how did you end up stung with that pudding? :D one less mouth to feed at Rovers i suppose.
Can't really comment didn't see much of him, but was a part of the worst Rovers side in history. We were talking to him but he wanted something like €800 a week, definitely not worth that.Quote:

We're supposedly signing one or two polish players, Alan Matthews was over in Poland recently on a scouting mission and he has supposedly found a few gems
I wish I was as confident as you :oQuote:

Surely Longford have potential targets ready to improve the squad though? Are ye up to much in the transfer market so far?Quote:

We can just confirm down here that our former captain Davy Mulcahy has just signed for St.Pats, huge loss to us, and also that Fat Dolan is trying his best to destroy another club (The Blues) by telling players not to sign contracts and he's told them he will be taking over at Limerick.
The sooner the better this person is put down, the better for League of Ireland.:mad:
Off topic but...If this is true then it is becoming a pattern. Dolan achieves demi-God status while in charge of a club then becomes a hate figure when he leaves. I hate the man, he is a two-faced git who seems to have a love for every team in the country when he is simply looking to the future and possible employers.
Am I right in thinking he's a centre half ? I take it you rate him highly.Quote:

shane harte from kildare? did he not leave kildare ages ago? Just out of curiosity what position does he play? :confused:Quote:

Sean Connor is 95% certain that his number one target will sign. The player in question is still under contract with his current club so he wont name him but he did say that he was on the bench for his team(an English league 1 side) last Saturday. His contract is up at the end of this month so he's expected to join us then.
Connor also said that he'll be keeping an eye on how Keith Gilroy gets on with Burton(after all the hype with the Man U game ends) and said that he'd love him to play for him.
Rumours were that we were interested in former player Declan Boyle(released by Harps last week) but Sean dismissed them saying that he's a good player but he wants to keep to a young enough squad. Our oldest player is only 26:eek:.
Not sure if this was posted yet but i havent seen it on the list of transfers
Dave Breen has signed for Cobh from Waterford

Thats good and bad ! good if he can keep the squad together and develop them over a few years, bad because lack of experience. How many Rovers players have Premier experience ?Quote:

Not many in the EL Premier Division but some have experience from other leagues, for example, Liam Burns has played for Bristol Rovers and Port Vale in England. In the actual Premier, O'Grady is probably our most experienced given that he played with Derry and Cork in the Premier. The likes of Cretaro and McTiernan don't have experience in the Premier, but I don't think playing there will affect them that much considering they have played against(and beaten some of) the big teams before, in cup games. A lot of our squad have being playing together for a number of seasons, despite being relatively young, so they know how to work with each other well:).Quote:

We have signed Kevin Williamson from Dublin City. He has previously played for Galway and Bohs under 21s
Harps keeper James Gallagher has joined Glenavon and midfielder Barry Curran is on his way to finn park from Newry City.
Both to be confirmed though:ball:
Curran is now confirmed as a signing.
Heard Gallagher is going on-loan to Glenavon too aye. Aint had this confirmed though
Sligo Rovers have signed 3 new players(one of which was previously announced but now it's official). Keith Foy(Monaghan), Gavin Peers(Mansfield) and Adam Hughes(Doncaster). See here.
While Carlos Alvarez has gone on loan to Glenavon.
Gallagher won't be signing for Glenavon due to difficulties in the possibility in calling the player back, if he needed to be called back early. Something to do with bringing a player back outside of windows. This from a Harps Board member earlier this evening.Quote:

Trevor Molloy's contract at Rovers has been terminated by mutual consent. He has re-joined St. Pat's.
Good luck to him, no animosity on either side. His departure will pay for three other players wages now
Todays Star speculates on City and Drogs being in the hunt for Zayed.
Yes please.
looks like paul keegan is signing for pats next week! cos of him being based in scotland it wont suit keegan to stay with us! he will much missed a good siging for pats!
Do Cork or Drogs really have €100,000+ to spend on 1 player ?Quote:

Am i right in saying this is his last season under contract at Bray?
Might want to cash in so.
Sense would send him to the home of the Eircom League Champions but sense of the financial kind might lure him to the other side of Dubland.
Might get near enough to €100,000 off Drogs if Doolin convinces them he's the final piece of the jigsaw.
Finn Harps Have just taken our useless defender Sean Cooney on loan for the the season. Cooney joined bohemians on a free transfer after being released by Coventry in july 05
You think he's useless now, wait til he spends a year in the Harps school of tellytubby-style defending :p
Tadhg Purcell is a class act. He's definitly good enough for the premier. I wonder did we (kilkenny City) get any money for him??
He signed for us last year on a two year contract so we must have got something. Rovers made an initial bid of 1,800euro:mad: for him that was rejected and we apparently put a 10,000euro price on his head but then he refused to play for us and demanded a move to rovers:mad: so ye probobly got him for nothing:mad:
Update Jamie Duffy has also left us for Rovers aswell
Paul Donnely ex St Pats has signed for us
Robbie McGuiness ex Bray is currently on trial here
Husein Yassdani ex Shels has signed
Sean L'Estrange ex Shels has signed
Dont know any more - the other players are all probobly ex Leinster Senior Leaguers
