I hear that Sives is going back to Scotland for non-football reasons and with Oman now out with a hamstring, this has prompted an emergency search by Rovers for a centre half( or two).

I like Madden but he is too like Fagan, makes good runs but needs 3 or 4 chances to get a goal. We need a Twigg North or Byrne type player if we want to challenge for the league or just Fagan to start scoring more.

Owen Hargreaves spotted in Longford Shopping Centre after a medical in Flancare.

Steven Beattie a striker who played with Kentucky college meant to be signing for us.

Barry Conlon was training with us a while back but don't think anything will happen there.
Anto Flood was rumoured to be signing with us about 2 months ago, but think it will just remain a rumour and Pats would be a much likely destination.

Was Fagan supposed to be a good striker, so why are Pats still looking. A very average player any time I saw him, while the too other lads from that team Fenlon had at Bohs last year may be better, but there is nothing special about them.

Why did the move of the two Moscow (CSK) lads to Limerick at start of the year not work out ? I went to Terryland on a cold night especially to see them in a friendly against Sligo.

Too much of their wages would have needed to be paid and it wasn't seen to be worth it. Maybe it would have been a different story if we were in the premier.

the whole thing was just about publicity for Limerick and they never had any intention to sign them. If they did they wouldnt have announced it until they signed them

Possibly. Just going by the general line that was going around at the time.

Fagan's been good for us, but the only other 2 strikesr at the club (Dean Kelly and stephen O'Flynn) have both missed loads of games already due to injuries and suspension. Ian daly isn't the answer so its generally recognised that Pats could do with another striker.

Whether either of the two rumoured are the answers, I wouldn't know...

El-P, you haven't a bulls notion what he's on, I have a fair idea what he's on, there will be no debate on it from my end. Suffice to say I get the impression from your posts somebodies been telling you exaggerations. Shame on them on say.

That scoop you have above (aside from being pretty common knowledge and having been discussed on here by people at the time of his move) is a brilliant thing the club can offer to players thanks to our billionaire owner. It provides security almost unheard of in this league and is the main reason we can compete for these players, not to mention the main (only) reason Dan Murray and Colin Healy were beating a path to our door before having to settle for Cork.

Limerick will be releasing 5 or 6 in the window and bringing in 2 or 3.

When we lose to Longford there could be major changes.

There, I contributed. :)

We'll be back, momentum is gathering to have a team that actually represents Galway next year. See http://www.galwaysoccer.com/

I've no problem at all admitting that I called it wrong, hold my hands up. I was genuinely delighted when he signed for us. Totally and utterly wrong though, he is finished, hopefully he stays on the bench for the rest of the season cos we've been doing better since he sat on it.

I always rated him and was sad to see Dan go, I know he was slow but he read the game well and was a good footballer, thats why we signed him from Cork... he took a fair bit of stick from certain Rovers fans, but we won the league twice with him...Gartland hasn't proved to be an adequate replacement. Sad to hear Dan hasn't been great for Cork this season.

Im confident people are being far too quick to write Dan off.

Let's hope so, have my doubts though.

Just on Shamrock Rovers defensive situation, if the rumours about Pat Sullivan returning to them are true it will be a massive, massive signing for them. Could almost be the difference between winning the league or not, Sully is that good a player.

its not even that he's that good (and he's good BTW), its that the others are sooo bad

Exactly. He would help, no doubt, but a defence is made up of 5 players. atm I dont think any of the Shams back 5 would make it into our starting 5. Which is unbelivable situation for them to be in tbh.

I think Anto Flood and Paddy Madden would be great signings for Pats. Flood showed at Galway what hes capable of while Madden scored quite a few in his last season with Bohs and had he taken more of his chances he would have had quite a tally. Combine that with the fact hes coached professionally in England and played at a higher level he surely must be an improved player.

Madden also has a year left on his contract with Carlisle so not sure how true that rumour is.
