Roy O'Donovan to Hull City - EL Record broken again

applehunter

After Alan Bennett's previous record, Reports are that Roy has completed a medical and that he will sign for Hull for £475k (c. €700,000) + Add ons.

I'm sure he will make a big impact and in the Championship and in the Irish set up next year.

it leaves City with the options of Behan and John O'Flynn as our only forwards.

On the positive side it's good that English clubs are having to pay closer to a LOI player's true valuation to get him but on the negative side there goes another one .

Cork are ****ed imo , Behan isn't up to much and O'Flynn is injury prone .

That 2005 side is a distant memory.

Good luck to Roy.

There has to be money available now to bring in players. Need right winger, 2 forwards.

Good deal at least they getting the most amount possible.

Interesting Cork have money to spend on strikers.

Good to see clubs finally getting decent money for their players.

And good see O'Donovan gone. *****.

Word has it that Cian Mackey of Monaghan United (and an intercounty footballer with Cavan) is on his way to Cork, he would more or less be a replacement for O'Donovan. He is very good with the ball at his feet, capable of beating 4 or 5 players and is seriously quick.

Saw him against Dundalk a month ago and he was Monaghan's one and only threat and the player that stood out the most on the pitch that day.

Long way from Cavan to Cork.

I presume he will be signing full time.
