I thought he could never play footie again because of a serious of injuries ??????

He has signed for Bray and played in our firendly againist Shels yesterday, looked very sharp !

Any thoughts on him as a player ? only seen him a few times

What the...?!?!

He was a class player, worked fairly hard and had great vision. Only with us two years, and was injured for half that, but was top scorer in the first season with seven.

Retired from football while with Millwall a year or so ago; think he was playing with Pegasus (our graduate team) in the LSL occasionally.

Will make the upcoming Bray games a bit more interesting!

Why is he playing for Bray? He'd be perfect for us in midfield, just what we're short of.

Match report in the Irish Times today about the Bray game - mentioned Kevin Grogan as being an outstanding prospect who had Bray's only real chance of the game.

Sounds like he's back to a bit of form; would be a right kick in the teeth if he were to trip us up this season. Ciarán Martyn again, anyone?:(

He was great last night ! really impressed with the 2 games he's playe for us so far ! Eamon Who ? lol - only kidden Eamo, we still love ya !

He showed some superb touches and made one sublime run where he best about 4 or 5 everton defenders ! Should have done a lot better with his chance though, Tresson had our best chance, went clean through the centre of the Everton defence but Wright made a smart stop, rebounded to Grogan and blasted high and wide !

Hopefully he can stay injury free, and if he plays half as good as he did last night well be ok this season, cant wait for the fixtures now !

Fair play to everyone who turned up, was much appricated by us. We put on a pretty good show with 24 hours notice !
