Monaghan United manager Mick Cooke confirmed today that former Shamrock Rovers footballer Philip Sheppard has signed on the dotted line. Sheppard had agreed terms last week but there was some speculation that he may not sign. This has been put to bed as “Shep” put ink to paper today.
Sheppard joins the growing list of United players for the 2008 season with Robbie Collins and Brian Gartland the other players to have opted to play for Mons this week.
