Sweede lord almighty, I think taking the p!ss out of the Scandinavian needs to Finnish now. His reception has already been Baltic.
It was only intended as an icebreaker but there snow way the guy will stick around if this is how he'll be treated. Who knows, I hyypiä right if he's not any good.
The off season eh?
March can't come too soon for us all.
And it'll be no time until we see the season Finnish again.Quote:

He was with UCC so hopefully he's developed well and will get a deal.Quote:

I love Dan Murray, hes my all time favourite Cork City player and I was afraid he wouldn't return and it would ruin his City legacy, but at the same time I don't know if this is the best way to allocate our budget. I wonder is the money that was allocated for Daryl Kavanagh being transferred to Dan.
We still need a striker and a winger, ideally first choice players
sorry to see Big Dan go, not the fastest(thats being nice) but always brought a bit of calm to the defense. exactly the type of player cork need back in the prem if they want to start challengingQuote:

I think he would be huge along side some of our younger players, Spillane, Kavanagh, Turner and Dunleavey could learn a lot from him.Quote:

Theres been literally no talk around Derek that I've heard, I'd gladly have him back as an option off the bench if he'd play for those sort of wages.Quote:

hes only 29. He was never fastQuote:

Outgoing treasure Vincent Nally made a presentation on the audited accounts to the club’s members in which a profit of just under €60,000 was recorded.
The improvements to the The Showgrounds in 2011 were commended. Toolan said that hosting the third round Europa League game was a wonderful occasion for the club and that the financial outlay on ground works was a credit to everyone.
Vincent Nally, Loman Gallagher and vice-chairman Tony Quinn resigned from the committee with Noel Kennedy and Rory Houston elected.
Appointments in the new committee will be made within the next week. A further meeting to develop the club and The Showgrounds will be held in March.
Are you for real? The guy is 29 and just off the back of captaining the league winning side - something Sligo fans wouldn't know much about admittedly, but your comment is ridiculous.Quote:

Mystic Meg predicts that Sligo will spend a fortune on wages and bore their way to a cup final again this year :cool:
2nd best 4 life.
He's as slow as he he's ever been, to be honest. The reason he's spent most of his career challenging for titles is that his positioning, anticipation and reading of the game are second to none in this league.Quote:

Great signing for Cork. His reading of the game, organisation and leadership will be very valuable to a newly promoted side finding it's feet in the Premier Division.
Gutted that we didn't at least try to sign Dan for the craic.
Came along too late. :(
Derek O'Brien to Tralee.

Imagine one of the other centre halves might end up on loan now.
Welcome home captain!
Players at Dundalks first training session - as per dundalkfc.com
Michael Rafter -Former Republic of Ireland U19 international forward
Colin Finan
Peter Cherrie
Paul Walsh - Limerick and Waterford
John Mountney - expected to sign within 24 hours
Rafter is rubbish. Mountney is a very good little player, but Paul Walsh is a borderline good FD player, let alone PD standard..Quote:

It's good to see Cherrie training with us and it would be even better if he signs.
Don't know much about the other lads. Mourtney looks like he is as good as signed and from what I heard is a good player. His team mate Ger Hanley move to us was stopped due to Mervues compensation demands.
Colin Finan is a Dundalk local, he made his debut for us as a 16 year old, doesn't seem to have done much football wise since.
Paul Walsh lives and works in Dundalk.
