    UCD to sign Dupuy?

    From eleven-a-side. Scored 13 goals in 16 games for Galway last season - including one agianst us - and seems to be interested in doing a college degree. Quote from Pete Mahon on it as well, so seems to be reliable. There's Batman/Willie Doyle replaced anyway!

    Nice. He'd be a great signing.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

            Full article confirms galwaygirl's post...

            Former Galway United striker Damien Dupuy is believed to be on the verge of signing for Premier Division newcomers UCD, with the option of taking up a university course expected to weigh the balance in College’s favour in the race to sign the talented Frenchman.

            Dupuy’s stock rose with remarkable rapidity last season, when he scored 13 times in 16 games for Galway after joining the Tribesmen in mid-season.

            After returning to France for the holiday season, Dupuy is set to return to the eircom League, with Athlone Town, Waterford United and UCD all said to be interested in his services.

            Students boss Pete Mahon told The Irish Sun: “He is interested in going to university so I am hopeful something can be worked out.”

              Well if it is in the Irish SUn then it has to be true

                    Well according to tonight's Herald, we are using the € 15,000 from Sully's departure to Atletico Doolo , to acquire Mr Dupuy and we are also interested in Aidan Lynch and apparently Ger Rowe ( ex-Shels) too apparently.

                      All those players are free agents though - why would we need the money to sign them? If they can fit into our pre-budgeted wages budget, then fine. And also if they can play football, of course!

                      Ger Rowe is a new one. What's with all this signing players I've heard of?! What's going on?!

                        Current Shels, we're looking to send him on loan, I doubt we'd sell him though I don't think he'll ever be a first team regular.

                          Lynch would be a good signing, assuming he's as good as when he left. Ger Rowe is an interesting one, he looked decent the few times I saw him play for Shels although I can't remember what kind of a player he is. He's hardly going to get into Shels' team this season with all the strikers they have now so he'd be likely to move I'd say. Having said that, if we get Dupuy another striker wouldn't on the top of my wish list.

                            There is still a small chance that Galway United will still be able to hold onto Dupuys services for another season since it was announced that mannion was no longer going to be the manager, since the 2 of them didn't get on very well!! But, as I said the chances are small
