He spent two seasons with us from 2005 to 2006. How good are the three players we are about to sign??Quote:

I would say that it will be like this time last season that there will be very little people staying and a lot going...Quote:

Gareth has great potential still u20 plays on either flank as good as McCabe whom Sligo signed IMO, Deans very experienced CB and will give 100%, you might be right about Gary.Quote:

Longford Lion was saying to me that he played for us in that game under Aaron Callaghans stewardship...Quote:

Coughlan's a really good player I think, I'd be delighted if we snared him. Same goes for Deans, he'd be a quality defender in the First Division.
Coughlan has signed for Pats
Saw that. No great surprise that he got a more attractive offer really.
has anyone heard any news yet on whos definitely staying??? Im quite intrigued...;)
Yep :cool:Quote:

And I'm sure when the club want the world to know then they will announce it. We just gotta sit tight.
according to a poster on the main forum here we have signed Peter Hynes, John Lester , and Chris Deans.Thomas Hyland has signed as well. He was playing at University of Memphis for the last few years. Also heard on the grapevine by the poster there is that Kevin Cronin has resigned too..
yeah its all on the rumors thread anybody in the know??:DQuote:
