It's official. Wesley is now a United player. Whatd'ya think? He is a big lad and I reckon he could produce good form under Cousins, specially now the lads are settling down with his coaching and tactics. He'll be a great help in getting out of the 1st division.
I heard on Galway Bay Fm at lunch that:
GUFC have signed defender Welsey Charles from Bray earlier today on a free tranfer
and some more signings are promised later this week:)
They would be better off with Ray Charles at the back to be honest!
excellent
good signing
If ye can get him back to his 98-2000 form he will be unstoppable :)
Decent centre back who pops up with up with odd goal.
Does have a tendency to lose concentration though...
Good signing all the same which will definitely strengthen our squad.
but when its against his own team it doesnt really count.Quote:

Comon United, lets keep the first division trophy in connaught for another season.
Good signing- he nearly signed for Harps before last season but his wage demands were reputedly fairly hefty.
Leeson and co. must be bringing in the cash in a big way because United must be pretty much the biggest spenders in the division at this stage- I'd say only Rovers are shelling out a simlilar amount.
There is a tight ship being run in terryland with a wage cap in place so I would imagine that we would be fairly low. But, if you're comparing us to other first division clubs we would be up close to the top alright along with yerselves of coarse
a few departures which would have freed up some of the budget that was there and the one thing i have said all along is that our strong squad would stand to us in the long run as Limerick especially,Cobh and Rovers have less strength in depth than United. We have only lost twice in the league and all we needed was a decent run of victories to put us right back in the melting Pot.
I think any GUFC Fan would have been happy to be 1 point off the lead at the half way point and the big bonus is that Murphs & Barry have really clicked in the last 3 games and look to be back in the form they were 3 yrs ago.
Any idea who has left the club?Quote:

If we finish the league like we did last season we should win the league
Spot on there GUFCT.
Trainee, I think the players he was referring to were the players that were let go after the end of last season.
Eric,Stevie Gavin and the backroom team is far more streamlined.
how did I forget about them?:confused: says a lot really!!!Quote:

As per a club official in the City Tribune last Friday, our total club expenditure
is E15K per week.
I'm sure Wesley Charles will be amongst the top earners.
Well its like this were gonna be spending a lot more should we move to the top flight next season. We need to know where the cash is gonna come from. Top flight football is turning fully pro and looks like we'll have to do the same in the near future in order to survive (ironically such a move could make us extinct anyway)
its a really good signing,i remember him playing against us for bray in terryland and me shaking my head because it was him up against ollie keogh for high balls all night long,absolutely no contest about who was gonna win that duel:) .the guy is built like a tank,him and billy as our 2 centre backs will be an unwelcome sight for any strikers of other teams to see.as someone else said he does pop up with the odd goal too,didnt he score for bray just recently in fact????
i had heard of a kildare midfield player meant to be coming but no word in a while on that so its probably not gonna happen.
wes will be available for fridays game,yes????
