The two players in question are Billy Woods and one of your other players ( Horgan or Kearney I think, the latter's been mentioned as a new signing about 4 or 5 times at this stage -is there more than one Kearney? :rolleyes: ).
If a player finishes his contract and signs another or if a player is in his contract and renews it then they are signings. If a player has not been with the club and he signs for the club then this is a new signing. I think you are getting confused between a 'new signing' and a 'signing'. There is the whole past, present and future thing to consider when you are trying to determine which is which.Quote:

Cork City do not announce as a NEW signing, we just say player has signed new contract. Its called self promotion & the media will report it so get few promotion.
You've opened yourself to too many Shels jokes so I won't start.
Surprised Greg O'Halloran hasn't found a club yet. Surely an ideal signing now for City and I would imagine he'd be more than keen seeing as it looks as if he'd get a regular game?
I don't think he wants to come back & maybe not wanted by the Manager...Quote:

I think leaving Shels and signing for Cork City any time soon would be a backward step for any player. :DQuote:

It would want to be a large biro.
I'm optimistic.
If he said no, it'd be on Red FM and 96fm straight away.
If he said yes, they'd want to maximise the good publicity.
Also heard that there was meant to be a press conference today for the unveiling of Farrelly, Murphy, Beamish, Healy if he signed and confirming the investors. Obviously postponed.
Hopefully, there'll be word tomorrow and a conference Wednesday.
signed meaning "said yes"Quote:

Will get a few arses out the Cross anyway.
Word from Falkirk is Colin was apprehensive about their offer as he's looking for longer-term security for his family.
I haven't seen any development on the rumours of a Wolves interest.
Rico has left him the option of a 1 or 2year contract.
I wont believe till i see it, but it would be a great signing if we actually manage it. Credit to Rico so far anyway.
Indeed, i think in Farrelly we're prepared for a knock-back and the manner of the offer would suggest it's a very generous take-it or leave-it offer.Quote:

Farrelly has already been at 2 clubs since july the maximum allowed by FIFA. City will try to force it through with the same argument Liverpool are using for Javier Mascherano - the other clubs were on a different calendar.
I think the same might apply to hopkins who has been at waterford and bangor since july...
As both players are free agents I think City should be able to successfully challenge this.
AFAIK one of Liverpool's arguments was that EU employment law was of higher precedent than FIFA rules and West Ham could not afford to play Mascherano again because of clauses in his contract which would have triggered massive payments to his previous club. Therefore denying his registration with Liverpool would affect his employment as he would not be played at W/Ham.
With Farrelly and Hopkins it should be even more clear-cut as FIFA/EUFA have no legal right to deny them employment seeing they have no current employer. Mind you CCFC is not Liverpool...
Anyone got any news on when the forum might be back?
No. As in we'll get by with Farrelly. This moving to a third club thing shouldn't be an issue. He didn't play with Leicester so his last club before Blackpool was Bohemians (last season). Correct?Quote:

Good to hear even rumours of confirmation at this stage - any idea when the press conference is due?Quote:

If you're talking about the CCFC unofficial one then ... now:DQuote:

26 year old Healy, who has 13 caps for the Republic of Ireland, expressed his delight at joining the Rebel Army. Healy told CorkCityFC.ie “I have been very impressed with the organisation and ambition displayed by everyone at Cork City over the last few weeks and I look forward to joining such a wonderfully vibrant football club.”
Manager Damien Richardson said “It is a great pleasure to welcome Colin on board. It is a great compliment to our football club and to the league that a player of his calibre has decided to join. Allied to the signings of Gareth Farrelly and Darren Murphy, this has been a most productive week for Cork City Football Club.
Richardson also confirmed to CorkCityFC.ie that he hopes that there will be further additions to the squad by the end of the week.
