in the region of €3,000 per week over 52 weeks, that leaves an average of €210 per week over 37 weeks for each of the remaining 12 players



    New Contracts


    • Liam Burns
    • Aidan Price
    • Ger O’Brien
    • Chris Fagan
    • Anto Flood
    • Robert Bayly .
    • Daniel Joyce
    • Gary Burke
    • Mark Rossiter

    Previously under contract

    • Chris O’Connor
    • Brian Murphy
    • Owen Heary
    • Glenn Cronin
    At the moment there is no Brian or Barry Murphy in the squad. Heary is the only one that may be on a 52 week contract. Daniel Joyce is on loan.

    250k may well be a plausible playing budget for Bohs in their current finanical circumstances, but I find it hard to accept that you believe that this is the actual reality - the numbers just dont add up in relation to the signings!!

    Based on the signings of Hawkins, Bolger and Maher I would reckon Dundalks budget is certainly somewhere north of 8k.

    lot of uninformed speculation going on, seeing very little in the way of facts or supporting evidence. whilst i would tend towards skepticism, nay, cynicism, when the words fenlon and reduced/cost-effective budget are used in the same sentence, i don't have any facts, therefore any mud slinging done at bohs is purely speculative. maybe those pilloring the bohs fans could remember that, especially as some of them are actually trying to discuss the issue.
    i believe in one man, one vote. i should be that one man with that one vote.

    ALWAYS ON TOUR!

    please share those numbers with everyone so we can all be as informed as you Ezeikial. Otherwise, youre best to let this lie until you can back up your unfounded speculation.

    jesus, at that budget we could have afforded everyone of those players, even if we had to pay them to relocate! Anto would have done nicely for a start

    I don't know (and never claimed to know) what any Bohs player was being paid. If you read post #1193 you can easily understand the maths.

    The 250K budget that is quoted in the Indo just does not add up, and I suggest that Bohs fans should we sceptical and cautious about the stuff that is being peddled from inside Dalymount Park to those who care most - Bohs fans.

    I have no problem letting it lie and wish Bohs all the best for the season ahead

    If you read my response you will see just how far off you were in post 1193.

    well here is what my assumptions tell me.

    250k / 16 players / 36 weeks = 434.03 average per player per week. (40 week contracts make it e390.63 average per player per week).

    Whose assumptions are more reasonable?

    Thanks for the well wishes though (if sincere!) and best of luck to Dundalk too. I have a few quid on ye and think you'll do well.
