Burns and Manseram set for Bohemians. Dec 21, 1:49 pm
According to a report on the official Bohemians F.C. website, manager
Se�n Connor has agreed terms to bring two of his former Sligo Rovers players to join him at Bohs.
The former Rovers boss has shaken hands on deals with defender Liam Burns and striker Darren Mansaram, with contracts expected to be signed in the coming days.
Former Port Vale centre-back Burns, 28, was a central part of the Rovers side that won the 2005 First Division title.
Sean Connor is quoted as saying "Liam has agreed to come to Bohemians and I'm more than happy with that.
"He's a big presence as a defender but can also play football too.
"Darren Mansaram has also agreed to be a Bohemians player, and that's another deal I'm pleased about."
Other former Sligo Rovers players linked with Bohs include midfielders Harpal Singh and Chris Turner

Well i'm afraid we knew it would come.

Mansaram has definetely lost all my respect because it's not going over to pursue a career in England like he stated.He lied so he can f*ck off with Connor for all i care.

Burns fair enough, not where'd i'd want him to go and we'll miss but that's life...

**gustavo** · 21/12/2006, 4:09 PM

Surely Mansaram signed a two year contract?

Best of luck to Burns. Mansaram can fcuk off with Connor another person to abuse next season I think he had a clause in this contract to get away

**SligoBrewer** · 21/12/2006, 6:42 PM

least he hasn't got singh like he wanted..for whatever reason.

mansaram can f*ck off, liar. back 2 england...

...not good enough for the conference, said it before. noone wants him, thats his problem. 12 goals for rovers isn't goin 2 get back on the bench at tamworth.

burns i still have a bit of respect for, but is seriously dissillusioned if he follows that twit to bohs.

a) Bohs don't play in Castleknock

isnt colin farell from there???

anyway f7uck Mansaram. id say he knew well he wanted to leave since september, hes a decent player when he wants to be, but no way is he top premier standard. dissapointed burns left, great player!
will Rovers get � from these deals??

**The Stars** · 21/12/2006, 8:31 PM

Dont think we will get money,thats why Sean only got those 2.
Singh and Turner are still under contract with us,so a fee will have to be paid if he wants them.

huh?

One of the players told me that Mansaram was always bragging that Sean wanted him to follow him wherever he went next. **** off Flash, hope you fail at Bohs.

Where have i heard you say that before?

Don't mind them though lads.The way i'd look at it is obviously they weren't 100% committed to Sligo like that spoofer from up North...so fcuk them.Yee have players like Raf who'll die for the jersey.As someone said just another player to abuse..

**feo123** · 21/12/2006, 9:45 PM

in fairness flash i thought was great for us but only really in the 2nd round of games! from the longford game at home where he got 2 up until maybe bohs at home...before and after that he was non evident, although when he played to the best of his ability he was a very good player! but he's gone now so f**k it! Dont know about burnsey, heard a few stories he was telling people hes staying and then he was telling others he didnt know and then he just left...id say he was just in negotiations for the last few weeks! but him and conor love each other i think! conor did always have a few players he liked and it was like the rest didnt matter, thats hoe i saw it with him anyway! players like burns,singh,mansaram,faz,hughes and a few more maybe he showed some favouritism and didnt have much respect maybe for some others! to be honest, 2 good signings for bohs though!!

**Red4Eva** · 22/12/2006, 12:14 AM

f*ck mansaram if what rob sed bout him in weekender is true. proven goalscorer me hole. heard some stuff at start of season that made me think mansaram was an ******* with an attitude problem, turns out the stories were true. wouldn't hear a bad word about burnsy tho. he's the main reason we're in the premier so i'm forever greatful. when i was talkin to burns once last season he said the only reaon he was at rovers was cos of the manager that signed him&he loved him cos he's pure controversial but i heard a few stories to make me think his opinion of our last manager has gone way downhill this season.

Jesus, Red4eva you're some listener. Maybe you should do an agony aunt column in the programme

**avvenalaf** · 22/12/2006, 1:16 PM

Doubt that very much, sligonproud.

**gustavo** · 22/12/2006, 1:45 PM

You would think they might have been more flexible in negotiations with our former best player.

**gustavo** · 22/12/2006, 1:52 PM

Of course you can make exceptions!
If you didnt then every footballer would be paid the same.
Look at any club in the world , the better the player at the club the higher he gets paid.
