Very good young player from Cliftonville, the 'Catholic' team in Belfast.

I see now that one championship team has made a firm bid for him. There's a 1 in 24 chance it is us.

In seriousness, I have seen him before in action, and I think he has bags of potential - starting to deliver the quality this season, with a few massive goals against the likes of Linfield

We'll see

The lad is on fire at the moment - looks good with the ball at his feet and is good in the air.
Could be Irelands answer to Jordan Rhodes ;)

I believe Swansea are after him as well, I'm sure I seen it somewhere where Brendon Rodgers flew over to N.Ireland to see him play.

I heard rumours they were ready to break the bank in January.



Then i saw the £100,000 they were offering for this guy and it all made sense.

Isn't their £100k bid being looked over by their board. I think we missed out on him (if we were ever in for him in the first place).
He's certainly the type Malky likes.
I don't think he's a nuisance either.
Malky likes em to be pro's.
That's why he left nice prick go to Blackburn (plus nice prick was 2 million!)

Firstly, it's not even the same league so the fact you're getting 2 seperate uefa domestic leagues messed up raises concerns over your ability to comment.

Secondly:
Kevin Doyle
Keith Fahey
Seamus Coleman
Stephen Ward
Shane Long
(Just 5 for you)

and going back even further
Roy Keane
Paul McGrath
