He wins you the league on the last day of the season, and this is all you can say?

If he does leave, City would want to get their sh!t together ahead of the champions league qualifiers or they will go the way of Longford Town.

On the offical site. Bit of a balls, isnt it? And for no cash either. Any likely replacements?

Most annoying thing is not getting a penny! As a professional footballer if someone offers you more money of course you are going to take the chance. Pity though they left their contracts run out so it would make any potential move that bit easier for them. It kind of leaves a bad taste in the mouth as a city fan.
I have a feeling we won't miss either of them as much as Doyle though.

I think we should consider making a move for eamon zayed from bray,quality whenever ive seen him play,wouldnt be a bad replacement and young aswell, can only improve

Yet if he signed a three year deal and pledged his love for Cork City you'd be hailing his brilliance and licking his arse. Ye Cork boys are about as shallow and two faced as they come when it comes to players coming and going.

How about "Fair play John, thanks for everything, and best of luck over". But no, its Cork or nothing with ye. Give the boy a break. After all, he did serve ye quite well, and never hid his intent to go back to England some day.

**Peadar** · 19/12/2005, 3:40 PM

The good news is that Hoggie has signed a new deal.
Great servant to the club and great attitude.
The type of player we want and need at our club.

I don't think every city fan considers him a judas. Most of us are ****ed off we won't get a penny for him but would wish him well.

Now ye Limerick boys are about as ....................................

O'Flynn has signed for Swansea, its not just a trial yeah?

**CuanaD** · 19/12/2005, 4:16 PM

They had better take Kearney's photo off the 'welcome' page then!

**R�iteoir** · 19/12/2005, 5:51 PM

Kearney to Dutch side Heerenveen

O'Flynn more than likely to Swansea City

More details to follow...

**Buller** · 19/12/2005, 6:02 PM

Please dont say they both went on a free!!!

**kingcolers** · 19/12/2005, 6:05 PM

according to rico's interview on red fm, the reason they didnt extend the lads' contracts during the seaosn was because he didnt have time... apparently there's nobody else at city to sort out contracts and rico was too busy coaching the team. heavy price to pay for lack of support staff...

**dancinpants** · 19/12/2005, 6:09 PM

According to the transfer thread they were "released" so I would assume they went for nowt!!

**ollie** · 19/12/2005, 6:25 PM

yeah they were both out of contract after the cup final and they're not renewing their deals.
They were both offered good deals apparently but i suppose they are that stage of their career where if they were going to move back cross channel or abroad at all it was going to be now.i'm very dissapointed that they've gone but best of luck to them.

indeed if true

**adamcarr** · 19/12/2005, 7:23 PM

There both Judas scum. Kearney doesnt have a hoppe at Heerenveen, he's far too inconsistent. As for Flynny, Id be suprised if he passes the medical!

**Speranza** · 19/12/2005, 7:30 PM

I have seen many superlatives used for Kearney yet always felt his talent was (in true Cork fashion) overstated. Same with O'Flynn.

Big enough blow though as Cork were already light up front.

**jorge** · 19/12/2005, 7:48 PM

no time?
crap excuse tbh.

**jofyisgod** · 19/12/2005, 8:15 PM

Good luck to the lads, but this has been handled badly once again by City.

Kearney-he didn't want to stay, made no bones about it
JOF-Had a great 2 years when he joined, fizzled away since. TBH, if he was gonna go back across the water, he should've gone after his first season. Too late now for him, I fear.
