4 players re-sign

[max power]

just got a text alert, barry, alan murphy sean dillon and digger have all signed new contracts with the club, thats good news, all we need is. brian mcgovern to sign to keep the back 5 in place

well done to the board for keepin the players at the club

[Xlex]

you absolute pr!ck...... I read that as 4 player have resigned....


not to worry, I'll let you off the hook as long as they have re-signed.... ;)

[max power]

i know i only noticed that after i wrote it, thats the way i recieved the text !!!! ah but if it made you look twice it was worth it !!

[Xlex]

it made my stomach drop.... I mentioned to Barry on Sunday, that we needed him to sign a new contract and he said we'll see... fcuking worried I was too....

[Macy]

Thought McGovern was in the bag anyway, with the "loan" only because he couldn't sign for another eL club in the same season or some stupid rule like that.....

[Xlex]

pretty sure of that one too...

[Longfordian]

As far as i've heard he's signing for two years as soon as he can..January someone said..Seems to be in the bag alright

[max power]

yeah that was in an interview he did before the cup final, having the same back 5 two seasons in a row would be a great asset to the club, just bring darragh round the back and put a bullet in him and sign a decent midfielder and i'll be happy, martyn from derry would be ideal, he scores from midfield as well as gettin the tackles in too

i got another text this morning saying alan wants brian byrne to re sign ( the gap is for you xlex ) and that he would like to sign john martin from ucd

[Xlex]

The club are being very informative, hope they are not trying to flog the text service... :D, It's nice to be kept informed but there is some lad on the Shels Forum claiming Barry is signing with them.

[Longfordian]

Ah sure you'll always have rumours..Barry had agreed a new deal weeks ago so i cant see him leaving. I heard he bought about ten Longford jerseys recently for all his family. Doesn't seem like the actions of someone planning on signing for someone else.Would be nice to know where the text service gets their information alright, must be from some of the reporters that Alan talks to regularly..Garry Doyle or someone like that

[Xlex]

I was under the pretense that the text service information was provided by LTFC, and we got a slice of the money...

The town wouldn't advertuise it if it wasn't official...

[max power]

well said xlex, we had a debate about this before and the price of the texts, i would stop getting them if the texts were not fact from the club, amazing that they had ger robinson as the scorer of the goal in the shels game and so did aertel, any link there i wonder ????

the text message had...

ffs.. we need clarification of wheither these texts are official or not and if the club gets a cut?

[max power]

yeah the text message did, i was on the beer in town and thought i had too much to drink when i got the text so i rang home and they said that aertel said the same thing

[Longfordian]

Well im told they dont ask the club for any info unless its through Alan. But we do get a very small amount off them every quarter apparently..Seemingly the last amount was 34 euro

[Xlex]

which is why the information should be official... now I have to take it with a pinch of salt...

[Longfordian]

Well the only two people that know the ins and outs of players situations are Alan and Jim Hanley so maybe its coming from them, more than likely its from Alan..i dont know for sure though
