    and you could say that there's far more potential with the Wolves Irish youngsters than there is at Sunderland. I wouldn't be surprised if Keogh, Potter, Elliott and Gleeson establish themselves as Premiership players at some stage in the future...

    Any word on Douglas? There is every chance that Leeds won't even be in the league next season, he'd want to be making tracks. I think he had an operation in June which doesn't help.

    The EL hardliners will have a fit drawing attention to this here but since when did I ever care?

    Here's the story.

    Fulham close in on O’Donovan


    July 20, 2007

    Barclays Premier League side Fulham are closing in on the signature of Cork City star Roy O’Donovan and the deal may well be completed as early as the weekend.

    The Cottagers and League One side Southend United made firm offers for the Republic of Ireland under-21 and ‘B’ international this week.

    Nottingham Forest, Watford and Hull City are also said to be interested but Fulham look certain to win the race.

    Lawrie Sanchez is reported to have offered €300,000 plus add-ons for the 21-year-old, in a deal which could see Cork net approximately €450,000 as well as a significant proportion of any future transfer fee.

    Cork are holding out for a bigger initial fee but it is believed that the respective parties are not far off agreement on a deal which would make O’Donovan the most expensive League of Ireland player of all time.

    If I were Keano, and I'm not..... after missing out on Bobo Balde and Paul McShane, why not go for Darren O'Dea? I heard Sunderland were interested...(trying a palacio)

    Don't think a Celtic bit player would make it in the Premiership. Needs to establish himself first as a regular at Celtic Park.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    billsthoughts we were just discussing that last night, keane has paid a lot for unproven and average players. we came to the conclusion that , coming out saying you have 25 mil to spend will make other clubs take note and increase the price tag on a player....

    be interesting to see how Dion " Sunderland Cheerleader " Fanning spins this in his next column...yeah agree with above. doesnt seem the wisest move in hindsight telling the world you have a rake a cash to spend. its not like he is even buying youth or proven players , its just pure averagness he has brought in....loads of squad players

    He was immense against Milan in both legs and has rarely put a foot wrong for Celtic.

    He would make it into lower half premiership teams I reckon. But he's not going anywhere.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

    Keane did inquire about him last year but was told no dice by GS.

    I've read on another site that our controversial college kid international Joseph Lapira is on trial with none other than Rangers FC of Scotland.

    Notre Dame attack wizard Joe Lapira arrived at Murray Park Monday for a trial of unknown length with Scottish giants Rangers, ASD has learned. The Louisiana native holds an Irish passport, which would smooth any potential move. Full report to follow...

    hmmm what do they mean by "smooth" here......

    he looks quite heavy in that picture above...heavy meaning "big"

    'Smooth any potential move'...

    Christ. You'd know well it was a yank writing this article.
