Seen this (3 week) old article. Forrester says he would like to play abroad - if a move to England doesn't materialise - with Buckley's encouragement.
One of Stan's players from our last sojourn in the States is moving up a grade: http://www1.skysports.com/football/n...tephen-gleeson
Stephen Gleeson in talks with Birmingham. Still only 25- 7 years on from his Ireland debut.
I can't have been the only one who wanted it to be Joe Lapira.

Could be agents trying to stir an interest but he shouldn't be short of offers. That goal tally from midfield demonstrates he was at a level below himself. Will be interesting to see if he just moves to League One or if a Championship side is willing to take a punt.
Sky Sports
understands a number of Championship clubs are tracking Leyton Orient forward David Mooney. The likes of Mooney's former club Reading and Ipswich are thought to be keeping tabs on the Irishman, who scored 21 goals for Orient last season.
Alan Cawley's comments and personal experience about going to England at a young age are interesting (I know it's a few months old). It must be so hard on the kids and their family. I really wish we could keep these kids at home until they are older and more mature before they make these decisions.

Call me biased, but I think they're far better prepared to go to England at 18/19 after a season or two in League of Ireland. It's a big ask for a 15/16 year old to leave home and move to England to play football full time. A couple of years makes a big difference to a kids experience and character.Quote:

He's a super player but I wouldn't have thought he'd interest Arsenal. Technically very good but very raw too, decision-making isn't great at times although I'm not sure where his final position will be. I think first team football is really helping him and you'd be worried about him getting lost in reserve team football.
New contracts for Sean Long and Shane Griffin of Reading.

Anyone know much about Justin Merz?: http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/justi...spieler/172652
He was born in Germany and plays with Karlsruher SC II, but is eligible to play for us and recently played for our under-21s. How does he qualify? Irish mother, I assume?
Doyle and Ward uncertain futures

Josh O'Hanlon to League Two York on a month's loan. He previously had a good spell with non-league Poole Town. On the bench today at Mansfield.
