A few weeks ago I wouldn't have been surprised if Bohs brought Wardy back but we've a lot of depth in position now to say the least. Thought him going to Shels was a strange one and the lack of football he's played probably confirms that. Lovely footballer when's he on it but won't exactly put in a shift which is the least Duff demands it seems.
I see Ronan Boyce could be on the way out of Derry, what’s the story with him because always seemed quite decent but seemed to fall in & out of favour with Higgins quite a bit
I’d take him at Pats all day long. Sjoberg is decent enough but is still proving his reliability availability wise, either way I think Boyce is a better full back than him. Ryan McLaughlin is made of glass.Quote:

Boyce is a quality player and in a position where quality can be hard to come by in this league.
He'd be ideal for us rather than playing Mountney at full back. Would take a serious deal to make that happen as things are generally never mind coming in to a relegation battle. Higgins has a bit of a habit of falling out and excluding people if the rumours are true. Playing lads out of position rather than sorting differences (unles very serious but then thatd be suspension from the club level stuff). Assistant Manager mysteriously leaving after beig head hunted. No denials from the manager that there isnt any issue which kind points to an unsettled camp. Or is Higgins a Roy Keane like discipline coach that is easily put out by things like players wearing gloves in training?
Sure he can come to Harps on loan for the rest of the season and back to Derry then when ye get shot of Higgins
Jack Kavanagh leaves Kerry for Treaty as expected.
Tweet below mentions two further outs for Kerry but don't know who and couldn't speculate either.

We don't exactly have the biggest panel as it is, but the two most obvious candidates would appear to be Victor Udeze (can't break into the starting line-up given Kelliher gelling well with both Okwute and Amechi) and Valeri Dolia (sadly has been almost permanently crocked ever since joining).
Yeah I was glancing through the (not huge) Kerry squad and nobody jumped out other Udeze. I'd forgotten about Dolia but sounds right.Quote:

Cam Elliott left Dundalk yesterday aswell,was never up to it for them really….:…
Willie Armshaw has signed for Aisling Annacotty and has gotten a significant pay rise in the process
Makes sense as Im sure there are better 2nd strikers about to add to the young attackers. Ironically when Daly came in and changed to variations of 442 with Gulan and Elliot on together, Elliot wasnt at all bad as the grunt and foil for Gullan. Gullans untimely injury stopped the development of that potential partnership. But need a player than be back up to Gullan and play alongside. Funnily enough I thought Dervin initially was in as a striker rather than midfielder i think cause some pointing his scoring rate and my not paying enough attention. Elliot could have been ok under different formations but not as a lone striker. he could creat chances for others but not so much form his own chances and take them.Quote:

I can’t help but feel that Kerry probably view their goals for the season as achieved (4+ wins, 20+ points etc) and are offloading now to hopefully reload for next season. It wasn’t the biggest squad in the first place, besides losing another 6-7 and bringing in only 1. To be fair the improvement in the home grown players this season has been massive too. I would expect Dolia to depart (surprised it hasn’t happened yet).Quote:

It was announced earlier Blues keeper Sam Sergeant will miss majority of the season through injury.
Goalkeeper Louis Jones has since signed on loan from Doncaster for the remainder of the season. He played 20 games for Doncaster last season.
Conor Walsh to Wexford on loan. Hopefully he gets a run of games.
Dave the Rave wants to sign Kevin Williams from Kerry.
