I though we were short on wide players (of quality) and I feel kirbs addition and perhaps that of Duffy could be very astute...
Shaping with a 3 man midfield I think (James-Salmo-Kirbs) Behind a front three of (when fit) Crawley, Bermingham and Shaw.. Exciting times ahead...
good lord we actually do have a good squad it really happened. we'll just win ever game 3-2 ta feck.
Hope Duffy signs like the rest I thought he was great last time he was here.
I think Jamie must be 27/28 now i reckon..
He's 28 I think. I see the Town site says it's "likely" that Kirby will be the last signing. I guess it depends on how much more can be squeezed out of the budget.
I'm surprised that people liked Duffy. Thought he was a headless chicken last time round, and since the boyband thing I can't take him seriously.
Haha, I asked my missus about that band and she heard about them anyway, never knew about it myself..Quote:

Thats a 1st division standard Boy Band anyway :D
Kirbs.. Kirbs will tear you apart..
Welcome back Alan.
Extratime.ie reckon David McGill won't be joining us after all. What's gone on there? A bit disappointing but if there was a choice between him and Kirby then it's Kirbs every time.
Ever since he 'signed' McGill that is people have been saying to me that's not yet confirmed and things along those lines so obviously something going on there with regards to him not signing but as said above if it's between him and Kirbs there's only 1 option.
Alan kirby is a Longford town fan, alan kirby is a Longford town fan dadadadadaadadadadada great to see him back, legend.
He must have agreed to sign or TC wouldn't have told the club to announce it. He was up at training afterwards too according to some of the players on Twitter. Anyhow given that he wouldn't be fit until May anyway and there's always a doubt as to how a player will come back it may be for the best in the long run, good as he is when fully fit. I wonder if his u-turn allowed the club to up the offer to Kirbs a little, or whether somebody like Duffy might sign now instead?
I'd much rather McGill than Duffy!
Yeah I know but..and I genuinely don't know..it could have been McGill or Kirby or rather that losing McGill freed up a bit more to move towards what Kirby wanted. We'll have to wait and see what the circumstances are really. We might be able to get someone else in be it Duffy or anyone else. That said the club are working off a small budget and have done great do far by the looks of things.
Kirby and Duffy for McGill, wouldnt be bad business if it did plan out that way.
Just came across Jamie Duffy on Twitter https://twitter.com/#!/JamieBlvd he has over 1,000 followers looks like Keith Gillespie could have a new Town twitter rival :)
I think part of the reason he was let go by shels is that he was recovering from injury, and there were doubts whether he would come back to the level he was at.. I hope things work out for him, and maybe a short term deal when the summer window re-opens might still be on the cards..Quote:

How true that is would be another matter but apparently he didn't sign to us because he wanted to finish school first or something..
Hes class!
Yea, but I heard the reason was that he was contracted to another club, but we'll see!
Also, Owen Hargreaves has been released, maybe we could get him on a pay by play basis? :D
I'll take drogba,kalou and owen while were at it
wont be too expensive so ;)Quote:

They're both pretty useful, experienced players. Should improve the squad.
the club text I received confrd that the two lads are eligible to play tonight!

profiles on our two new signings! It rings a bell with Tony Griffiths once I read his profile. He had spells with Kilkenny City, Crumlin Utd(twice), Shels, and Mons
Willo McDonagh, from first impression looked good on the ball last week, a towering centre half and of course a threat going forward at set pieces. Will have to see more of him, but looked decent.Quote:

Delighted with the signing of Bayly on his day he can be a top class playmaker
Good player all right, bound to pick up a few cards with the refs in this division however. He's a hothead.
Hopefully thad a problem we won't have to deal with for a long time because right now we can't afford any more suspensions.....I take it ge won't get clearance to play in time for tomorrow? Fai are always slow with transfers.
whos GE???Quote:

GE our new south korean superstar :) ah no my big fingers really dont work that well on my Ipod anyway if Balyly can play tonight it would be a huge boost and even bigger if gillespie is back
We need it too.
