Damien Duff League of Ireland bound

Said he's going to do some travelling around OZ and head home in April/May. Its fantastic news. Going to benefit the side he joins and every club in the league.

He`ll be back just in time to play for clubs in Europe.
And anyone that believes he's not good enough for our top clubs needs to have a look at these stats;
100 caps for Ireland
Over 400 games in England (mostly premier league)
2 tournaments with Ireland
Premier league winner
League cup winner
Good enough for Melbourne City to offer a lucrative contract to.

Its a pity he will be living in Dublin and be looking for a club around there. I would bite your hand off to have the man at Sligo.

I understand that. We`ve had that in Sligo, there isn't a club in the league that hasn't brought in a player with potential that hasn't delivered. But none of those players had even half the profile of Damien Duff. Keith Fahey, Stephen Mcphail, Colin Healy and Liam Miller were all Irish internationals. None of them won EPL titles. None of them were mainstays in the Irish set up.

I'm very excited about the prospect of the Duffer playing here.

If he's gonna be playing in Dublin you would imagine it's a shoot out with ourselves and rovers, I'd play him in the midfield 3!

Regardless of what the headers say, Duff (assuming his injury is not gonna finish him) can play top level LOI for at least another couple of years!

Can't play if he's constantly injured, which sadly appears to be the case.  But would be great for him to play a season or two in our League, regardless who he decides to join.  Love Duffer.

You would assume so all things considered. But it won't be about money, so Devlin and UCD could come into play. I still think his injury could the major factor in where he goes.

Even at his age now, he'd walk into any team in the league, anyone that says otherwise is off their head. Wouldn't be expecting a pacy duff, would be similar to last couple of years giggs played

He can do that course at IT Tallaght with Rovers or Blanch with HMB....
