Heard today that Chris McGrath son of legend Paul, will more than likely be let go from Liverpool Academy at the end of the season. He's supposedly a very pacey central defender. Maybe worth a shot taking him on. He's is only 18.

Also heard today that Chris Byrne and Brian Shelley may be transfer listed from Carlisle after going out after the 5-1 mauling they received from Hull at the weeked. You would think that Byrne would have learned his lesson after the bouncer incident with John Terry and Jody Morris. :rolleyes:

Shelley is crap. He couldn't get his game with Bohs or Longford. That's why he had to settle for Carlisle.

Des Byrne? Naa.

Des Byrne..my bad...where did i get chris from?? :confused: :o....must have had it stuck in my head with Pauls son...

Bryne by all accounts is a handy player.....just needs to sort himself out off the pitch...he's still only a young fella though...

Maradona junior eyes Britain


Diego Maradona has never recognised Diego Junior
Diego Maradona's son could be set for a shock move to Scottish First Division club Clyde.
Diego Junior, who is only 16, is currently with Italian Serie B outfit Napoli, where his father became a legend in the late 80s and early 90s.

Clyde boss Alan Kernaghan told The Sun newspaper: "I took a phone call out of the blue last week from a TV company acting on behalf of Napoli about the possibility of Diego Maradona's son coming to Clyde.

"At the moment, he's too young to play for the first team there and they want to put him out on loan next season.

There would certainly be a lot of good publicity generated from him coming to Clyde but I wouldn't just sign him for that

Clyde boss Alan Kernaghan

"They said they can't really put him on loan to another Italian club because there would be too much pressure on him with the media there.

"I haven't really had the chance to look into it because we're fighting for promotion, but it is definitely something we will check out in the summer.

Maradona has never recognised the child, but the Italian courts confirmed that the boy was his son after DNA tests were carried out in 1993.

This might not be a very popular choice, but, to put a more experienced player next to O'Flynn, I'd like to see Dolan sign Glen Ferguson from Linfield. The man is an absolute goalscoring machine.

read an article yesterday about the now cancelled irish u-20 world cup squad. A lot of these players are out of contract at the end of the season and are unlikely to be offered another. And a few will be in the same boat next year.
It might be a good idea for dolan to check a few of these players out. We could unearth a couple of really decent players.

Dolan signed Hawkins, Molloy and Morgan from the last U20 squad so maybe he's thinking along the same lines this time rond
