We need at least 4/5 players - any news on Vinny Faherty and Aidan Price?

I'd have thought both would have been signed by now to be honest.
Heard the club made Hughes a terrible offer so would love to hear of something improved there and we get him in as he still hasn't signed with Galway.
If we are to get in Prince, Abass, Price, Hughes and Faherty that would be good bodies to bulk up the squad.

I reckon we might see Murphy in there for Costello as it seemed on Sunday like it was Shanes first game in a while. If Price signs I would imagine we could be looking at a back 4 of Harding, O'Connor, Price, Williams. Was impressed with Harding on Saturday and reckon he could become a fans favourite.
Harding had a good game Saturday great commitment and very comfortable on the ball agree with fans favourite going by his display Saturday , paudie o Connor was very impressive also and Robbie Williams very good looks like the goalkeeper could be a real find what a double save superb , a lot more positive about bohs game after Saturdays display I know we scored 3 but badly need another striker or scoring goals is going to be a problem could do with a physical presence up front look light weight
Harding is an exp pro who along with robbie and shane duggan and paul o'connor will add the experience needed to help the younger lads.i have seen paudie o'connor play a couple of times and he is an exciting prospect although a bit light and young.shane costelloe played well on sat like the whole team.they gave their all against a team of superstars?there wasnt any sign of price or faherty at the game on sat.i doubt if the club will be signing them now.the team still needs a few more bodies as it will struggle with injuries/suspensions during the season.take a lot of positives from sat though.keeper had a great game but he looked a bit dodgy under crosses and high balls a few times.
Don't think the keeper has a great game at all tbh kicking was poor flapped at crosses was at fault for their 3rd goal because of it and gave away a penalty when he should have never wen't to ground so quickly. Showed signs of what he is capable of with the double save but I hope Eddie Hickey can sort him out under crosses cos he has been poor at it every game I have seen him so far, I think Eddie will help him sort it though.
Ya I was worried half way through to the game because nearly every corner or cross he came flapping out for the ball and a few times actually prevented our own players clearing it by jumping on top of them. Decision making like that needs to improve. If Ali is a bit safer in those situations there could be a good battle for the starting position.
Would agree with all the points re:keeper/crosses.he is a good keeper but he is young.eddie will have to get him to be more commanding in the box under crosses and high balls.its not that he is a small keeper.this is where a guy like oji helped a lot.barry ryan was an excellent keeper that would have brought conor on a bit but thats history now.hopefully the team can pull off a win on sat and maybe add a couple of more bodies to the team.
Look no matter who we brought in after Barry it was gonna be a step down so to go and get the best young keeper in the country and he is that was the best possible we could do imo. Yes we will have to deal with mistakes while he is learning but that is the same with every young keeper I have seen enough of him to know he is capable of saving a game for us too another one we just need to be patient with let him work away with Eddie and we could have another top keeper in the league on our hands in time.
Like delboy mentions above with Oji if we were to get a good commanding centre back in will do him the world of good.
Having looked at other squads too I don't think we are as bad off as I thought still not good but not a million miles behind the likes of Galway,Drogheda and Bray by any means.
Hope the underground is working in Jackman.lol.There is a game on their tomorrow night.Pitch could be poor for Saturday.
Aidan Price and Vinny Faherty signed.
Great news that faherty and price signed.adds a bit more loi exp to the side and a bit of quality.will bring on the young lads a lot more.positive news before sat.
Great news today re Price and Faherty.Exactly the kind of LOI experience this team needed. If you sub Price for Costelloe and Faherty for Rainsford you have a solid outfit for Bohs Saturday night with plenty of experience.Give me LOI experience like Price and Faherty ahead of Stuart Taylor's spice boys this time last year. Last year we had a plastic team in a plastic stadium that went through the motions and collected their cheque off Pat. I expect real football in a real football ground Saturday night and 11 lads playing for the jersey unlike the last two years.
They should put that on the Jackman gate. "Real Football Ground".
Spot on,faceoff.
Going by the info put up on the Limerick website they have erected a temporary stand for the away fans.
