[Dodge]

Pats
In
- Brian Mcgovern - Norwich

Out
- Philip Hughes - Kildare County

- Ger McCarthy - Shels

[Xlex]

Micheal Dempsey came from Dundalk... he was with bohs the season before last....

[UCD_4_Life]

Bohs haven't completed the Robbie Doyle move yet.

Clive Delaney is in London on trial with West Ham as far as I know. If there is a deal happening with Bohs that hasn't been completed either.

[Gary]

They would be 2 huge signings for Bohs. I was kinda hoping we may have got one of them.

But i spose if UCD lose those two they will struggle big time next season.

Hate to see Bohs get even stronger though. What a defence they will have if they can add "the freak", plus Crowe and Doyle would be a scary combination.

[UCD_4_Life]

I don't think we'll struggle too badly. We've got some good strength in depth in defense and Pat Jennings will replace Baz Ryan without too many problems.

My main worry is that we were poor upfront with Doyle, we'll need at least two more strikers if and when we lose him. I've still no faith in Alan Gallen even if he did win us the game against Cork.

[Shed End John]

Seems that the vast majority of clubs have far more outs than ins. A possible indication of an England-like transfer market collapse here I wonder??

I dont think so, eL club in general have a high player turn over rate dont think this season is any different to others.

[Dodge]

Yeah and there is still 5 weeks to kick off. Most clubs get rid of players before they sign. us more than most it seems

Thanks for that Gustavo! We lost two fine keepers in the last few months so we badly a netminder we can rely on! Hear he was good from a few others. I just hope he has a bit more of an impact than our last Sligo blow-in Mr.Mannering! :)

[Schumi]

This thread is getting depressing. I'm going to have to make up a signing soon. :(

[sadloserkid]

There ya go Schumi! Belated happy birthday! :D

[Schumi]

Here you go Derek McGrath (Glenavon) and Robbie Griffin (Pats) (http://www.eleven-a-side.com/premier/story.asp?newsid=4330)

[Schumi]

I'd heard we might be looking at Griffin alright. Who's Derek McGrath do you know? Where does he play, is he any good?

[pineapple stu]

Derek McGrath is a centre-mid who played for Kilkenny in the season they won 9 points and then moved to Monaghan for the next season! :( :(

He's not a bad player, but he's another experienced squad player at a stage when we need to be looking for the next Robbie Doyle/Alan Cawley/Kev Grogan.

At least Sean Finn's still around - someone had been saying he was leaving as well.

[Neil]

Any movement in Monaghan United?

what has happened to him? did he not score in the efa cup for longford town not too long ago?

[Countyman]

Yeah I know about his exploits with Longford but I dont think he ever fired on all cylinders with us last year. Scored very few goals (3 I think) and seemed lethargic a lot of the time.

I think keely thought he was a bit lazy. Suffered a few injuries so that mightn't have helped.

I'm surprised he hasn't been snapped up by anyone else though .
