Joxer to Charlton?

[SkStu]

750k euro (incl. add ons) and Charlton can have him. He is a quality player.

[Theskinloyal]

Do you not think he's you're most creative player? Would Singh replace him?

[Dodge]

If that's your 4 man midfield then Joxer would walk in blindfolded!

[Kildare Lad]

I have to say I also think he would get into the pats midfield without much hassle...

Ndo is oour third/fourth best midfielder. Not a patch on Fahey, Mulcahey or Kirby

The classic "Star Player? He's not even our best in that position" wheeled out when someones class stands out above others.

Made famous by the Derry "McCourt, ha <spit> nah too eratic and inconsistent!" naysayers.

Then again, you see them every week.

[Dodge]

I'm not joking. I'd have Fahey miles ahead of Ndo for us this season. Ndo has been poor the last 3/4 weeks

[Red4Eva]

do ppl really think he's that good???? i wud have expected a player worthy of such a price tag to absolutely run the show against us on friday. of course bohs fans wud know a lot more about him than me but i always got the impression that his form was a tad erratic&that his discipline is suspect. i also heard that story bout him and heighway not gettin on around the time he moved to bohs

[SkStu]

yeah red, his discipline was pretty suspect but luckily it seems to be something he has worked on and got right. I dont know the stats but it would be interesting to see his yellow and red cards for the last 2 seasons.

Regarding his form, he has some quieter games but he is always making runs, picking passes and taking players out of games. Id say hes one of those players the opposition hate to play.

He would in his swiss roll,He wouldn't get near that Pats midfield

[Erstwhile Bóz]

His touch is great and he passes the ball really sweetly.

Most of that passing was lateral against Rovers, though, just keeping moves ticking over (and he had a fairly poor first half) but it was better against Sligo. He's still a bit lightweight but he looks up for it this season.

[Schumi]

i always got the impression that his form was a tad erratic&that his discipline is suspect.

I'd agree, he seems to spend more time kickinbg people than playing whenever I've seen him.

[NeilMcD]

I would rather Fahey than Joxer at the moment to be honest.

[Theskinloyal]

Well I'll always have fond memories of joxer jumping to catch the ball in his own box to give us a penalty on the last day last season. What a class act!

Still though I'd really rate him as one of the best Eircom League players.

Oh, your talking about the Fahey who couldn't get into the Drogheda midfield?

[eirebhoy]

now this is only a rumour that i read in a liverpool fanzine but allegedly the reason he was released was because he had a temper and had one run in too many with steve heighway and that got him bombed out.the same piece said he was regarded as the best of his group over there.now before any one gets on their high horse im just telling ya what i read.

He was definitely regarded as the best of his underage group at Liverpool. He was the U18 top scorer from midfield when he was a year younger than most of his teammates.

[hoops1]

Be sick if he goes. unless he goes back to liverpool which i wouldn't be surpised as he is held in very high regard there and Stevie Gerrard begged him not to go

Ye he cleaned his boots very well.

[Dodge]

Michael Foley (then Michael Foley Sheridan) was highly rated at liverpool too, and once scored 6 in a game from midfield. He's now Pats 5th choice midfielder

Loads of talented kids don't develop... If Kelly goes, I wish him well but I could probably pick 10-15 midfielders I'd have ahead of him in this league

[Shelsman]

I hope Bohs dont mess this up, too many clubs messing up recently, City being the worst culprit imo.

A bit unfair, considering they have got the biggest fees recently, much more than what Bohs got for Ward. Not having substantial performance related clauses in the deals for Doyle and Long was a mistake, but the fact that they didn't look for too much initially meant that the two boys did make the transfer and the fact that they did so well meant they could demand more the next time. City did include, from what I gather, a clause to get a percentage of any subsequent transfer, so if Doyle does go for a big fee ( Aston Villa had a bid of five million sterling rejected in January ) then City will get their just rewards.

So from what I can see, City have been leading the way recently -they are the ones who turned down repeated bids until they got the money they were looking for ( Reading bid just €100,000 for Bennet initially but finally got him for €350,000 -not sure of the currency ). I can't remember any other Eircom League Club saying NO to big English clubs before. Fair play to them. Bear in mind too that they turned down a bid of €500,000 for Roy O'Donovan too!

Richie Patridge anyone?
