    Under contract for the season so far as I'm aware, but I think that's mainly to try ensure a transfer fee in the summer.

    (Same with Whelan, which of course is moot now given his unfortunate injury)

    I know Man City have a crazy amount of very talented young players but I'd have thought a better option would be stick for another season as a 20 yr old and go out on loan at a higher level than Portsmouth with a clause that he is first choice, then reassess his options. Unless there is a good club interested in signing him outright. Starting to feel Kelleher needs to move too though ye get the impression he is in his clubs longer term plans though Becker has years yet, but he has to be above Karius and Adrian - lads suited to being back up, where Kelleher could be a No.1 at any number of clubs and at 23 has that bit more maturity/experience with some game time a top European club.

    We must be getting close to knowing if a couple of our loanees will be recalled and how to manage what could be some huge losses. As per Orielweb it is a relief to know that Sheppard is well under contract. Williams not returning so with a light squad we could do with a couple of lads in. Some local rumours of signings that would keep most happy but i'd err on the side of this being some wishful thinking that's grown legs. We may be a bit ahead of expected development as per the league table but the club sensibly seems to be sticking to the plan and not fall in to making signings thinking we could sustain a proper title challenge. European qualification is still the realistic target and try and use what remains of our co-efficient in 2023 (seeded for 2 ECL rounds?).

    Fairly sure the arrangement with both Whelan and Kerrigan was that they would be effectively allowed to leave mid season without a fee, otherwise they would have walked end of last season. Just some compensation due in both cases. Others leaving UCD and not just lads who are done in college, strong rumours of players walking in the mid season break. All not well at UCD is the word and nothing to do with league position.

    League position could be due to all not being well. It was always going to be a difficult season but not, as stu put it, Kilkenny City levels of difficult. They always seemed to have a fearlessness and could take a scalp - I certainly never associated them with being cut loose at the bottom mid season although it may have happened.

    That historical fearlessness came from players being trusted to play football at UCD, but even last season the style was incredibly direct, a brand of anti-football that is alien to the culture there. Looks like players simply aren't trusted to play football. Since Ian Ryan left its been awful to watch, I think he provided some sort of foil to Mylers lack of trust in players to keep it on the deck, but then OConner arrived and the pair of them make Ollie Horgans Harps look like Chelsea by comparison !

    I thought Myler was well regarded as the main man. There is a wee bit of irony in Ryan being the footballing influence as he was quite fond of the hoof and safe way when at Dundalk.

    in his own mind he is certainly well regarded, doing the interview circuit recently building his stock. Bear in mind that with the exception of myself and Stu, there aren't too many die hard UCD fans, so no fan pressure, no pressure from board level, as that would require a recognition that an internal appointee is problematic. The word is that he lost the dressing room a long time ago and most players would be happy to see him out.

    Ye just dont associate that with UCD, it would be unusual for kids really, to turn on the manager. Do you think a change could happen? It could see an improvement if its a bit of a reach to save the season.

    Don't see any chance of a change, simply because he's an insider appointment, so that would require the board to say they were wrong. But I think UCD need to protect their own brand here as well, players will soon stop picking UCD as their college of choise if it has a smell off it.

    He is for sure, considerably more than twice. The irony is that UCD will be looking up the table at Wexford next year.

    With Kenny re-inacting his dead man walking routine last seen at Rovers, would bohs be a good next destination for him. Small club, no ambition, same as dundalk when he took them over.He could work his magic on them and turn bohs into a successful football team, not just a home for bees and twirly moustaches.

    The Bees have to live somewhere, i cant believe the ongoing casual disregard for them on this forum.
    On the other hand has anyone ever met a fella with a Twirly moustache that wasn't a self important ****?
