Ciaran is scheduled for surgery at the beginning of Feb and will be out of action for around 12 months.

Can't be him your after, it must be Sean Roddy ye want, he's a superb player, honest, he really is :o
If it's not Roddy then ye must be after Ian Rossiter, now that young lad has a bright future ahead of him.

Apparently it was on local radio (though not always the most reliable) than Dan Murray and Danny Murphy have signed for Shamrock Rovers.

While I completely understand, it's the 2 players Im absolutely gutted to see go.

Rovers will have some defence next season though if true

I think you've got your Rovers mixed up.

I've been hearing both Murray and Murphy were going to Sligo with Murray already a done deal?

Anyone?

All the rumours about those 2 were Silgo Rovers alright, not to say it didn't happen.

Where are Sligo getting all this money from? Chris Turner doesnt come cheap, neither do those two lads from Cork!

Sugar Daddy? Europe money? Doing what every other club does and spends money it doesn't have just for success?

Both want to stay, nothing signed with anyone else.....yet anyway.
Roddy may not want to keep certain players.

I'd be disgusted to see Dan and Danny leave as they always gave 100% during their time with City, but you can't blame either of them considering the way they were treated over the last two seasons. And Gamble could be on his way soon according to the local evening rag down here, he is off to join Behan & Co at Hartlepool after impressing on a recent trial.
Last one out turn off the lights.....

For the record Flood did start his LOI career at Pats.

There is no doubt that when he is in the mood and focused he can be a really effective player. The question is more about what manager will put up with his attitude.

Kealy has had enough of him, Gill sacked him for "breach of discipline". he played less then 30 games for Pats, Athlone and Shamrock Rovers combined. If he is around for any length of time he will test the patience of manager and team-mates

I remember him being linked with us around this time last year. I can't quite put my finger on why he was in the papers, did he sue st.pats or something along those lines ?

Yeah something along those lines because we sacked him as he didn't reach specific targets regarding his weight IIRC

I was talking to him in Limerick the other day and he was saying he thinks he is signing for us. Doing a course in University of Limerick he never mentioned surgery.

Turner came here for a significantly less amount than what Shams were supposedly offering.

Our budget has been reduced this season. What part of that do people find hard to believe?
