    I'd like to see him get an extended run of first team football for someone - ye obviously, as he's signed.

    He looks like a really decent player, but hasn't had anything like the amount of game time to help his development.

    Ethan Boyle signed for Harps for another year amid rumoured interest from Waterford. Young player of the year last year at Harps, he's a lad with a lot of potential.

    Barrett played in 31 games this season (very few of them substitute appearances), but has found it hard to displace Boyle and Gartland when all are fit and available.

    Even if Andy Boyle moves cross-channel it is not a certainty that Barrett would be first choice, as it is likely another centre back would be signed. The Sean Hoare rumours continue - it could be an interesting battle for places in the Dundalk defence next season

    Really? I would have guessed at about 18/20. My sense of it obviously skewed by distance/tv/etc.

    Still needs to be first choice somewhere to develop. Has all the tools.

    Don't forget Dundalk will have played over 50 matches in 2016, and Barrett played in Europe quite a lot when Gartland was injured. This is a great re-signing for Dundalk. You need quality back up in most key positions.

    Shamrock Rovers considering trying to sign "old favourite" Dave Mooney in January as per the Indo. He's under contract though so would have to come to an arrangement with Southend. Not sure he's been such a favourite of most Rovers fans since he joined us back in 2005 to be honest.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    He's been offered a contract at Derry, but so far hasn't accepted it. Sounds like he could be gone.

    Had great potential with us and a great centre back partnership with Oji. Was always a bit lost without him though. One of these players that everyone wanted but when he signed couldn't really get any real game time. Probably still has potential though. Certainly wouldn't be the first centre back to improve as he got older and matured.

    Most players tend to improve as they get older, especially towards their late 20's - Folan is only 24.

    The unkind might say that Folan could hardly get worse from his recent seasons form

    If he was to sign he'd presumably be back up to Kenna and Clancy. Two players he could learn a lot from

    Holywood. As some fans called him when he played in the Showgrounds. Has the build and the walk of a good CB. But when it gets down to it he's a liability. Expect plenty of long cross field balls even when a midfielder is 10 yards away from him.
    Manager: Fergal, have you your boots with ya?
    Fergal: Ya, I have them here.
    Manager: Ah good stuff, well give them to this man so, he forgot his!

  20. Thanks From:

    The good times must be back. Bray refusing to negotiate with Dundalk and a bidding war over Sean Hoare.
