    People have also tried to put 2 and 2 together and come up with 10 with regards Devo being an advisor to Kearney and Yellow belly O'Flynn. and on this subject, from what ive heard Devo did not actually do much with the Jayo move, DIF contacted him about Jason, Shels were interested to see what they had to offer and Devo just set the meetings up along with UEFA registered AGENTS

    I might ask a question: Having read a few pages of the forum link above, the general jist is that Dolan had little or nothing to do with Doyle going to Reading, that it was actually Pat Devlin? If thats the case then what's with all the Dolan bashing over the past year from what seems to be the majority of the Cork fans on this site?

    You've completely misread it if you think that's the general jist I'm afraid.
    No-one thinks Devlin was involved in the Doyle transfer.

    As for Rico tapping up Zayed while he's contracted to Bray, if it's true, Bray should take action shouldn't they.
    I'll wait and see if they do or if this is just a smokescreen to deflect attention from Devlin's actions.

    I'd say there are very few transfers in this league where the player hasn't been tapped up.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    If Rico or anyone at CCFC has done anything wrong then Bray are entitled to make a complaint about it, and I'd have no complaints about them doing so. As for Delin- the man is a cancer on this league. Its a joke and a disgrace that the manager of a premier division club in our league is actively shipping talent away from it. When are the FAI going to stand up to the is scumbag and put him in his place?

    Oh i ****ing love being right..............

    Lads, now this is all 100% FACT so dont try come back with silly answers or slagging people off.......

    Pat Devlin had NOTHING to do with any of the Cork players wanting to move, 100% absolutey nothing ! this was a story set up to try and deflect pressure away from the club. Kearney was offered a new contract but with less wages, understandalby he was not happy so Kearney went to a sports agents company called Pro-Active Sports, who are based in the UK. They have a indpendent 3rd party repesentative over here now, who is Kevin Grogan, who once played with Bray but also worked for Cork when Dolan was in charge. Grogan did all the dealings and never once was Pat Devlin involved with this.....

    It's fine, i accept all you apoligies........ ;-)

    What, like you did?

    Your theory is riddled with errors, Kearney was not offered a contract with less wages, I know that for a fact. Who told you the story was set-up to deflect pressure, sounds like a stretch to me to claim that someone at CCFC would pick Devlin as a target when it'd be easier and more believable to pick Dolan. I doubt anyone associated with the club started this rumour.

    As for the rest after the bull and speculation in your 100% FACT story , if Grogan was Kearney's agent, fair enough, but Devlin has a history of this sh!te, that's why the Kearney story was so believable

    Spot on Tiktok.

    If Cork City wanted to fabricate a story they would have tried to lay the blame with Dolan as a lot of City fans would have been only too happy to fall for it hook, line and sinker.
    Also as Tiktok said, Kearney was not offered less wages. He was on a very poor wage from when he originally signed and was offered an increase but the new deal was still very poor (I have no problem admitting that as a City fan).

    Grogan from what I remember of him is quite close to Devlin so if anything Devlin is the one being economical with the truth and trying to deflect attention. I'd be fairly confident that both Devlin and Grogan were involved, I just know that the people who have told me Devlin is involved would not make it up and would not spread it around unless they were quite sure.

    As i stated from the very start, Devo had nothing to do with Kearney wanting to leave Cork, this was there own doing...... He also had nothing to do with Yellow belly O'Flynn wanting to leave Cork and then changing his mind.

    A story of complete lies.

    As i said these facts have come direct from the people involved.

    And oh yeah, Rico was actually on twice to Zayed tapping him up......

    When did i ever say that ?

    As stated on the post by someone, im sure every deal involves a bit of tapping up, thats just the nature of the game.....

    But my point is that, i know for FACT that Pat Devlin had nothing what so ever to do with this, yet Cork fans come on absolutley slating him for something that he has nothing to do with, and on the other hand there own manager is trying to rob one of our players.

    I think the inaccuracy of Kearney being offered less wages is not the main point here, i'm sure he was offered more but refused it.
    what i'd like to know is who put Kearney in contact with Pro-Active Sports?
    the link between Dolan and Grogan stinks to high heaven and pro Dolanites trying to forge a Grogan-Devlin link may in fact be clutching at straws here.
    I've thought from the start that this Devlin talk was just a cover to try and shield Dolan from anymore blame on dealings with Cork City players and its looking more and more like that now.

    I think you might be confusing the issue sligoman, its got nothing to do with who won the league, it is Devlins actions that are in question. Suggesting the should be thrown out of the league is ott but i think that was just said in the heat of the moment.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Your facts did not come direct from the people involved ffs, that's completely obvious, you are spinning bullsh!t regarding Liam Kearney's contract, and your claim that this was a rumour started to deflect attention from the club is ridiculous, I'd love to know what people directly involved told you this.

    and as I said before, if that IS true, Bray should take action.
    I love the way as you're getting more defensive, Rico's crimes increase

    It all sounds to me a bit like "this was a story set up to try and deflect pressure away from...."
