I'm hearing he is waiting because we are negotiating with his team on a nice chunky signing-on fee and increased wage offer after the Knibbs deal goes through.
An insider whom I shall refer to going forward as "the man in the sand" has informed me he moved the goalposts late in the day and asked for an increase in salary, from what we thought we have previously agreed with the player (circa 450k per annum + bonuses) to (650k per annum + bonuses) ...
Done 8) in brogue we trust Are you sure? Some national media this morning is reporting interest from several clubs both championship and L1. Ah come on bruv....Brogue and myself go to a lot of trouble to bring insider information, or for want of a better word, "scoops" to this board, and ...
Can we confirm that we took a haircut on the Bindon transfer fee and/or a reduction in the sell-on fee in order to get this one over the line? i.e. we didn't spend any money I doubt we could confirm it. In practice how would it work ? The Bindon deal was done months ago. I doubt Bowler agreed perso...

He needs to stay fit and start scoring goals. We can't sign off on a 350k salary just for a guy to come off the bench in a few games and win a few headers.
looks like the data has proven me right yet again Takeaways: We have about 10 - 12 k hardcore We will add 3 - 5k to that if we get into the championship We will add 8 - 10k to that if we get back to PL Cohort of hardcore and fairweather fannies is similar in size which is a massive worry and speaks ...
Myself and Couhig have had a few chats. He knows he has a lot of goodwill already but a successful businessman is always planning ahead. He needs to get the fans on board so he is reaching out to key influencers like myself. I told him he has a lot of metaphorical credit in the bank just because he ...
Is John Ryan not Irish? He is from Limerick and is 21, so suggest it would have been JR. So we've got 2 players from Limerick, 1 from Cork and the the manager's from Waterford. Given that Shane Long was from Tipperary, we seem to do quite well shopping in Munster. Wexford is in Leinster but your po...
Walked out on Wigan due to contract breaches like Whatmough Done well in the SPL, google suggests other SPL clubs would be strongly interested The good news is we can compete with all SPL teams on wages (apart from Celtic who have no interest in him). I think he is holding out for a championship te...
I am not sure if my contact on the club side is the same as Brogue's but anyway I got a little nugget last week. We have made an offer to Jamie McGrath. He is biding his time though as he may get SPL and/or championship offers. I would be surprised if we got him but the offer was made and not reject...
You'd have to wonder what kind of player would choose to come here...at the end of each month frantically logging into the online bank account to see if the wages have cleared doesn't sound like much fun.
