False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.
Given Kenny already had the chance to sign them this season and opted not to.......
Reading the rumours on here, even those about Harps, is a bit unsettling. This could be one of the toughest ever years for LOI clubs- commercial revenue is incredibly difficult to come across so clubs will be more reliant on gates than before. This year has been relatively stable (i.e. most clubs have kept their problems in house) but if clubs aren't careful next year could be carnage.
Of course every club will claim their getting their signings for relatively small wages. But we've heard that before.

Thomas McBride (Ex Derry) rumoured to be signing for Monaghan!
The last i heard was that o'neill to Rovers was a done deal.
Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!
This is the main problem. Everybody can say their club aren't paying out big wages but no one really knows what the clubs are paying. Only what people might be told they are paying. Every year we hear people say their club have slashed their budget etc... but then 6 months down the line are still in trouble and wages are not beng paid.
I think everyone has to admit the first thing that comes to mind when their club sign a big name player is how we are affording him, or i wonder what he is on that we managed to get him. Everyone fears that there club could go belly up no matter how well they are being told their club is run.
Robbie Keane today signed a five year contract with Sporting Fingal. He said 'this is a dream come true for me. I've been a massive fan of Sporting since I was a child and my father used to bring .....wait a minute, Sporting Fingal?, I thought my agent said Sporting Lisbon'.
