Stevens isn't being loaned back. Rather, he's agreed to sign for Villa in January. He'll be a Rovers player until then. That's according to Dan McDonnell on Twitter anyway.

Could well be the case. Probably less hassle to sign a pre-contract than to sign him and loan him back.

We had a similar deal with wolves on Aaron McCarey. He,trained with them during the week towards the end of our season and came home for games. Then moved over at end of season but only signed pro forms that January when he turned 18.

Mark McCadden tweeted that Rovers are looking to sign Rohan Ricketts (ex Spurs/Wolves)

And Jim Paterson (ex Dundee Utd/Motherwell). Also Kevin Long tweeted that he was on the way to Rovers to play European football. He's on loan at Accrington at the moment, so not sure if it's realistic, he did say he was getting on a flight not long after, although it looked like he was having a joke with Padraig Amond initially.

Just had a look at Rickett's wiki. Some fall through the leagues there. From a semi regular with Spurs through MLS and Moldova to the German regional leagues

Nobody's necessarily going anywhere. The club is going to have 6 more games this season, 7 including the replay in Belfield and possibly more if we win that game. Add in the increased likelihood of injuries in European football and you're going to need a few extra heads.

Don Cowan signed for Stevenage. Undisclosed fee, haven't heard any rough figures yet.

Foster is a very very poor manager considering the squad.
Get bucko in there next season anf you'll do well .

I think Foster's done well considering the constraints he's been under. He's brought through a few good young players (partly out of necessity), Kearns was an inspired signing and he seems to have gotten the best out of Quigley.

No doubt Foster has his flaws, but to be honest I think he has done a decent job here. At the start of the season he went for quality over quantity, which was probably a mistake. But no other club has had the same amount of injuries we had. All season our squad was done to its bare bones and we rarely filled the bench.

Guinney

I blame the pitch.

I use to be the biggest fan of the pitch but now I'm not so sure. Yes its great as it brings extra revenue into the club by renting it out and the pitch can withstand the weather (rain) better than the grass pitches. But is it just coincidence that the team with the synthetic pitch has the most amount of injuries. Also from talking to any of the Dundalk players most say that they hate playing on it and the bounce of the ball is different than on grass.

I was only joking, but fair enough.

The photos of 4G pitches look ok, but has anyone ever actually seen one in the flesh, so to speak? Or played on one?

My junior club has a 3G training facility, and whilst its grand for training on in bleak mid-winter, I wouldn't want to play a proper game on it.

The indo today saying Brighton want to buy lafferty from derry. I know he played under 21 for the north would he be able/interested in playing for the republic? Also says they want to take mcloughlin and McEleney on trial. I have been very impressed when seen McEleney looks like he technically has the ability to play top level. What do derry regulars think?
