Niche Cache mentioned this as a rumour earlier this week. Note a Dundee United team mate has already signed there.

Yes he hasn't done much lately. Got injured at an unfortunate time at promoted DU, and that really cost him his chance of making the move there permanent.

Get the feeling AFC are after higher quality strikers than Greive. 

To give him credit he did have 2-3 seasons in the SPL (8 goals in total), coming straight from NZ domestic football. Never easy. But he's small, without real blinding pace. I imagine he'll be trying to catch the attention of English L1/L2 clubs from Ireland. He'll need to score consistently there like Mata did, to do that.

League of Ireland beginning to feel like some weird purgatory for All Whites talents. Still a contract in Europe is a contract in Europe.
And its still a 'professional' league right? 
Quick google says average pay is 40,000 euros - so a living to get to play the game you love, and stay in europe for that 'one' scout to find you if you perform.

He'd probably be on better money coming home to NZ and playing in the Northern League. League of Ireland isn't much better then that. Obviously AFC and the Nix both feel he's not good enough for the A League though.

This is quite a disappointing move especially from the spl. Let's hope he scores a truck load of goals and goes back to a decent league.

A 2-0 loss to start off with for Alex at Bohemians, came on in the 63rd minute against Silgo Rovers. Pijnaker provided the assist for Rover's second goal at the very end.
