Irish players on the move (4 Viewers)

[CinnamonBoy]

He was good for half a season, utter crap last year. Now I'm mostly going on what I've read obviously, but he didn't seem the best in the few games I got to last season.

He's OK, but a million for a championship level left back? Yes please.

But I thought you guys were the richest club in the world?? 1m is surely just another ivory backscratcher for Flavio...

 

[Stan Bowles]

You obviously haven't been following our transfer policy very closely.

 

[Cryptid]

Yes, no harm moving Delaney on. He was ok under De Canio, who pretty much let him do what he wanted in terms of being totally out of position and staying around the penalty box. But Dowie and Sousa would have been more defensively minded and expected him to be in position and he was less confident going forward and gave the ball away most of the time. That said, anytime I've seen him play for QPR or Ireland he has been competent in terms of breaking up attacks etc. We had one of the best defences in that league last year (the shame) and he was a regular. He's just not at the standard and is in no way worth a million.

Paddy Kenny's on the move to a drug habilitation centre for an undisclosed fee

Finnan on his way to Portsmouth it would seem after Espanyol have released him from the last year on his contract.
I suppose it's not too bad.

 

[Richie]

Pretty disappointing about Finnan.. I read somewhere a few weeks that he was planning on staying out there and giving it a good go this season, obviously not working out for him.

Jamie McCarthy joined Wigan, apparently because they've promised him a regular shot at the first team.. hope he turns out the be the hot prospect he's been touted as!

 

[Cormcolash]

McCarthy has potential but that's all right now, he'd need to improve a lot to turn into a great player

Denis Behan - Cork to Hartlepool
Colin Healy - Cork to Ipswich
Paddy Kavanagh - Bray to Shamrock Rovers
Shane Clarke - Limerick FC to Janesboro

 

[Cormcolash]

Trevor Meehan - no club to Liverpool (new left-back)

Sure you might as well list Killer Kilbane's brother's move to Burscough at this rate.

 

[Cryptid]

The entire Cork City team will be moving to new clubs shortly.

 

[Jerry Twig]

Finnan signs 1 year deal with Portsmouth, who are now after perennial Thumped favourite Stephen Hunt also.

 

[cozy]

I heard Portsmouth are after Galways Jay o Shea. I wonder..

 

[Jerry Twig]

Middlesborough I thought?

 

[Cormcolash]

I've been approached by Man City because they need some defenders, we're in talks right now, I'll let you know how it works out. Could get to play with Daddy Dick! I'll pull his hair out!

 

[trev]

Trevor Meehan - no club to Liverpool (new left-back)

i havent played left back since u10s! centre forward was my position.
old school target man...probably why i'm clubless thesedays

 

[Cormcolash]

Benitez can play you out of position sure, it's not like that'd be a new thing at Liverpool, ask Jason McAteer

 

[nofriendo]

stephen hunt on the way to hull. so good chance he will be playing against reading next year

 

[Richie]

edit - nofriendo got there first!

I don't think they're the dead certs for relegation that a lot of people have them down for but it's a long way from the Everton move he was supposedly linked with last year.

 

[Unicron]

Depends on whether who replaces Brown once he gets the sack can sace them really.
