Yes i'm 100% positive about that, it's one of the only reasons why he was aloud go on loan to Norway........ He had to sign a new contract with us or there was no loan move.

Zayed will not leave Bray until he finishes his college degree, unless a savage offer comes in that he or the club can't turn down, which i don't think any Irish clubs could offer

he aint moving to the drogs anyway:

Drogheda United and Bray Wanderers had agreed a deal to bring Eamon Zayed to the Club, however in talks with the player himself, it became clear that he does not wish to pursue a full-time career in football, but wishes to return to education. Drogheda United wish Eamon well in the future and the matter will not be pursued any further by the Club.

Zayed staying at Bray. End of transfer speculation for next 6 months anyway.

Avery good goalscorer but his work rate needs to improve, he can be fairly lazy in games and does'nt really like to be bullied. Needs to work a lot harder and a lot to do before he is worth near the money mentioned.

Told ya's that he would'nt be moving....... Great news to hear him come out and saty it in public. Fair play to ya Eamo

I said this about Zayed last season and got laughed at so glad someone has spotted how lazy he is. And yee all wonder why he was let go by Crewe and that Norwegan club.

In fairness to the comments of him being lazy, I'd rather see him standing around doing little or nothing and taking a chance or two when they come his way rather than run around like a lunatic closing down and have himself burned out by the 70th minute and not have the energy to control and finish properly. Now doubt he can be lazy, but Henry has his moments of lazyness exactly the same as eamo, neither seem too interested when they don't have the ball (take last nights game v liverpool for example).

This 'lazy' thing is basically crap. I couldn't care less if he brought his sleeping bag and had a kip down there as long as he keeps banging in the goals as regularly as before he left us. He was let go by Crewe cos Gradi never gave him a chance.

Back in the First Division, there were plenty of times when I felt Eamo wasn't putting in the necessary effort. Last season, he definitely upped things, and fought way more for the ball. Away to Pats he was poor, and was substituted, which seemed to be a shock. After that he played great.

Think its unfair to lable Zayed as lazy, a lot of the time he furrows alone up front and holds the ball up well until Foxy et al can get into the box

He has seldom played alone up front. The majority of the time Trazan, Foxy and Franco played alongside him and they did all the work, bringing Eamon into play and creating chances for him to run on to. He is a top class goalscorer but his work rate could be a lot lot better. Poor work rate = lazy in my book.
