Grapevine is b*hs have offered Joe Gamble 4k a week and he is tempted. Cork Village to make a counter offer.

McSweeney has had talks with Bohs.

Gamble is the best midfielder in the league and has had a good season. Has 1 year left on his contract....

This is familiar territory for City. The old board would let this fester. Hopefully the new board tie Joe down. Id imagine Healy is on bigger money than Gamble and clear for me who the superior player is.

Jonny Arson · 08-12-2007 5:38pm

Des Byrne and Dean Pooley released by Bohs

Derry City sign the most overrated player in the Eircom League, Conor Sammon..... lol

so what was all the fuss about before the cup final about, well, the new board letting things fester?

anyway, I heard he was offered a new contract, not what the D7 shower are offereing but a nice wedge.

gimmick · 12-12-2007 3:24pm

This both amuses and scares me. City are linked with Alan Matthews to take over as manager, and Prunty, Mooney and Kodozovoic (or whatever). There is also talk of the return of George O Callaghan should Rico leave/be sacked as expected.

The players I Like, but Matthews as City manager? No thank you. Horrible horrible tactics. We have come to expect pretty football in Cork.

MrJoeSoap · 12-12-2007 3:31pm

This months FourFourTwo has Fahey, O'Flynn and Oman (I think?) in its "100 Players your club should sign". They reckon O'Flynn would be perfect for Blackpool, with Weso's brilliant deliveries.

Georgie Boy back in the eL?

20 Times 20 Times · 12-12-2007 11:50pm

Dundalk have strengthened again this time John Gill has added his final two transfers of the season :

Robbie Martin from Longford Town
Paul Crowley from UCD

So the 9 transfers in are as follows :

Aaron Shanahan
Robbie Farrell
Paul Shiels
Jamie Duffy
Ian Ryan
Dave O'Connor
David Cassidy
Robbie Martin
Paul Crowley

It's hard to see pass dundalk and Shelbourne this season , Have longford got any players left / signed for next season ?

Ronan|Raven · 13-12-2007 12:10am

We have no one...

well Daire Doyle is the only one in contract...

We all dream of a team of Daire Doyles is soon a reality!

_blank_ · 13-12-2007 12:14am

...and that Ronan dude, I hear he's pretty handy.

If you do pull on the boots, expect Liam Kearney-esque abuse from me on the sidelines in The Theatre of Nightmares.

:D

What about Paul Smyth? Any word on his signing this term? I can't seem to find out.

Paul smyth has signed a one year extentsion with dundalk , Expect the dublin based lads to extend as well next week when they get back from holidays.

He was only a loan signing last year, is it another loan one? Thought he was decent last year but given how Giller treated him I was surprised that he kept him on.

Leon McSweeny has signed for Stockport County. It seems the exodus will never end. That said, he is no great shakes.

Another pre-season thats going to the dogs.

Cant believe he's bringing this to the High court.

Im not anti Rico but I do think we need to let the new owners get their man. Rico has let the club go stale the last two years and only for a Cup win the whole of Cork would be calling for his head.

Do us all a favour Rico and leave with dignity.

Jonny Arson · 18-12-2007 9:28pm

Shelbourne have promoted under-21 players Adam McGarry, Peter McGlynn, Stephen Doran and Joey O'Neill to the first team squad for the 2008 season after impressing last season. recently released players Kieran Harte and John Brophy have rejoined UCD while Brian Gartland has joined Monaghan United

Gary Beckett - Derry City to Finn Harps
Robbie Clarke - Shamrock Rovers to Waterford United
Robbie Collins - to Monaghan United

Then those shower of twits should pull the trigger and end the uncertainty. The blame for this lays purely at "Arkaga"s doorstep. Shower of ****s.

Sean Connor sacked, confirmed on bohs website.

no heary and joxer so

gustavo · 19-12-2007 2:38pm

To be fair to Quasimodo , it cant have been for on the pitch reasons , They were doing alright results wise if not performance wise and if it was for that he would have been sacked at end of season , It must have been for some off the field transgression....

rumour is he forged player names on contracts if true they should/will be shelegated.

rumour alleged may not have happened. Funny tho if true

ciaran76 · 19-12-2007 3:03pm

So Kenny or Fenlon for the Bohs job I reckon.

I know people are going to say Kenny is at Derry but I am led to believe he has not signed anything yet

Think it happened since the end of last season so players wouldn't have played yet I dont think. I am just going on 2nd hand news to be honest.

And ye lot, and Waterford. It will be just like old times

bohsman · 19-12-2007 5:52pm

Roddy admitted to forging players names on contracts when we won the league, nothing was done, would prefer Kenny to Fenlon but not a big fan of either of them.

KdjaCL · 19-12-2007 5:53pm

Somemad rumours coming from bohs forum, he was sacked for one of these reasons:

A:forging sectaries sig on registration forums.
B forging directors sigs on contracts attached to registration forms.
C female related issues.

never a dull moment, could have next seasons asterisk ahead of time.

Seems the board have learned nothing, apparently Noel Hunt is lined up to be player manager.

That must be a joke

What are the odds on Waterford being un-relegated for a second season in a row

Apparently not going to happen.

The alleged indiscretion is not going to affect anything in the Premier last season.

Allegedly.

gimmick · 20-12-2007 5:42pm

Rico and "Arkaga" have reached an agreement and he is no longer City manager.

_blank_ · 20-12-2007 5:44pm

Round and round and round she goes, where she stops, nobody knows.

The eL Manager Magic Roundabout is in full swing folks, step up step up.

_blank_ · 20-12-2007 5:47pm

I've just heard that Pat Dolan rejected a fairly substantial wage to go back to City.

This Arkaga crowd are looking for a similar character to inject some life into the club, rumour has it that Roderick has been approached and is "thinking about" it.

_blank_ · 20-12-2007 9:10pm

In other news, I'm unreliably informed that Davey Scouse could be on his way back to Shels :eek:

DmanDmythDledge · 21-12-2007 2:46pm

Ian Bermingham could be going to Pats.

John Lukic in as "Director Of Football" at Cork City supposedly. Johnny Foreigner to follow as manager. What a fúck up of a club to support.

TYR, FUA.

Pigman II · 22-12-2007 2:54pm

Has this ever happened before?

Club : We've just sacked the manager
Public : Why?
Club : Eh, we're not saying.
