Hopefully that helps. Anyway, playing good football by all accounts and an ever-present, be surprised if he didn't make a move in the Summer.

Why was my post removed? There was no pun it at all! I merely suggested he isn't scoring enough. Ridiculous. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.

Not sure if he will ever get his game to the next level but hope I am wrong . Now same could be said about the lads at Preston , sort of a change of manager and things are not looking as good as they were . ------------- Lansdowne Road debut aged 52 and 201 days . |

He very much seems to be a home bird. You have to remember that he dropped straight into Bluebell United when he came home from Scotland first when there was still interest there in him. He was far too good for the LOI but I wonder will he ever settle in England to fulfil his potential there. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.

He seems to be enjoying life now from what I've seen/read. Still on Brighton's books who wouldn't be keeping him around if they didn't see something, certainly an upper level championship standard in him I'd imagine/hope.

| Was convinced Towell would be an international one day when he was with Dundalk but not so sure anymore. Does seem to be doing well in League One and could end up playing Championship football next season if someone comes in for him, but there is a lot of competition for midfield places and as we've seen this year with Hourihane and Browne, even playing well in the championship every week doesn't guarantee you a place in the squad for that position. |

Never convinced he could step up. Always thought his conditioning in LOI gave him a big advantage that he wouldn't have in England. LOI has improved in that regard in last 2/3 years as more clubs go back full time but when he was doing it here a lot were still part time. ------------- It's not me it's you:-) |

| Forde starts for Rotherham, so might still be worth a watch. From their Irish contingent only Burke makes the PNE starting line-up. Brown and Maguire are on the bench. |

The rules are much stricter in League 2, that is there are actually rules! It used to be 55%, I think it might have gone up to 60%, in line with League 1.

Ways around that surely - didn't city count their owner money as revenue generated by putting it through Etihad? I doubt Towell would drop two divisions from where he was playing regularly if it wasn't a very generous offer ------------- No thank you Turkish......I'm sweet enough |

How did he do this season with Rotherham? He can't have had many offers in the Championship if he has moved to Salford. Must have been offered more with Salford than he would have earned in L1. ------------- Jimmy Bullard - "Favorite band? Elastic." |

Of course, look at the other non-league hobby clubs in the league like FGR and Fleetwood Town, but I don’t think he will be on the same as Rooney, for example.

The social media figure for his wages at Salford is 8k, given that people love to exaggerate these things, f**k knows why, I would imagine it is less. In other words, there isn’t a f**king hope Rotherham offered him that. Salford do look like they will be bending the rules as much as possible though. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.

He was surely on 5-6K a week at Brighton, so I would imagine he's on 8-10K at Salford. If it's true that Rotherham offered him around the same but he chose to drop down another division anyway, it doesn't say much for his ambition. Didn't he say when he first moved to Brighton that he had other offers but "wouldn't play below Championship level"... ------------- We're decent enough.. |

| Didnt adam rooney rubbish that 5 grand figure when it came out. Id say there was no chance rotherham offered him 10 grand. Not a hope in hell. They may well go up this season. You would think he would have got some offers but maybe not. |

| It was said on a BT Sports show a couple of weeks back that Rooney was on £4k. It seems easier to be promoted out of League 2 than to be promoted from the National League so my guess is Towell is on around £4-5k with a pay-rise if they get promoted. They're throwing crazy money around for a club of their size. I also heard they bought Rory Gaffney a gaff! |

Agree with the 1st part of your post. I think Salford will go straight up again. I don't know much about Richie but he seems like a flash f**ker in his social media accounts. Salford do have a good project going and will probably be in championship in 3 years. Would that be good for him? I'm not sure, he would be 30. He played loads this year so you would imagine a low end championship team would come in for him or top end L1. Strange move.

Is Adam Rooney still there? Was only wondering as it'd be sweet to see them buy a few more Irish lads that could bring them up the leagues Horgan Boyle Byrne Clarke Masterson Maybe a few of the young lads like O'Connor, O'Hara etc on Loan Ah a dream

I'm not very imaginative Would be great to see an 'Irish' team moving up the leagues, would be good for the team support as would have a full stadium every game That's it. If I win the Euro Millions Friday I'm taking over

On this move and that of Adam Rooney aswell. Would £4k - £5k a week be more than what a Championship team or Scottish PL team could offer??? ------------- To alcohol!!!! The cause of and solution to all lifes problems. |

im sure it would depend on the team and the player. Towell may not have had any offers from the championship. celtic/rangers and maybe aberdeen would pay that for the right payer. celtic/rangers obvisouly.

Do you mean Scottish Champoionship or English? It is a lot more than most Scottish teams could afford, apart from the obvious, and if he is getting anything around 5k he will comfortably be the highest paid player in League 2. ------------- Greed has won, big finance has won.
