Hard to know if we'll retain him or not. He was very hit and miss with us, very inconsistent. He's still young though so I'm not discounting him yet.

Ya was a bit hit and miss with us in his last season but he has a lot of good things about his game. The type of player that just needs to find the right position. Great attitude as well. Would be great to see him in a midfield with 2 of Duggan, lynch, O'Connor.

Dave O'Leary would be a great addition to a FD side, not so sure about the top tier.

Sorry guys, over excited with the news.

Apparently a three year deal, pursuant to the club getting promoted next season. Wonder what his wages are?

Probably high, but if signings like him help get us up and bring in a few hundred more people through the gate then it's worth every penny.

Wonderful stuff from the club to get him signed up and get it done so soon with some of the big boys after him is superb work. Eddie Hickey has a hue hand in it I am told so thats this one and Freddy Hall that Eddie was pivotal in top man.

Would be delighted to sign both the lads.

Clarke is on holidays so will be a while yet before we know if the club can hold onto him.

I'd be surprised if Tommy Dunne let Shanahan go as he has been an ever present in our team since Dunne took over. I know he's a Limerick lad and that but I think Tommy would like to keep him. Unless Limerick give him a better offer than we do.

Seen it hasn't been mentioned yet Mike Aherne sasying on Twitter yesterday more good news to come in next few days.

In relation to potential investment, are there any details yet about what Pat mentioned at half time (I think in the Derry game) where he said something along the lines of potential investment in the club even if we were relegated and a 3 to 5 year plan and that details would be disclosed within approximately 1 month ? could he have meant investment in players which is what we are currently seeing or would it have to do with off field investment....

I reckon it's overall investment in the club, not just a specific area like players.

Ya no mention yet of it anyway. Surely something when the current business of signings dies down.

Limerick fc just comfirmed the signing of winger Chris Mulhall from UCD.

Any good?

Decent player, has been a thorn in our side on a few occasions with plenty of experience in the first division.

I reckon a few will. I think 3 or 4 are on holidays but returning soon. If we signed another 3 players before Christmas then it would be fantastic business done.
