2021 Season , Arrivals and departures

**sbgawa** · 22/12/2020, 8:34 PM

I see loi transfers on twitter saying dundalk about to announce a bunch of re-signings.
He is often wrong but id be inclined to believe this one, simple fact is the players out of contract are not being paid so sign now or dont get paid for two weeks over christmas and then sign anyway. Any players inclined to stay will probably bite the bullet and sign , on the other hand anyone not announced in next couple of days is looking to leave.

Derry City to make a major announcement at 11:30pm on their website tonight

**pineapple stu** · 23/12/2020, 8:36 PM

Have they signed Santa?

Bizarre time for it otherwise

**Longfordian** · 23/12/2020, 10:07 PM

Brexit deal.

On a serious note, Michael Duffy?

Ha! Now that doesn’t sound at all like Derry City...

McMillan / D Kelly / Murray all confirmed for 2021 last night.

Gartland / Dummingam expected to also sign soon, no word on Duffy yet, but signs are he will also sign.

Good player was hoping we’d retain him. In honesty didn’t do anything extraordinary. I expected more from him. Very replaceable, but if the last few years are anything to go by we’ll pickup the scraps in the last hour of the window.

Going by the reaction of Bohs fans on social media, I think Bohs fans think they’re signing Smith.

Wilson on the other hand is a great signing for Bohs.

Any opinion on the appt Cork City fans? Colin has a lot to offer with his vast crosschannel experience and his cork city experience towards the end of his playing career.

Has good playing experience to draw on , if that’s enough only time will tell. Id say they weren’t queuing up with the situation down there so not a bad appointment.

Looks like Jack Byrne is going to ansewer the question..
Sure he can do it on a wet and windy night in tallaght but could he do it on a sunny afternoon in Cyprus

That club can probably afford to pay him twice what Rovers could max budget for, its a better standard than a lot probably give it credit for, certainly miles better than LOI.

He'll have a decent lifestyle out there. Good move if it completes.

Dan McDonnel's twitter relating to the transfer is full of deluded Irish lads laughing their asses off, completely unaware of how much better the Cypriot League is. If it doesn't happen in the Premiership or involve Celtic, other countries football teams are not worth focusing on.
