Dicker goes on trial at Birmingham

From Indo:

UCD's Gary Dicker could be following in the footsteps of former team-mate Paddy Kavanagh by joining Birmingham City. Irish under-21 international Dicker, 20, has joined the Blues on trial after similar stints at Stockport County and Bradford City.

Has Paddy Kavanagh turned informer?

It's certainly a better calibre of club than the other two. Best of luck to him on the trial. Let's hope they don't alert Birmingham to Quigley.

Any news on Sully btw?

That's more like it.

Birmingham can have Daz if it means Derry don't get him.

I don't think Daz would join Derry, unless of course they got the Champions League slot. Besides PJ would look for a move from Derry City if they sign someone else and make them #1 instead of him. I'd take PJ back in a heartbeat.

Gary joining Birmingham could be great news for UCD. Fee wise I mean and not a bad move for Gary Dicker either. They are a club that give young players a chance.

Bit of a weird one. Did he sign a new contract or can players be loaned in a 23 or younger out of contract situation? We're hardly due any money for this are we? Obviously I wish both Kav and Gary the best of luck. I think Gary could develop into a tremendous player.
