I've been reading recently about the Humberside Teleportation Institute's latest invention, sponsored by the UK's most fattening and pasty-size-shrinking chain. If Cork has a number of Greggs stores, one with a baker's oven with rematerialisation settings and an exit with specially-designed de-puff-pastry shampoo splurtings, then that could heavily influence Brian's decision.

Until last year they were known as South Humberside Institute for Teleportation but had to change their name because airport passengers were confusing it with South Humberside International Terminal on their sat-navs.

I presume someone else has raised the geographical advantage Hull also have? It's a lot bloody easier to pop back to Ireland from Hull than it is Brighton. He's no longer a teenager but it may be factor.

its a bit easier. but there is daily flights from cork to east midlands. 1 hour from Hull

Price cap on compensation level from championship suggested at EUR 160k. Any cap on price from Premier league? (Source: Argus equivalent....). Might be more relevant than airport location :lolol:

Those figures are barely relevant at all, surely? Those are the compensation figures that Cork are entitled to if he walks away in the summer when he's out of contract. They do not dictate what a club is allowed to buy him for with a year of his contract left.

So are we buying him with the view to loan him straight back to them?

You reckon the Argus are always right?

You never know, always a first time!

Mattywerewolf · Aug 21, 2014

You might be right but tweet was as below. Again might be dodgy sauce....Perhaps they've misread. couldn't find specifics anywhere else.

Fee from Brighton is being reported on @Corks96FM as €200,000 - that can't be correct as maximum CCFC can get now through compo is €160,000.

Other sources are stating it's based on appearances and other add-ons.

Cork City Football Club can confirm that the club has received an offer for our player, Brian Lenihan, which has been accepted.

The club will not be making any further comment on the matter at this time, and the focus of our management and players is fully on Friday night’s FAI Ford Cup tie against Bohemians at Turner’s Cross.

Hmm.. Interesting, Didn't think we could beat off the premier opposition on this one!.

No, because they keep stating tomorrow will be his last game for the club. That, to me, sounds like it includes loans. And of course it would be RIDICULOUS thing to do by us!

Maybe we haven't yet. You just know what'll happen now that Andy Naylor's put the kiss of death on it.

@corkcityfcnews
Confirmation from @CorkCityFC that they have accepted a bid for Brian Lenihan. The club involved is Brighton. #bhafc #CCFC84

Mattywerewolf · Aug 21, 2014

That was my dodgy sauce, you're quoting from! Very odd that a deal has been accepted but the 2 clubs involved are not talking about it....Personal terms perhaps...

Hope we can get this one over the line. Having had a bit of a read up on the fella, it seems that he has the potential to become a very good player.

Fingers crossed.
