Young keeper, still a lot to learn. He was thrown in at the deep end this year. He made some errors as expected with a young player, wasn't helped by having a chronic defence in front of him, but gave some good performances too. He single handedly prevented Shams from mauling us in Terryland in August. Can't see it being anything more than a trial over there for now, but no reason why he can't become a good keeper in the future.

If any young keeper from Galway deserved a trial with Liverpool it probably should be Ger Hanley.

Your probably right though, it most likely is nothing more than a trial. Have always felt the majority of times English teams only bring Irish lads over to give the English lads a bit of competition and have no real interest.

I've heard of a young lad paying �2000 for a trial with a League 1 club. I'd say the clubs only interest was to make money

Yep it happened, sad isn't it. He was at a junior club in Wexford, I was told Wallace didn't want him for any of the Youths underage teams and he went over to England then for the trial

McGoldrick signed for 2012 a few months ago and Horgan's original deal was up until next November.

North's signing gives us some much needed physical presence up front.

North is a great signing for Sligo.

Not sure about that. What north gives you is pace and finishing ability. If he was there alst year you'd have won the league

Doyle has pace, just has a bit too much energy sometimes and ends up like a headless chicken. I agree about the finishing that he sometimes lacks. Doyle's not the biggest lad either which is where North will come in handy.

North's not that big either (all jokes aside). He's not going to give defenders trouble in the way Blinkhorn's bulk did. North is twice the player Doyle is IMO

Darly Horgan staying with Sligo - board won't let him go apparently.

In better news Blinkhorn most likely won't be coming to Cork and Davin O'Neill is expected to sign a contract when he returns from his honeymooon. Greg has also been offered a contract

North will still be able to keep hold of the ball better than Doyler can, he's the bit of strength we need up front. I think Doyle is slightly over-rated in Sligo, despite his record last season.

North's signing also means Blinks is gone.

The cub negotiating with players without having a manager in place? Weird one
