    The former general secretary of the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) revealed that Daley will be joining Bradford on a free transfer from English Premiership strugglers Charlton Athletics, to which the player currently has a contract.<P class=StoryText align=justify>"Omar has a two-year contract that he had signed with Charlton (in March 2006).

    Omar has a contract with Charlton Athletic, or Charleston Battery? Missa reporter, get it right? Charlton Athletic is an English Premire League team and Charleston BAttery is an A League team in the USA.

                Btw X I am thrilled for Daley. He really came into the A-league and from jump street mashed it up. I saw in a Charleston Paper (cannot for the life of me remember the name but it is online)that the coach said that they would need to find someone capable of replacing Daley and the T&amp;T player Glinton as they were losing their attacking prowess.

                Maybe we have a striker and outside mid/def in the NPL that could hook up with Charleston?

                Daley will be aGREAT addition to Bradford. They will have two very good attacking players on the right side who can cover alot of ground during a match. Daley and Johnson attacking down the right side will be sick.

                Now if Mo would onlyget Jermaine Hueand Khari Stephenson to linkup with Bradfordwe would haveFC Jamaica fi real.See you guys were sleeping on JB and all along he was the smartest poster on the forum. Colin Todd fi life! - T.K.

                  I thought JJ was on his way out to some Championship team? It seems as if a few Championship sides are interested in him. . .

                    actually I was referring to Audley's Angle and another fellow who has a column. Haven't seen much wrong with sickko's column.

                      Well Todd has been quoted as saying there is interest. Whether an offer is forthcoming we'll wait and see. In a way it would probably be a good thing if JJ leaves as it will give two open positions on the field for Daley to contest for increasing his playing opportunities. As well JJ's departure could open up the possibility for another Jamaican player to come in down the road.

                      If JJ was still there Daley would be battling for just one spot at the outside wingback. Not that I think Bradford has any one at right wingback to keep Daley off the field but it is always nice to be have options open for pt.

                      As for Princess she is just upset that Daley never use him english pound andfly her out to England fi catch a game when he first played for Preston. - T.K.

                        Ah...I stand corrected sir. If you and Sickko can be cordial there is hope in the middle east afterall. - T.K.

                          Daley also playson the left, Bradford really has captured two gems.
                          THERE IS ONLY ONE ONANDI LOWE!

                            Charleston Battery fan here. Yes, we are going to miss Omar bigtime. We've always had a number of Caribbean players on our roster (starting with the great Paul Young) so send us some more!!

                            BTW, anyone know if American/Battery playerLawrence Smith is still on trial with Harbour View?Don't notice him mentioned on their website anymore......
