Why have they put him in the toilets to do the interview? All I can hear is echo and not a jot of what he's actually saying

He is the one out of contract.

Yes. He's agreed to play for nothing.

Keiran Sadlier, Midfielder, was the cheaper one, a free,because he was out of contract

                                       but our main objective was......................

Sean McLoughlin, priced at £250,000 plays Left Back or Centre Back.

Couldn’t see that without my specs mate.

Not really tongue in cheek though is it.

A good option and one who seems to relish taking penalties!

Some of his goals on YT;

Interesting option. Not sure if he plays as a forward or midfielder.

Post by: Chris Black come back on December 10, 2018, 08:26:21 pm
That is the point I think. Like Copps, Rowe, Crawford or Blair they could play in middle three or front three.

Not having a go at anyone here but I remember seeing video clips of Kongolo and everyone raving about him.

I would not say he was a cheap option (maybe tongue in cheek comment) he was out of contract. Therefore it’s down to wages of a goal scorer.

The defender we will have to pay a transfer fee if we want him which will cost but his wages may not be as expensive.

I also believe looking at him he’s more a front three player than middle three in our set up.

He is 24/25 years old and done well in the airtricity League and has played in the champions league

A big difference Hound; Hythe Town are in tier 8 of the Pyramid; that's 3 leagues below National Premier, and 4 leagues below League 2.

There's been many a footballer who've made it to the top from the Irish leagues. Let's not prejudge and let's see what he can do.

Yes he could be, but the level he came from is higher. He’s been given an 18 month contract so we’ve not broke the bank and given him a chance to show what he can do at this level.

I am not prejudging DBR, just asking what the standard is like.
He could be a very good addition to the squad.

Post by: Pliskin on December 10, 2018, 09:39:23 pm
Some good players have emerged from the Irish league recently. Sean Maguire (Preston) and Ronan Curtis (Portsmouth) have done well since moving in the summer.

Obviously there are no guarantees that Sadlier will do the same but it's surely worth a shot at least.

Far above that level. Alfie May came from the absolute nowhere leagues. Sadlier has just been the best player in the Irish Premier, it's not a slum league.

I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do. We don't often sign players with this sort of playing background and there's certainly gems to be found.

I was under the impression that this is the dearer, much sort after one. Midfielder who is impressing a few scouts/clubs.

Sadlier is the free transfer signing because he's out of contract. McLoughlin will cost a transfer fee as he is still under a deal with Cork.

  When does his contract at Cork end, can he be added to our squad  over the Christmas period, or not play until January, in which case he will train with the team and the period would be used more or less as a preseason.
  Beestin I think now is down the pecking order and I would not be surprised if he was loaned out in January if we can get him a club, but Alfie May, and Blair come under pressure now, especially with their contracts up at the end of the season.

Matty Blair said that although everyone thinks he is out of contract he actually signed a three year deal so he's here for an extra 12 months.

His contract with Cork has ended, he is now a DRFC player but the transfer window does not open until January 1st therefore he can't play for us until that day.

  Well at least that gives him 3 weeks to train with the lads,integrate in the group and raise his fitness a few notches so he will be ready to go in January..

  Not sure how the rules work,Cummings was out of contract and joined us and can play,,Sadlier is out of contract but cant..It must be if you've played for a club already this season..
Title: Re: our new lad Sadlier
Post by: RedJ on December 11, 2018, 10:31:58 am
Cummings wasn't joining from another country.

Besides, I'm pretty sure there's a point in the season before the winter transfer window that you can no longer immediately play free agents/signings.

According  to GM in article in Free Press he will compete with Copps, Wilks, May, and Taylor for the wide berth in the front three.

Apparently signing on fee and wages makes him a ££££ signing

Sean McLoughlin, Centre  Back, was the player rated by his club at £250,000.

His contract with his club runs out on the 31/12/18.

As far as I can see he still has not signed for anyone yet so it is still a possibility.
Title: Re: our new lad Sadlier
Post by: Alan Southstand on December 13, 2018, 04:23:38 am
If that is correct, Alec, re his contract expiry, how can his club expect anyone to be paying that sort of money? No doubt, they'll be due something due to his age, but nowhere near that amount. We must be playing the waiting game?

Surely it's 18 months, why would they give him a deal that expires halfway through their season? Got to remember they play a summer season in Ireland.
