Ollie Byrne, Trevor Molloy, James Keddy.

What did James Keddy do?

Still can't get over people having a dislike for Rhona "sports bra" Daly. She's just a figure of fun.

[aido_b]

Tony O Dowd and Richie Baker!

[Schumi]

D1ck O Hanlon (ex ref)

Oily is not on the list as himself and the rest of $h€l$ are above hatred

Strange one there !

[Roo69]

ffs 10% of Duffs deals, why would he have to take money off Bray? Bray would be a lot better off paying him, and every lad Devlin sends over went to a Bray underage team and onto the eL.

One of those things that Bray/Non-Bray fans are never going to agree on.

Just to clear a few things up.........

Devo is NOT an agent, as it is against EL rules. He advises people when they ask him for it. There is a major difference there.

Articvle from a few years ago in the Bray People:

An 18 year association with English Football Clubs came to an end this week as Pat Devlin has decided to take a break from scouting of players going across the channel.

Im no longer connected with any UK club revealed the Bray Wanderers boss who has been heavily involved with three of the biggest English clubs since the mid 1980's.

My contract with Newcastle United ran out in July of this year. It was totally amicable. At the moment, I'm happy to stay independent for the time being revealed Devlin. I've enjoyed my time being involved with Newcastle, Blackburn Rovers and Liverpool. I've met some great people and made good friends.

The Seasiders supremo has taken his own decision to take some time out. I've had a couple of offers but haven't taken any of them up. It's a change in my own personal policy. I have different thoughts on some matters. It's possible in the near future that I might go in new direction in the whole area of schoolboys and youth football.

It was back in 1985 when Devlin was approached by Liverpool, then under Bob Paisley, to become their contact in Ireland. I took up the offer because nothing was happening in the South Dublin/Wicklow area at that time.
During the next few years, he struck up a strong friendship with Merseyside and Celtic great Kenny Dalglish, a bond that stands firm to this day. I followed Kenny to Blackburn Rovers but only after taking a year out. We had some great times.

The two linked up again in July of 1997 in a much publicised fanfare at Lansdowne Road when Newcastle lifted the inaugural Carlsberg Trophy. It culminated in the birth of the Schools of Excellence in Bray, Arklow and Sallynoggin which were sponsored by the Magpies.

One of his best moments was the signing of both Republic of Ireland goalkeeper Shay Given and left winger Damien Duff to the Ewood Park based club. It was unbelievable. It was a fantastic experience for both of them and I was honoured to have been part of that.

His biggest regret however was Liverpool's decision not to take Roy Keane's current international midfield partner Mark Kinsella onto their books. Devlin was also involved at some point in Steve Staunton and Jeff Kenna's careers. I've been very involved over the years but with the change of management at St. James Park, I opted to go down another road. I'm now totally independent confirmed Devlin.

But he stressed Im still available to help anybody considering making such a move with advice, both to them and their families if needed, towards helping them make decisions which could be of benefit.

Roo69 the article states he gave up scouting and there was never a law to stop managers being scouts sure he was a scout since 1986 so no law broke at law. You say he is an advisor correct you are but just to bring you up to speed by being down as an advisor it covers him legally from being called an agent also quick question how did he get near £850,000 sterling out of the Duff deal to Chelsea? No matter what way you look at it he's an agent.

In fairness i have no problem with scouts My dislike of Devo comes from some rather unkind remarks he made about Monaghan not deserving to be in the same league as Bray. He was less than charitable about the club. Those Bray fans who were at CHP last season will also know that he was completely off the mark.

I presume your talking about the setup at CHP. You can have all the setup you want but still be shíte on the pitch. Monaghan fans always seem to go back to how good their setup is, but very rarely talk about how crap they are on the pitch.

[Milosovici]

I don't know what his name is, but my hate figure is the person who makes a complete arse of the fixture list every year. He still hasn't copped that Irish teams play European football. Pure gob****e.

[dfx-]

I could be here all night with this one...

Right.
Pat Fenlon. - Sums up Shels' arrogance that runs through the club.
Paul McKeon. - He should never be let ref another Rovers match.
Jason Byrne. - He just tries too hard to show off
Jimmy O'Neill. - See McKeon
Dick O'Hanlon - See above.
John Caulfield. - He couldn't stop harming Rovers.
Liam Coyle. - See above.

I could go on.....and on and on and on..

[superfrank]

Just something I'd like to know....

How old is that interview? I can't remember Kinsella playing for the past year, at least.

Im kinda surprised our own Barry Ferguson hasnt got as many mentions as some!
*I've just reminded people about him*

[Slash/ED]

I don't like Barry Fergusson only because I think he's a complete long ball merchant, Longford are painful to watch at times despite having a good footballing side and it's mainly down to him from the bits I've seen of Longford.

I hate the site of seeing Barry Ferguson playing for LTFC. Paiso and Dillo are the best combination we have.

[Maz]

I was talkin more about people thinking he is a dirty player a bully etc. I, myself think he is just an aggressive defender
