Defender Conor Keeley from Drogheada 250k a rumour on Twitter

That sounds an awful lot up front for what is, presumably, an Irish chancer?

Thought you’d dropped this as you were making yourself look very stupid! You said I think he has been brought in as a RCB which has been proven to be not the case by my quote you’ve quoted, I merely said he could have been brought in as a RCB not a RWB and hopefully not to replace Clarke, purely because I did not want Clarke to leave. You bang on about him not playing in a position he is used to playing in- previously he has played at RB but has played in a back 3 as a RCB so why you keep saying he will be more natural as a RWB doesn’t fit.

He may well have been brought in as a RWB but I am glad Clarke is staying and signed a new contract so I’ve moved on- think you need to, you’re obsessed! And think you need to understand the meaning of gas lighting before accusing people of that.

You left out the incriminating quote and continue to try to gaslight me so I will quote you directly, again!!!!!  "He’s described as a right back, hopefully he’s an upgrade on Debrah" Now honestly I don't care if he is a rwb or a rb that's semantics and seems to depend which article you read perhaps he can play either way, I don't care, I simply asked you how he is an upgrade on debrah who is a centre back. You still haven't answered that question. I certainly don't have an obsession but in your arrogance you chose completely the wrong tack with me because one thing is for sure sunshine if you keep calling me stupid Im not going to be dropping anything.

Looking at his career, he’s a home bird and moved from teams he was doing well at, to be closer to home - cancelled contracts to do so. Would seem like a huge risk, even if there is any truth in the rumour. No experience beyond Irish football.

I can't see that being true. £250k for a 27 year-old who appears to be a bit of a journeyman in the Irish Leagues - really?

Can you two please find a private chat room somewhere 🙏 

On the Irish defender - I'm pretty sure it's a made up rumour. It hasn't come from a reliable source.

Yep. I don't believe any rumour until @RetiredAgent69 tweets it out to his 74 followers.

I wonder where James Plant fits in with Moore's plans.

Seems to have played wingback at Yeovil, and did well, but we're stacked in that position.

I'd like to see him given a chance upfront in his natural position. He's still only 20.

I like him. Works hard. Physically good. Has pace.

Sadly for him I think previous management teams have ruined him for us and I cant really see where he fits in now,I would of loved to see him progress with us as he was highly rated at one time.

Now they have been taken over maybe a move to Yeovil will come in and imo that could be the best for both parties,one things for sure if he does move on he has never let us down when played out of position and never moaned about it,so i would wish him all the best.

Maybe this all all just ballcocks and he will stay and rip League One a new one 🙂

If he had been 22 say then i might have gone with it as a gamble but as you say not at 27 BUT it is nice to have a rumour out there

Best file it next to those "Liam Brazier to Borussia Dortmund" rumours then... :whistling:

Please does anyone have a rumour, a speculation or even a deranged fantasy about our next incoming talent?

Player, or management team, or both?

It is ridiculous. It wouldn’t be some punt either. 250k is half our all time transfer fee of 500k for Ainsworth many many years ago.
