    Dillo doesnt want to go full time but offers coming from Shels plus Drogheda are jumping over themselves to sign him.
    Still not sure as to what he is doing

    would not be too suprised with delaney moving down back south with his failure to get an accounting job in derry himself?

    not too sure if he would be a good enough signing for us considering his poor performance against us for pats two years ago in the cup final1

    derry fans wots yer opinion on him?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    I'm not sure about Delaney but Longford could certainly do with a few more Clives.

    Haven't heard any news on the transfer market.

    All I know is, it's a shame we're not in Lansdowne tomorrow. Only for that ridiculous refereeing decision against UCD who knows??

    Please not that over rated streak of píss. Most overrated defender in the league (including honker hawkins).

    I know and he wouldn't come cheap either.His wage demands are surely over €1000 p.w. I also heard that Alan & Jim are looking abroad for more talent.Apparently they have made a few trips to a country in the hope of poaching some good talent at an affordable price.We'll just have to wait and see.

    indeed alan is trying too get players in from abroad, as he said himself, the players leaving shels are looking for crazy wages and the club are on a budget so we have to signb wisely.
    Ignore Max Power, he is no more, the future is Ron Burgundy. I'd love to be Ron Burgundy but they won't let me........

    It makes sense to look elsewhere.My should the club put it's future at risk just to suit 1 or 2 player's wage demands.I know it may sound funny but we don't have the added expense of Europe this year so it may give us a chance of a better crack at the league.It's a shame we didn't make the Setanta Cup because we may have made some money from it this time around but yet again it's another distraction out of the way.4th place is defo up for grabs and depending on how Derry get on this season 3rd may also be available.Whatever the outcome of the season we should be looking to accumulate around 50 points as that would be an improvement.Who knows maybe this season the goals might flow.

    Agree 100%. He's nothing on Wesley Charles!

    I'd be amazed if we signed Delaney, money is tighter this year I think it's fair to say and he'd be on big spondos im sure. Robbie Martin wants to come to us apparently, not sure if it'll happen but he's a decent player. Heard talk of looking abroad alright but I don't know if any firm arrangements have been made, interesting that even one of our fromer players admitted to fans recently that the players in the EL are all overpaid. There's surely cheaper equivalents to be found. It just requires some imagination
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Maybe they'll do like Irish ferries. Sack all the players and replace them with cheaper ones from Eastern Europe!!

    If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation.
