This, remember, is the same Pat Dolan who felt Trappatoni should have Evan McMillan playing for Ireland.

Rumours in Finn Park last night that Barraclough could be gone over the mid season break with Pat Fenlon lined up to replace him.

very random that those rumours pop up at a game between harps and Longford eh? According to the evening echo down here we are being linked with John o'flynn and graham Cummins

[ATFC-1887]

Athlone have signed Derek Doyle and Thomas Mulroney. Roddy Jnr is training with us and is expected to sign too.

[CityRebel]

Cillian Morrison from UCD to Cork City

[adamd164]

That'll be two Donegal natives in our side!

Haven't seen much of him for UCD but have heard he's got potential alright.. be interested to see how he gets on with us.

You wouldn't believe the stories if I told you.

That's out of the blue.

And quite a blow for us. Decent player.

In the long grass more like!

[nigel-harps1954]

Harps signing goalkeeper Mark Anthony McGinley from UCD. Playing for Harps Reserves tonight in the ulster senior league.

Rumours that Thomas McMonagle is meant to be signing after returning from Canada too.

[Sam_Heggy]

Marc Brolly (Dungannon), Mark Anthony McGinley (UCD) and Thomas McMonagle (some canadian club) all to Harps.

Brolly is a good signing and McMonagle will add to your options but if you think your 2 current keepers are bad why on earth would anyone sign McGinley he's dirt

[pineapple stu]

That's harsh.

McGinley was without a club and is from Donegal anyway.

Shaun Patton has come in and done very well for a young lad. Im not sure if Conor Winn is leaving or if it's just a case of adding another keeper to the roster bearing in mind the Under 17's, Under 19's, USL and 1st teams are all in action over the summer.

[atfconline]

Athlone are signing left-back Stephen Dunne from Pats 19s.

John Mulroy is training with the Club again following a pre-season injury, and is expected to sign on July 1st.

Also a new 'keeper on the way, Ryan Coulter; he has been on scholarship in the US for past few years.

A few other players are being looked at.

Conor McMahon has left the Club due to work commitments.

Was a youth player with Dundalk and very well thought of. Phil Coulter's son

This must be the TOWN he loved so well.

[Eminence Grise]

Congratulations on your one-liner, Dong!

[colonelwest]

Donal McDermott played in a friendly for Dundalk there the other day, was down to play another against the army team too if I remember rightly, he's been released from Bournemouth.

Super player if he can get his head right.

[colonelwest]

From a few lads on orielweb who went he didn't look that great and/ or interested; slack passing, rarely tracked back and his fitness wasn't great. Agree 100% on what you said though, looked a good prospect coming up, it's make or break time for him at this stage in his career. If he does sign hopefully Towell or a few of the other lads rub off on him (not in that way though! :D) with regards to application, professionalism, looking after yourself etc. On that side of things I haven't seen a team of ours do that as well in manys a year, which is often underrated, it's a big part of how well we're doing since SK came in.

[adamd164]

Caulfield said there's a signing agreed already for us but can't announce til July 1st cos of transfer window... so that's probably Cillian Morrisson from UCD as rumoured. He said he's signing for us anyway himself.

[CityRebel]

John O'Flynn to return to Cork City from Exeter in League Two.

definetly? Gona give ourselves a bit of a headache with strikers so cos O'Sullivan has to start, morrisey is back fit and we just signed morrisson too

Looks like it's a done deal.

Would only be delighted to have him back

[outspoken]

Heard O'Flynn was coming back months ago so no surprise there, should only help to further boost the feel good factor around the club at the moment. Will leave Caulfield with huge selection headache though.

[cobhlad]

Any more transfer gossip? Been a bit on the quiet side

No need to worry, Croly has shown that signing all the strikers can only ever work out well.

People are over-reacting to the amount of strikers we've signed. Rafter got injured for the season during pre-season, and Elding got injured in the first game of the season and hardly featured before he was released, and now we've signed a couple of strikers in this window to replace them. We have had two fit senior strikers since about 60 minutes into the first game of the season up until the break, one of whom is making the step up from the U19s.

I was being facetious, but you have to admit O'Sullivan, Morrissey, O'Flynn and Morrison would be a difficult balancing act, especially with guys like Lehane, Kearney and Dennehy who can also play in what is basically three positions on the field.

[desaintsno.12]

surely its time for people to start speculatiing that Cork will go belly up if they don't win the league... over spending... we all know their budget etc etc

[CityRebel]

Brian Lenihan linked with Arsenal, Wigan, Everton, Bournemouth, and Aston Villa.

I wouldn't agree with that.

We have the 7th biggest budget in the league :D
