Bohs signed Polish right back Bartlomiej Kukulowicz. Should be straight into the squad for tomorrow.
Glad to see that one done. Seemed to be doing the rounds for a while.

he has improved a lot since 2021, hes after getting a lot bigger aswell. top msl player last year, he was unplayable.
Correct, it must also be said that Barrett never gave him a run in the team,preferring O Hanlon despite the obvious fitness issues attitude and lack of goals.

Probably for the best, he had a poor start to the season and didn't look like he was going to get back as a starter.

Huge amount of movement today. The big difference with this time last year is the lack of movement of players to England so far.
Setting up a competitive end of season.

He could barely get in a poor LTFC team not sure what he'll add to UCD.

Given what happened his brother at Longford it was a surprise that he stayed.

While I don't know the details of any of that yeah it never looked like something that would work out well.

Partick fan I know said about Mullen:
"Never really got off the bench with us. He has a good shot/finish in him but he does need service tbh. He's OK but was consistently 3rd/4th choice with us..."
We won't be providing him with service, so no point in that signing. Higgins may as well play me as a striker. I wouldn't get a touch of the ball either, but I'd be cheap.
On the basis of his figures and apparent performances in the Scottish Championship it is an uninspiring signing to say the least. Maybe he is the next Gary Twigg.

Even I as a Bohs supporter wouldn’t think he was overrated. He was very prolific for Rovers. Granted he wasn’t up to much in Europe.

Part timer suited to Portadown. Was the standard of LoI really that bad circa 2012?!?

Shels becoming Hull 23s in full swing already.
You’re not far off at all with this comment. Duff is no longer in charge of signing players according to the man himself. The board are in his head

As long as he’s not told who to pick or what formation to play it should be ok, but I can’t see Duff putting up with anyone looking over his shoulder for too long. My money is on some Turkish youth coach at hill as their next manager.
LOL.

With all the young fans, people wanting to blog etc coming into the league there's definitely been an increase in speculative transfer nonsense. Haven't seen anything concrete or credible about Grant at all yet people are losing their minds over him apparently signing for us while quoting exact figures of offers he's gotten from several clubs.

Pats out spending everyone, it's their league to lose at this stage. Poor auld Rovers with the 4th biggest budget haven't a chance

He was with Bray after leaving Longford last season, bit of googling indicates he was most recently with Lucan in LSL

Kerry reportedly competing with UCD and Wexford for the services of Lee Axworthy, a 22-year-old keeper once on Brentford's books, and who has family connections to the county.

A less than impressive CV. Has been bouncing between step 8 and step 10 of the English system, four to six divisions below EFL, with 48 appearances at 8 different clubs since 2019, including, strangely, 5 different clubs over the course of 2022/23.
I had been iffy about Harps signing one or two lads from step 6, but at least they were supposedly standout players in those teams rather than largely a bench-warming second choice keeper.

The club's press releases this season can be a little misleading at times but I thought the lower end of the Harps signings came from Level 8, which is Step 4 (Leek Town etc.)?
Level 11 is Step 6. I didn't know there even was a Step 8 tbh.
Todd is a good signing for Derry, albeit probably not where they need help.

Went on loan from Longford to Galway in 2021. Signed for Treaty in 2022 and was gone by the summer before joining Bray.
He is a woejus player.

Cityu signed Rokas Stanulevi?ius yesterday, Lithuanian midfielder. No idea if hes any good. More importantly, Ruairi Keating has just signed a new "long term contract", the club have not said how long for though but that puts an end to the Derry rumors. Delighted, hes my favourite city player since Sean Maguire and I don't think im alone in that fan club.

Looks like Danny Grant is more likely to join Bohs now, who knows at this stage though.

I'm presumbly mixing step and level here. I just meant the level on the football ladder they were. I also had one of the new Harps recruits trying to explain the different 'step' levels in England and it totally flew over my head.

He got himself into bother when he signed for some club in NI, I forget which, and the fans didn't take too kindly to some pro IRA social media posts from his past. They cancelled his contract as far as I can recall.

Portadown. That was between him leaving Galway and signing for Treaty!
