Things have gone a bit quiet again. Any news on any more signings or have we news on who is staying from last year. I have nt heard many rumours about any of our squad going to anyone else. So hoping this is a good sign that we keep the majority of our good players.
Doyle put pen to paper over the weekend,Dinny,Fiachra,and caffery i here are staying. I heard a Williams offered to stay but was turned down other than that its been very quite. i still think its the calm before the storm i think there will be lots to talk about accross the board next week.
Just so i can get it straight.
We have Confirmed:
Robbie Doyle
Darren Quigley (loan)
Eamon Zayed
Gary O Neil
Shaun Williams
Ross Gaynor
Stephen Paisley
Shane Mc Faul
Shaun Maher
And it looks likely:
Danniel Corcoran, Paul Caffrey and Fiachra McArdle will sign
Have not heard anything on Alan but ill keep my ear to the ground,also for winning event team of the year we were awarded 4 stars the best in three seasons with one fine for a flare we all know brought in,we recived a 12k sub grant from FAI for this witch the club gave %100 to the North Dublin schools leauge Acadamy(NDSL). nice touch i think.:)
Yeh, Kirby def signing for Fingal. Very good signing.
Any news on the academy that Limerick FC are supposed to be doing.
Cheers Jofspring
Is the alan Kirby signing confirmed anywhere.
Sporting due to play a friendly Vs St Pats this week due to the weather it has been put on hold Bucko hopes to seal two last players of the puzzle this week i have no names. i do know a player Mark Salmon has been let go form Wolves during the weekend and wants to come back to Ireland intrest from Pats and Bohes his position is Mid field Bucko would have looked at him but if he gets his last two this week he will be happy.anyone know anything about this lad.he is down to play for Pats in the Friendly Vs Fingal but not signed yet.
If there is only 2 more, I presume we have a good few staying from last year.
Any news when the official squad list will be released.
Could do with some info about the friendlies on the website. Would allow potential new fans to see the club before the season starts. The website is where i would be looking to get my info about the club from but it hasnt changed since before christmas. I know i keep saying this but i do feel the website should be updated more often. Signing info, The award sporting won, more info on the DCU/Blanchardstown college scholarship, the facility in lusk and any other story related to fingal big or small. Keeps people interested and allows old and new fans to see what the club are up to.
Despite the lack of website updates a group of young fans are trying to organise a bus up to the friendly against Derry. I knew of the Bray friendly as well, first i heard of Pats though.
Information has to come out of the club. They're making a big mistake in failing to do so for the season ahead.
Thanks for the feedback. Believe me, I'm as frustrated as you and the fans are about the site. We took a decision recently to engage a new website provider in order to enhance last year's version.
This change is taking longer than I expected unfortunately. I have been assured that it will be live shortly. However, what I would suggest in the meantime that if any fans etc want to email myself John Fallon. I will send out regular mail updates with news of recent/upcoming events.
Thanks again,

Fair play Sportingman.
Hope the site gets sorted soon.
Latest signings are:
Alan Kirby from St. Patrick's Athletic and Gareth Whelan from Drogheda Utd.League of Ireland fans will know Alan well but maybe not so Gareth.
He is 21-year old centre-back with ten appearances for Drogheda's first team.
Manager Liam Buckley said: "These are two vital signings for us. Alan is a player with considerable experience in the League of Ireland and is a huge addition.
Gareth is a someone I have been looking at for several months and am delighted he has come on board. He is a player I think we develop even further into an established defender.
The squad list (so far) is:
Darren Quigley (loan)
James Hussey
Brian Gannon
Shaun Williams
Gareth Whelan
Philip Byrne
Stephen Paisley
John Frost
Shane Mc Faul
Shaun Maher
Fiachra McArdle
Colm James
Conan Byrne
Alan Kirby
Daniel Corcoran
Ross Gaynor
Robbie Doyle
Eamon Zayed
Gary O'Neill
Also, there has been a pre-season programme scheduled but a lot of this is provisional. The weather is also having an affect on this but I will post it when confirmed.
We will also have announcements over the next week about two new teams within the Sporting Fingal club, namely our Futsal team and the Special Olympics team. More details on these will follow in due course.
Best Regards,
John Fallon
When did John Frost sign? Wasn't he on loan last season?
Was thinking the same myself. Did he slip in under the radar. Decent player.
I have a wee problem one of my good friends here might help me with.
Santa gave my son and his friend a trip to Liverpool to see them play Vs Man City on the 22nd of Feb the problem is Santa sorted the flights and the hotel but cant get his hands on match tickets they sold out in two hours. if anyone knows where Santa would get four tickets please let me know and i will let Santa know
