    I remember Reading brought Kevin Doyle from this team...he didn't turn out to be too bad.

    Is this website a good reliable site I wonder?

    It's good that we are scouting for these promising players.

    Will he get a trial do you think or we will buy him straight away.

    He can play on the the right wing and up front it seems and considering he only £450,000 might be worth a punt.

    He also scored 20 goals

    I'm not really 'down' with the exchange rate. How much 500,000 euros?

    Seems a bit steep for a player who would be something of a punt. 500,000 EUR is about £345.

    £345! Snap him up now. That's a bargain

    Watford boss Aidy Boothroyd is reportedly in the race to sign Republic of Ireland Under 21 striker Roy O'Donovan.

    With Boothroyd (pictured) looking on during a scouting trip to Ireland, the Cork City man, 21, scored once and hit the post in his side's 2-0 win over Waterford United on Tuesday.

    And as O'Donovan's contract is due to expire at the end of the season, there are rumours he may be available for a cut-price €500,000 (£330,000).

    However, Watford would face competition from several sides should they firm up their interest in the youngster.

    Nottingham Forest manager Colin Calderwood has apparently been trailing O'Donovan for almost a year and is believed to be ready to make his move next week.

    Hull and Fulham have also been linked with a move for the player, who has scored 20 goals in four months for Cork so far this season.

    Do Cork City have a forum?

    Maybe you can ask how good he is on there if they do, and how he compares to Doyle?

    I spoke to a couple of people in my office who watch Eircom games and they said he's good in Eircom League - Cork seem to have a good youth system.

    ...Bear in mind the Eircom Premier Division is our equivalent to the British Gas Premier Division.

    We have to be a more attractive option than Hull and Forest, don't we?

    our premier division is about the equivilant to the top of league 2/bottom league 1 teams.

    i attend irish league games most weeks and know a bit about the player. not too sure whether he'd be up to the task but a tril at the v least should be offered.

    NOT SO GOOD:

    Former Coventry City trainee Roy O'Donovan is the subject of two confirmed offers, from Fulham and Southend, as well as interest from Nottingham Forest, Watford and Southend.

    The 22-year-old returned to his homeland after his release by the Sky Blues and a short spell with Cheltenham to join Cork City.

    He has netted 20 goals to date this season.


    At lunchtime I spoke to a guy here, he said Roy is a good player in Eircom. Has a good touch but said it's had to compare. He said it's good to catch them when young but avoid once over 25.

    To be hoenst I would say we have enough when it comes to youngsters with potential but ...
