Always thought Barry Clancy was a good player. Would have liked if Limerick had signed him. Should be a good player for Shels if he signs. He is small but has always done a good job at fullback or wing anytime i saw him play. Was with Kildare before Mons.Quote:

Just coz they are talking to other clubs doesnt mean they are leaving!! We have our player of the year awards night on Saturday week so we should know a bit more after that.
Word is Clancy has signed.
Rumour on our forum that Pats have offered a contract to Tom Miller
Can clubs register new players before the FAI approves their budgets for next season?
If such a policy was pushed to the letter, clubs nearly wouldn't be able to sign players on 2 year contracts.Quote:

Same goes for Darragh Hanaphy, scored some goals as sub for Monaghan last year but only started two games all season.Quote:

Gutted if Shels have raided us but am not gonna panic until after next Tuesday when the Supporters Club are meeting with Mick Cooke and am sure he will let us know what the story is.
Tom Miller - very good young player, hard-tackling defensive midfielder and filled in at centre-back a few times and did a good job there to. He got young player of the year for us and was a fan favourite in the shed. He was offered a new contract with us, but decided to take up a trial with Charlton. As far as I know he played a reserve game with them and got a head injury (not sure if its serious or anything). Can't see him moving to St Pats to be honest unless Pats can offer him a much larger contract than us - which I can't see happening. Would be gutted if he moved another LOI team to be honest, I think a move to the UK is more likely though.Quote:

Andy Boyle, not Alan I assume.
Centre half; excellent player. Bit disappointing if we're losing players to the lower leagues; was quite happy ye didn't come up for that reason. But financial reality has to have its say, so we'll just have to move on if so.
Hopefully not!Quote:

Tom Miller is a decent player, very tidy infact, wont score many, but thats not his game. He was on very low money with us last year as this was his first senior club, would also be unhappy to see him join another LOI club, but in saying that if clubs are only offering 1 year deals, and if I was a player I`d be looking for the best deal around, and quick. I cant blame any player for looking around, especially as most are virtually unemployed til Feb.
News about Kuduzovic's trial: He did well in training so far. FCS want him to stay for another day. Manager Jürgen Luginger told the media: Kuduzovic is a very experienced player and a good footballer. But Luginger isn't sure whether Faz is able to help the club immediately.
Good things being said about Miller I hope we do sign him now:)
Total hoofball, Shorthall has been heavily linked with us, looks like he will be signing, UCD fans how would yous rate him? A few on the Pats forum don't seem to rate him at all, Replacement for Shane Guthrie possibly
Not going to like this thread at all!!
Yeah, heard Shorty's looking at Pat's alright. Very solid defender; picks up a few more cards than you might like, but was up for Player of the Year this season (came fourth I think) - was one of those quietly-efficient-nothing-too-spectacular nominations.
What's the football like in Bundesliga 3 robertob? Better than Irish top level?
Know how you feel stu. My heart is breaking at thoughts of losing our team.:-( please please please lads stay...we look after you and we will win it next year.
On the other hand John Lester is available and you can offer him a contract to do whatever you like :DQuote:

I think the best Irish teams should have no problem to play a good part in this League and the likes of Richie Ryan, Paul Keegan, Ronan Finn etcetera should be useful players there.Quote:

Wheres he off to ?Quote:

I haven't won the lotto yet so can't afford him as my sex slave and he would be no use on the pitch after I'm done with him.Quote:

Jaysus, Liverpool barely gave Hodgson a chance. Well done Nutsy.Quote:

Nope, and thats why I asked. It was rumoured that he asked his contract to be ripped up in order to join ye. Asked Club officials last night and it was a dodgy answer I got back and came home to see that ye signed a Paul Murphy.Quote:
