I don't think he has signed a new contract yet, and I'm not sure he's been offered one.Quote:

Don't you just hate it when you have to scan a whole bunch of internet forums at 8.30 in the morinng to make sure you didn't post anything too stupid after a few pints the night before? D'oh!
The Star has reported today that Stephen O' Flynn will sign for United from Derry today after he completes a medical they qoute O Flynn saying "it will be a different challenge being the underdog rather than the favourite but I cant wait"

Thats another excellent signing well done Tony
I'ts official. He passed his medical this am. and is now a GUFC player.
excellent!
so far we've signed 2 very good players so hopefully its a sign of things to come. hopefully we can make a few more top additions to the squad. lester and o flynn should compliment each other well as o flynn is a big strong player who is good in the air and lester is more than capable of picking out his head at every opportunity
what game plan tony is going to have for next season.most if not all premier league clubs though rely alot on set pices as a source of goals.i just hope we play alot on the ground too.but great signings,well done tony and put your feet up now for a few days for a well earned break.
Apart from here there seems to be no other clarification that O'Flynn has signed ! So is it official at all? Anyone hear any news on the goalkeeping front? I heard something about Pat Jenning jnr. making his way down here from derry too !
That'd be another gem of a signing aswell.
Was very impressed with him in the few matches i saw of him this year.
O' Flynn will be a great signing for you as he'd be sure to get you a few goals next season. Im surprised you are so happy about lester signing. He didnt really impress me any time ive seen him
I see Clive Delaney has been released by Derry. He's a major threat from set-pieces and a decent enough player.
Jennings is somewhat error-prone but can produce superb performances as well.
Tony might also look for any players Drogheda are willing to let go. They've already signed a Finnish 'keeper, Ollie Cahill and Stuart Byrne.
(They're also 6-1 for the league, three places in an each-way bet, with Hills. I've invested a nice bit on it.)
Stories doing the rounds in Bray are that Collie James has signed for Galway as well. Great little signing for your lot. Very under rated IMO
j russell has emigrated
I'ts official now!

Fanstatic newz.He should be a good signing hopefully he'll score plenty of goals!!
I wonder would this mean Conor Gethins wont be signing coz Tony already has Murphy, Moran, O'Flynn in attack or will he sign one more striker?
i think he'll definitely need to sign another striker. barry struggled at first division level for long spells and murphs was ridiculously below standard last year. we need one more top drawer striker who can score at least 10-15 goals a season
Great news as I would class myself as a fan of O'Flynns.
Now who next? anybody know anything about this collie james lad?
he's supposed to be a pretty good player. he was on that eircom league under 21 semi-pro team in 2004. hopefully we can get him in as well. heres his profile from brays website

I was told today that Vinny Faherty from Salthill Devon has signed for Ipwich town, any chance of us taking Cian McBrien before he goes in the same direction? Young talent like these should be joining us before heading over, it would make the step up easier for them, and would be a good boost for Galway football in general!
Terry,
Ciano is one of my best friends so when i say he's simply not good enough for England i mean it.He's an ardent fan of GUFC and travels to his share of away games aswell as banging the drum at the home matches.
I have no doubt he'll play for UTD in the near future.He's a very good player,quite similar to Russler,but he's not good enough to cross the channel.
Chris Armstrong from St. Pats has signed for Galway as well
you were right about colm james, i dont know much about Armstrong is this up to date ? http://www.stpatsfc.com/player.php?playerid=23
If so why did he only play 6 games for Pats last season, was he injured ? or did he find it difficult to break into the first team ?
Armstrong was injured for most of the season, came back towards the end of the season. Not a prolific striker but another good addition to the squad.
ie scored one goal ever for pats
Can't say I was ever that impressed with Armstrong and if Pat's are willing to let him go (despite losing their strikeforce) can't be altogether encouraging.
we still need about 5 / 6 players - anyone on the horizon?
We've added a precarious amount of middle of the road signings from what i can see. I know were not big boys in the league yet but I have mydoubts as to whether we should've let go some of last seasons squad. It's down to TC to bring the best out of them I hope he can do it. He worked some wonders when he arrived last season so i'll be wishing him the best in the new year.
Happy New Year to all on foot.ie too
Was told in town today that we have signed the Finnish u21 goalkeeper, anyone else hear this?
the only three players we should have tried to hold onto that we didnt were
Ronan Frawley - Not prepared to go fulltime
Raf - Only left Sligo because of Sean Connor
Dowdy - Very Unlucky not to be offered terms.
O'Flynn & Lester are excellent signings.Colin James I dont know much about but the Bray Fans on here were full of praise for him and Chris Armstrong hasnt been confirmed anywhere yet.
Letting 2 of the biggest knockers of GUFC Pineapple Stu and S. Duffy influence our own posters here and questioning Tony's abilities is a bit rich.
I have heard that we are linked with a Finnish 'keeper as well.
In Saturdays Sun, TC said that he had 15 players in his squad (including Armstrong, who was mentioned as having signed in the article) and is looking to sign 5 more.
He said that he would be looking at players currently based in the UK.
Armstrong and James are officially announcedhttp://www.galwayunitedfc.ie/squad/j...-for-2007.html
TC says he is talking to 2 keepers and hopes to sign a few more players.
just when i was wondering would the website be updated.5 more players would be great and the centre forward could be cg i reckon.
any EL clubs signing any players from limerick?
