Looks like Graham Cummins is on his way out of Cork they will need a serious replacement for him.
gutted to see him go but given that hes not proven in the premier - he is 24 years old and would be out of contract in the winter we have no choice
if we dont sell him now hell walk for nothing in 12 months. I doubt we will be able to replace him though
Looking at the PFAI free agents list, there aren't many names left. Jake Kelly is still free? Stephen Flynn? A recall for Escuche-Candau?
Thought Kelly would be signed up by now great player.
Kelly and Stephen O'Flynn are both training with Pats. Kelly has tweeted that he's 'sorted' for the season
Heard strong rumours Stewart Grecian could resign for Derry
Danny Lafferty on way to Burnley for £175k with add ons
Leyton Orient captain Stephen Dawson looks set to jump up a division to Barnsley. He's only 26 too - thought he was a good bit older.

According to Rte we have signed Richard Brush as well as handing new contracts to Ciaran Kelly and John Dillon. http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2012/0130/laffertyd.html
I am concerned as to where we can get goals from as with Graham we had someone who could get 10-15 goals easily this season.Quote:

We have a good squad together but a lack of goals could be a concern unless we bring in a suitable replacement.
Vinny Faherty could be on his way to you lot.Quote:

Right call I think, but I can't see how we'll replace him.
In fairness, Davin O'Neill is a ready made replacement. Proven striker in first and premier. Should be no problem for goals.Quote:

Heard Vinny Faherty was training with us as mentioned above. Would be pleased to sign him.

Can't see him getting up to much in the premier, he was very poor last year with Limerick whenever he played and was injured more then he wasn't.
I disagree, disagree, and, finally, I agree.Quote:

He scored one hat trick against ye. Never did anything else! His ability is undoubted, but his energy levels and concentration leave a lot to be desired. Saying this, the step up in level could be exactly what he needs. I wish him the best.Quote:

Good move for O'Flynn, if he stays fit he might bang in a few goals. If chances are created he'll take them.
I think O'Flynn knew he wasn't goin to get much game time at Limerick, good move for him if he sorts out the non-stop bitchin at team-mates and stays off the treatment table!
His profile picture is of him holding a gun. I like where this is goingQuote:

Paul Byrne has signed for Shels apparently, he impressed on Monday night, bagged 2 headers. Anyone else have any opinion on him?
Got a lot of stick from Bray fans when he was there, IMO he was a very good player and got some important goals, excellent in the air and has a good attitude and work ethic, hope he can stay fit for ye..Quote:

Decent for us two years back has potential, lacks a bit of pace but if he keeps his head down he will be a good signing for $helsQuote:
