Maybe due to the number of goals conceded. He'd be backup at best for top teams.Quote:

Possibly, but Longford are in for him so that wouldn't explain it either.Quote:

Right that must be him, is he in or around 28 years old.
By the way when on the subject of keepers, are there any stand out ones left in the first division, from what I seen last season Dunican at Athlone was dire , Murray at Shels was okay, Cabo seemed to use about four hundred different goalies none of whom were great, Corbett at UCD was good but I think he lost his place late on, I'm not counting the relegated or promoted sides in this. And by the way Brian Kane, ex Bray currently with Malahide and a teacher in Drogheda is set to be Drogs new number one, and he's nothing special either.
yesterdays mirror had him back to Sligo Rovers! and us for ex keeper Craig Hyland! hopefully its Schlingermann as he was definitely the best keeper in league last season!Quote:

Anyone know what Gary O Neill from UCD is like?
Why do you ask bluewhitearmy? Are limerick being linked? He is under contract at ucd. Talented player
Nothing more than a bit of talk around here I know he was training with us before the start of last season or was at least meant to so was just interested in case something does come of it.Quote:

He was one of their better players if I remember rightly. Not that he had a lot of competition.
Lee Duffy left a positive impression each time I saw him play last season. Decent signing
It is Kev. He was with Cork for the 2012/3 seasons. Before than he spent a couple of years with us (Waterford) playing for our under 20 and also went into be the number one first team keeper and played for us in the 2014 season signing back from Cork. He's an excellent keeper and can be the one of the best in the division. He spent a year in the states and is back now. BTW he's 25, next birthday is next summer and he's also a local lad.Quote:

I presume Michael Rafter will be on the look out for a club seeing as he's back in Ireland. After a year away in Australia.
He was looking good for us in pre-season before injury ruled him out for the season. Scored a few goals so was disappointing as I thought he would've been very good for us.Quote:

I understand that the ankle injury he suffered at Cork was particularly serious and potentially career-ending. Did he play while in Australia? He also has had significant weight & general fitness issues - he will have his work cut out to earn a contract.Quote:
