Is he still with you? Do you have players under contract??

We have Paddy Madden who is highly rated. Brian McCarthy could turn into a good player too with a bit of work.

They'll get plenty of playing time next season anyway.

He signed for our first team (or at least is due to)

You may mean Emeka Onwubiko. He was born in Nigeria and his Naturalisation application was succesful a year or two ago.

Saw him at a Bray -UCD 'A' game during the summer. Not great, but Bray were pinned in their own half for most of the game.

afaik he has been released from bray....
dont think he got on with eddie at all so something had to give...

we have several young lads prob going to make the break through next season. some played in sligo on the last game of the season, coughlan and dane massey will be very good for us.

Jonathan Spillane with Cobh reserves and under 20's
good striker very trong and fast, saw on the paper he played 7 games with under 20's scored 10 goals. plus scored a few with the reserves

Brian McCarthy is the single worst defender that ever graced Colemans Park! He was shocking when we had him. Worst loan signing ever. The night in turners cross when we lost he was the problem for a lot of the goals. Wasn't bad in first with Athlone but not good enough for prem.

Looked pretty poor the one time I saw him play, Jake Kelly looks a better prospect
