Lads it gets better, he just scored the equalizer in a cup game....
Has Liam Scales joined Bristol Rovers?
He played last night, so the absolutely immediate answer is no.
Be an interesting move though. Where'd you hear it?
The young fella who runs that League of Ireland group has it up,said a club source confirmed it,might be bull*hit!
Sean Brennan who was on loan with us at start of season has gone back to Southampton. Also gone are Kevin Knight and Jamie Hollywood. Jamie because he is playing in the world student games and wont have as much time to commit to playing with us. pity as he had returned from injury and started two of the last three games. Knight didnt play much football with us so no surprise.
Aaron Bolger announced he's leaving Rovers. Must say I'd have liked him to stay but with the amount of midfielders it's understandable and he was under contract so while he hasn't announced who he's signing for I'd assume there's a fee involved
Cummins to Rovers and Coustrain to Cork to be announced on Monday.
It will be interesting to see what Cummins brings to Rovers in the 2nd half of the season. He's the wrong side of 30, so one would think they'll be looking at longer term prospects at the end of the season if not in this window.
Conor Davis signs for Derry city
Another blow for UCD with Scales apparently gone too they'll be doing well to fill out a teamsheet tomorrow
Bristol media linking him with Bristol Rovers as well.
Must be getting very tight for UCD in terms of numbers , what is the squad at now ?
UCD will have to play the students at this rate.
Kerrigan and Keaney are rumored to be on the way to UCD from Sligo,not sure if its now or at the end of the season....
Well there's always the 19s of course. (And the 17s if we get really desperate!)
The squad at the moment is -
Conor Kearns 1
Dan Tobin 2
Evan Osam 3 (injured for the season)
Liam Scales 4
Josh Collins 5
Yoyo Mahdy 9
Danú Kinsella Bishop 10 (promoted from the 19s)
Jason McClelland 11
Richie O’Farrell 12
Seán McDonald 13
Jack Ryan 14
Luke Boore 15
Gavin Sheridan 16
Darragh Corcoran 18
Tom Murphy 20 (third choice keeper)
Paul Doyle 21
Mark Dignam 22
Evan Farrell 23
Aaron McGrath 24 (promoted from the 19s)
Scales may or may not be around by the weekend of course. So could be down to 14 of what we would have called our squad at the start of the season.
Coustrain joins us on loan, Cummins going the other way.
Waterford signed Sam Bone off Rovers
Bohs sign Keith Buckley,Danny Grant ,Mandriou, Levingson, Finnerty .Talbot and Ross Tierney for 2020

Limerick's Will Fitgerald to Pats. Looked good against Dundalk last year. Thought he'd end up with us or Rovers. Even Cork given the location.
Cant see a thread on managers, but what is the view from leeside on the new guy coming in as first team manager ? Initially I thought he was under Cotter, but hew will assume control now, as per Indo this am.
Strange choice ?
Licencing requirement becasue of Europe appointed 60 days after Caulfield left.
With all the other Sh1t going on in Cork getting thrown out of Europe would put the tin hat on it
Dean Dillon gone to America on a Scholarship.
Nice kid could'nt break into the first team but got his leaving cert in Ashfield college and is taking an alternate path.
Good luck to him, a college degree in the U.S is something that will stand to him whatever happens.
More and more of the young players in Ireland are going to have to look to mainland Europe and America for options the UK is becoming a world league where only the best can make it at the top (Premier , Championship) and the lower leagues just offer a "living" and a ten year "career"
It's a great opportunity. I heard of one guy, who is running a massive coaching school in Chicago, and the fees for it are incredible. All due to the college scholarship he got way back when, and ended up coaching high school football in the city. Think it may have been purchased by Bayern
Dean O'Halloran returning to Waterford from Bray (end of loan)
Dylan Thornton from Bohs to Bray (loan)
Dean Williams from Shamrock Rovers to Bray (loan)
