    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    At a rough count using This site last season there were 90 odd EU players in the championship, and in 2016 there were 130. Thats probably within a reasonable margin for error. But according to agents dealing with Irish players Brexit is having a huge impact, though mostly in L1 & 2 What's...

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    To be fair this is probably the toughest time to do any sort of transfer that there has ever been in football. The markets completely fucked. Combine that with a new management team that seem to want to make wholesale changes to the style of play and I do feel sorry for the recruitment team...

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    Just to point out he was transferred in January for 1.A lot less than 50k 2. He was out of contract and the rules for transfers between clubs in Ireland for free agents u23 is that the buying club pays 1 years wages to the old club. So it's not really a reflection of his value. The rumours...

    I know Sean is on here a bit but that article is pretty misleading. The deal was rejected by Rovers due to it not meeting the clubs valuation, the injury to Pico is neither here nor there really. The offer was rejected before the game on Saturday where Pico got injured even.

    First off it's Rovers or Shamrock Rovers. Yeah I mean he's saying it because it's true. I've a good few mates or mates of mates that are involved in professional football in England and Scotland, as players, scouts, agents, analysts, etc, and they're all saying the same thing. One person...

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    Just from what I'm hearing in Ireland I wouldn't want to be responsible for making transfers at the moment at championship or League 1 level. Basically what I'm hearing is covid has hit some clubs, owners and sponsors hard so money is tough to find, but also Brexit has made signing EU (excluding...

    Well he's definitely not an academy player anyway. He's at worst a bench player for Blackpool and depending on the system Appleton settles on he'd be a starter.

    To be honest they were saying 200k pounds looked like it would get the job done just a couple of days ago. Just based of previous sales, and the club being in the best financial position it has probably ever been in I just don't see 350k pounds being enough. Now there could be add ons that make...

    Should point out that when Rover fans talk fees its in euros. So 500k euro is about 425k pounds. Just for reference. Don't think 350k pounds gets the deal done to be honest. Medicals aren't really pass fail jobs. They're risk assessments. They're also highly subjective, so it's likely whoever...

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    His left foots not just there for standing on but he'd rather use his right foot whenever practical. He's scored with his left foot but I can't remember him playing a more than maybe 20 yard pass with it probably a good way to describe it

    Considering bohs were the 5th best team in the league last year I'd say its a bit above the National League

    There's not that much of a sample size tbh, Rovers play with inverted full backs so they tend to be too narrow for a traditional cross when they get the ball. The couple of crosses he have been quite good from what I can remember, wouldn't stand out as a weakness anyway.

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    I know theres been a good few scout watching him but from who I don't know. I would imagine there'd be a fair few clubs waiting to see how he get on in Europe. With the conference league theres a good chance of him playing group stage football which would probably give scouts a better idea of...

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    That's basically been my thinking since the start, is he worth 500k, absolutely, is he worth 500k to Blackpool, that isn't as certain.

    For what its worth these goals sort of showcase his technical ability quite well, he wont be doing a million stepovers but he does the basics very very well and isn't afraid to run and the guy defending him. Goal vs Shels Goal vs Finn Harps Goal vs Pats He has also scored 3 headers and a tap...

    My bad, I have Football manager open on the other screen and was in the process of negotiating for the former (has he moved now?) Arsenal defender and got my Callums mixed up! Meant Callum Connolly, who I know mainly does DM and RB but can do a job across the back.

    Just before I get peoples hopes up, I meant that as a "very good technically but his lack of size has prevented him getting the praise he probably deserves". Hes very good on the ball don't get me wrong but Wessi was different level.

    Honestly everything I said there is in the public realm I just know enough about both sides that I thought I'd just put all the stuff that could be relevant to the situation in one place for everyone. Ah I got what you meant by worst to deal with. Took it as a compliment!

    Summer Transfer Rumours trois - Will Appy (re)sign anyone?

    My honest answer is its really hard to know. Purely because there's no doubt hes technically able for it, the question is would he be physically able for it. The LOI is a very young and our best players tend to be very technical, it's when that physical aspect of the extra yard of pace, extra...
