    €150,000 bid for O'Flynn

    From Scottish club Falkirk, would that be a club record? Has scored twice for Irish U-21's. Would he move to Scotland?

    Falkirk won Div 1 last year but were not allowed into the Prem because the club was sub standard.

    They have €500,000 from transfers. I would much rather live in Cork than Falkirk.

    Stepping stone to bigger things. ฃ150,000 - i'd say that's a good price.Much better than losing him in a year or two for nowt...

    Falkirk

    There is a story on soccer central about this although no fee is mentioned

    http://www.soccercentral.ie/viewstor...&viewstory=yes

    i hope city dont put money over the good of the team. O'Flynn is the teams lynchpin and our best player by far

    It's an exclusive in the Irish Sun, only buy the paper because Keely has a column in it on a Tuesday. They also have a full page advert in the Kildare County programme, I like to support the companies that support County.

    The money's about right but it would be a step down for O'Flynn, football wise

    O'Flynn

    Dodge I would agree with you on that one. I think it would be a step down after all ur league is better than the scottish first div

    Hasn't he said he would only go to a Premiership or 1st divison team in England?
    Even the Scottish Premier league would be a step down if it was not Celtic or Rangers.

    so we could well a situation where as was stated the money was right, i think the club would consider selling for 150,000 + sell on and appearance clauses, but you could/should/hopefully have JOF turning the deal down cause falkirk are CRAP
    and it's a big step down from playing for the Rebel Army

    If Shams got €250,000 for Noel C๚nt off Kilmarnock
    Flynny has to be worth 4/500,000

    Not that he's going anywhere anyway!

    I'd think very poorly of him if he agreed to the move. Has he ever come out with statements saying he's desparate to go back to the UK

    What is amazing to me is that (1) no one has approached city before about him and (2) that he was let go from the UK in the first place.

    i consider him to be citys second best player ever (after dave barry, of course).

    Only Pat Morley and George O'Callaghan come close to John O'Flynn as City's best ever. Barry was good but not in the same class as these three.

    O' Flynn was actually only let go by Peterborough because they couldn't afford him after the ITV digital thing. His manager Barry Fry said one day he would play for Ireland.

    BTW Neil you're right , if that rovers fella was worth 250,000 then I reckon Flynny has gotta be worth at least 500,000
    I'm gonna take a blow torch to everyone who writes "any info on......." on the desks in the ucc library.

    Who's with me

    from a football point of view,if you were john o flynn you would have a better chance of getting to play europoean football with ccfc than you ever would with falkirk and they can't even play in the scottish premier!!by playing european football you would therefore have a better chance of being noticed by english clubs' scouts than you would playing with falkirk i would say.

    What i'm saying is if he wants to play in england and not with falkirk he should hold out until the end of the season when we could qualify for europe.
