Very good second half to the season and has bags of potential. Good signing for Waterford, although I thought they were pretty strong in midfield ?

I thought Lunney was staying at bohs so the move is a hell of a surprise. akinade move didnt work out last year though

Long would have liked him (Lunney) to stay, developed in leaps and bounds as season went on but a few bob at Waterford beyond what we can match. Akinade was again hit by injuries this year, almost unmarkable when on his game but never a consistent goal scorer. still very much unfulfilled potential

His miss against Limerick was textbook Akinade! Lucky they went onto win comfortably or he would have been under the spotlight with all the unusual betting

Dan Casey to City on a two year deal.

he is a really good player , was a standout rugby player in Leinster Schools Rugby for CBC Monkstown as well so the Agricultural style will suit him down there :)
Phenomenal pace always thought he should be a winger rather than a full back

Yeah, not a dig at Cork at all but I think Casey will do a lot better down there than he would at a Dundalk. He's a bit limited (allowable for a centre half, granted) but a very good presence physically and covers ground well.

Has to be at least a couple of defenders out of Cork going off this? Barry still has a year left I think but will surely move on. Saw McLoughlin getting linked to England earlier. Bennett retiring maybe?

If Morris is off to Shels it makes a few departures from Bohs already too, though if their under 19s are always as frankly annoyingly good as they were against us they should just play them every week and forget about senior players anyway.

McLoughlin is linked with a move away but he finishes his degree this summer so it would be strange for him not to wait. Will have to wait and see.
I think Barry will move on, he hasn't played and it doesn't suit him or the club at the moment.
Benno could retire but I think he will give us one more year.
Delaney has a year left too but like Barry the situation doesn't really suit anyone.

We also have Conor McCarthy who can play at right back but is really a centre half. Only 20 years old.

Dan Byrne on twitter says he's left Bohs too.

Bohs have lost 3 of their 4 centre backs in the space of the last 2 hours or so...

Lots leaving Bohs. You might say its an Exodus (movement of jah people)

Dan Byrne going to Shels apparently.

Bennett could play another year, he is certainly fit for another year and its hard to replace that type of player. Would be handy to have about if young lads come in. Delaney hasnt worked and should be happy to walk away from the 2nd year of his deal if as said when he signed it wasnt for money. I think I mentioned McNamee's reaction to Caulfield on Sunday and it didnt look good so he has to leave for boths sides sake. McCormack 'rumoured' to be on the move according to a lot of Cork fans, he is one of the top earners Id say so might be wanted off the wage bill and is replaceable I feel albeit he was very good on Sunday. Cummins getting left out on Cup Final day, divisive among the Cork support and has been a disappintment, unless there isnt a better striker that can be brought in he could be looking for a new club.

El-Pietro

06/11/2018, 3:55 PM

McNamee is definitely leaving. I had hoped we might be able to get Bolger back and would gladly swap him for McCormack but that is not an option now. I still think McCormack is a good player but Bolger would have offered us something we missed badly this year.

Bennett, Barry, Delaney and Cummins are under contract and are all in a strong negotiating position should Cork wish to move them out

Benno and Cummins won't be going anywhere. I'd be surprised if Barry and Delaney started the season with us.

I think that's a manager and 8 outfield players Shels have signed directly from Bohs.

The new Dalymount (whenever) will play host to two clubs - Bohs and Bohs B 😁

Never mind that, rumour has it Dalymount will soon be no more and Bohs will end up playing in Marley Park....

Sean McLoughlin being chased by Doncaster according to Dan McDonnell in the indo (https://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/league-of-ireland/doncaster-eye-up-move-for-highlyrated-cork-defender-mcloughlin-37496495.html).

Garry Comerford to City from Waterford.

Granted some will leave Cork, but how many central defenders are currently at the club now?

Are they buying players they dont even need ;)

Incidently if McLoughlin stays, and he's paired with Comerford, they wont have happy memories of playing in oriel park next season, both were the unfortunate victims of crucial own goals in the final minute v Dundalk this year, both resulted in crucial wins too.

To be fair both knew nothing about either goal, last ditch attempts to clear the ball.

In the press release it sounds like hes been signed to play wide left or left back. I think hes a squad player.

This signing is to address our problem at left back IMO. I actually think he'll go straight in there. He was superb against us in our first game this season at the RSC.

What's the craic with Johnny Dunleavy? Is he leaving,he had a falling out with Caufield didn't he?

No idea of any falling out but hes been injured for about three seasons now. He has come back before for short spells before getting injured again. I love the man to bits but I don't think we can justify giving him a further year and hope he returns to fitness given our reduced budget. When fit hes top quality, its just that hes rarely fit for any extended period.

He's off to America. We knew it was going to happen but it's sad to see him go. One of my all time favourite city players, couldn't fault him for attitude, commitment and effort.

Comerford signed for us as a midfielder and was converted into a left full. I�d be shocked if he�s starting centre half for Cork. I�m even more shocked to hear Caulfield mention him playing left midfield this season 😳😳😳

Dan Casey and Gary Comerford are a pair of smart signings. Casey is likely to be an automatic choice at centre back and Comerford should challenge Shane Griffin for left back

I think if I was a player in his shoes I'd definitely pick the US option over say league 1 in uk. Playing at the second tier on the US is not bad at all, decent climate too if you join one of the sides in the southern states. No brainier to me, best of luck to him, decent player.

Beatties 6wytier goodbye has City fans in bits. He's a good footballer, but he's 10 times the leager/character you want around. Would run through a wall for you without a second thought. He's become a legend down here, and will be sorely missed.

Caulfield today referred to Comerford as playing left midfield 😳

micls

07/11/2018, 9:20 PM

Positions mean nothing to Caulfield. He likes players that can play roughly 6 positions. Just ask Jimmy Keohane. He thought he was a central midfielder. He's played centre mid, right back, right wing, no. 10 and even up front that one really weird time.

Is Griffin that bad? I know he made the mistake in the cup final but anytime I've seen him (which obviously isn't an awful lot) he looks very tidy and has the physicality to mix it with any attacking player. I'd say he's one of the best full-backs in the league but apparently people can't say that anymore!

Easily top 20 in the league
