He was most recently with Cliftonville
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
Dodge tweeting that Rovers to announce that Duffer has signed for them.
Reportedly on €2,500 per week, no less. Jesus.
If Bray is imploding, as is suspected, we'll take Cherrie - badly need a decent keeper
I cant believe that's true. Fenlon said a month ago they couldn't afford him. Wonder were the bucks are coming from.
He won't be match fit for a good 2 months yet too, Rovers are out of title race basically at the minute, in 2 months it will be well and truely beyond them as Fenlon seems more concerned with not losing than winning
Everybody knows we need a new goalkeeper WB but there was/is no money to bring Cherrie in and it seems the board are trying to cut their cloth to measure which is sensible.
I've heard if we're going to bring players in, we will have to let some go beforehand. Cherrie agreed to join us but Dunne wouldn't release any high earners... a few days later Bray swooped in and signed him.
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
I have no problem with being financially prudent, it makes a nice change. I wouldn't have had a problem with Oji being shown the door, he has been a massive disappointment, but can't see too many other high earners (Connolly? Keegan? And define 'high earner'!!) and wouldn't be inclined to release them either
I hope shamrock rovers aren't gone back to the days of Irish clubs gambling on a European victory to sign players.
Don't Rovers have the guy that owns Pepper pumping money into them? Thought that's how they sign most their big earners? Probably the same case with Duff.
Great news for the League and great for Rovers !

We are the SR the SRFC.......
Part time Finn Harps too :)
Is it good for Rovers? It will create a media circus, but how many games will he play? Will he pick and choose his games, like other prima donnas have done?
in playing terms and team performance wise, i dont think it is the smartest move, but everything else it brings arguably justifies the move.
in terms of cold hard cash, reveneue will go up straight away as a result, and will probably help rovers get a few more quid sponsorship.
Its not as tangiable, but in the eyes of the general public, it further cememnts Rovers position as the big show in town. uuuuggghh i hate even saying that
