Read this in todays papers and i can't believe it. Supposedly signed a 3 year contract and turned down the advances of foreign clubs. Knew he was going to leave shels but this was not the club i was expexcting him to sign for.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Wish he was a City player.
Great signing for Pats.
Last seasons player of the season*, leaves Shels(the champions) and goes to St. Patricks Athletic???
Only in the EL!
*Pat Fenlan never used him enough
in fairness, u'd be mental to stay at shels now..Originally Posted by harry crumb

i get more money than most of the players are gettin
In fairness, ye'd welcome him to your club with open arms too. Quality player.Good stuff Joey. Chanced your arm selling your self to the bores and the pats fans take you back as a hero even though they were plan b

I can only conclude from this decision that he was desperate not to leave Dublin !
In fairness none of us know the wages. I know what he asked for about a month ago, and I know that we offered him less than a third of that about a month ago. I presume they've met somewhere in the middle

Apparently, he was far beyond Derry's wage structure looking for up to €3kpw to relocate from Dublin or chancing his arm like he did with Bohs. Must've took a cut as Dodge said.
As Irishmen we dilute our sense of nation by depending on the English to bring us our balls
AFAIK he never stopped hanging around with the Pats players, I don't think he ever really fit in off the pitch at Shelbourne, is this fact or still in the rumour phase???
Sitting pretty!!!
Always appeared to me to be something of a loner at Shels. Maybe that's in his nature.
Great player - will be sadly missed at Shels. On his day, like McCourt, he is brilliant. When not on his day, also like McCourt, he can be brutal.
No Elvis, Beatles or the Rolling Stones
In 1977
Pat's would have the guts of a top four side next year, with a more capable manager.
A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.
If fit.

Rogers Brennan Foley Frost <Maguire Quigley>
Kirby Ndo Foley Mulcahy? Fahey <O Connor Murphy>
O Neill < Quigley 2 Rooney>
Would imagine we never see a fully fit 11 and struggle to get 7th, so my hope for the season is 6th

Have either of the three been confirmed by Pats yet ?
Ndo Rogers and O'Neill ?
I know Ndo made it into a few newspapers but so did Nutsy left Shels and signed for Bohs
John Delaney!! GET OUT!!!

Great player, who would grace any team.
The terms he asked from Bohs were laughable though. Talk about pricing yourself out of the market.
Cogito ergo Bohs
Excellent signing. Best individual performance I saw last season. Pats look set for a good season.
Vitruvian man
Bohs are allegedly loaded he was testing the veracity of that statement.
Not quite true CTID - unless he asked Bohs to show him their bank statement, which would be an odd request at the best of times and an utterly bizarre negotiating tactic by Bohs if they complied.
He was merely testing their willingness to part with lots of their loads.
Revenge for 2002
great signing and I now fancy Pats to do well next season, possible european spot in sight?
