Jamie McKenzie has left Sligo Rovers after close to three years with us. He’s signed with Cypriot outfit Apollon FC Limassol.

Good luck to you Jamie, a player with plenty of potential and I’m sure he will do well. He wasn’t given much of an opportunity to play this season, but with Almeida and Peers in the form they currently performing at it was gonna be difficult to get into the starting XI.

I thought his performance against UCD a couple of weeks ago was top notch.

Good luck and thanks.

dissapointed to see him go he was very good whenever he came on this season. He was also very good in his first 2 seasons aswell, wish him all the best.

Surprised to see Cook let him go for nothing since we need money.

That was on the Cards for the lasrt few weeks from what I heard.very good personal terms too so i believe, much better than rovers could offer. Fair play to him, a nice lad, and should do well.

Danny, obviously......, failing that it's Steve Feeney.

Our first choice central midfielder. Although Feeney was very good there when he arrived on the scene first of all. Going to be a lot of holes plugged for the rest of the season

An excellent player and still very young with bags of potential. Very disappointed to see him go. Hope everything goes well for him.

No organisation would make public their new secret weapon.....Sadam Hussain didn't do it and he knew his stuff.

from Sligo Rovers.com:

Sligo Rovers have announced the departure of Jamie McKenzie and Anto Murphy. Jamie McKenzie has signed a two year deal with Cypriot side Apollon FC Limassol and Anto Murphy has signed a deal with Bohemians.

McKenzie joined Rovers in 2006 as a 19 year old and has matured into a very effective centre back, however his appearance have been limited this season with the blossoming of the Peers / Almeida central defensive partnership.

Anto Murphy arrived from St Pat's in the close season. Settling in very quickly, he produced a number of man of the match performances in the centre of the park.

Sligo Rovers would like to thank both players for their service to the club and wish them all the best for the future.

They're two different clubs! so who has he signed with? I cant see an official website for Aris Limassol FC.

He's not on http://www.apollon.com.cy/en/transfers.php so I presume your correct, he of Sligo.
