That might not be gospel but its at least on a par with "Christy Fagan seen leaving Bray" : )
Hull would be believable imo
Paddy Barrett (CH) & Ciaran Kilduff (CF) of Dundalk and Colm Horgan (RB) of Galway allegedly are the names that have been popping up on City fans forums as possible signings. But if Maguire goes off to Preston we will be on the outlook for another striker and while Christy Fagan is the top choice, I reckon he will favour Dundalk to Cork, so we will have to scour the rest of the league clubs.

Cregg based almost solely on the fact he reminds me of a midfielder from 1956.
Some good players there, would expect a few of these to re-sign.Quote:

Seemingly Waterford in talks with Lee Grace from Wexford. Also, looking likely that Alan Reynolds is getting the managers job, with Pat Fenlon as a Director of Football. Rennie keen on a number of Cork 19's and Conor Ellis.
Every league manager was in Drogheda last Friday, bet all (premier league managers) were hoping Wexford would come through for two reasons, firstly Wexford would be no threat as they are one of the worst most predictable long ball sides of all time, no invention or will to play football and secondly so they could pick up some Drogheda Utd players for a bargain. Average age of Drogs is 22yrs some good young players, it will be interesting how many will remain at the club? Likes of Alan Matthews, Pat Fenlon, Collie O'Neill etc must have been delighted Wexford went down as they will be one less threat to them next season.
Lads born since the millennium playing senior football... eek...Quote:

:rolleyes:So yeah horrible long ball team with no invention or will to play football at all!
In fairness, I don't think three results with no context at all make any argument for or against Wexford's style of play.
Lee Grace is far too good for the 1st Division. I expect him to end up at an unnamed team in the WestQuote:

Spoke to Ellis on Monday night. He wants to go out on loan for 6 months or a year, but he wants to go to a Premier team. Obvioulsy that all depends on whether a Premier team want him or not.Quote:

Galway far more likely if a loans what he wants.Quote:

Still think galway is more likely. It'd be a bad sign of pat o sullivans new season humour if we started signing fellas on loan from cork. There's literally no point apart from being cheap.
Who is the good midfielder in the 19s down there actually? Little blonde guy
It'd hardly be that unusual for one club to loan players from a better club. It happens all the time.Quote:

In the context of where Limerick need to be at it just wouldn't make any sense apart from being cheap is all. :good:
Not all only the serious ones, why would Ollie H (presumably who you mean) be there? no money, horrible place to go to, relegation favourites for next season etcQuote:

Where we have a striker to play as our lone striker that can be blended into the team and kept for a few years like Rory Gaffney or Stephen O'Flynn, our last two successes upfront.
We have exactly zero strikers at the club. In the context of building a team signing a youngfella from cork for six months who presumably would have to play doesn't really make much sense.
Unless we're being cheap. :good:
Yes we do have a tiny amount of success (if gauging three games and losing is success) - Wexford conceded 70 goals (2.12 per game) and scored 31 (0.93 per game) this season - three results does not undo the fact that this is a team that rely on long balls into D Furlong and for runners like Paul Murphy (two good players by the way), Wexford have minimal/no creativity / poor discipline, no invention and will most likely remain in the first division for the foreseeable future (certainly players like Furlong; Murphy and Grace will go if they have any ambition) - you got to remember that Ireland beat Brazil a number of years ago 1-0 (Liam Brady) suppose naive people at the time may have thought if Ireland qualified for the world cup back them they would be contenders - disillusion just like playing up three results out of 33! The sign of a good team is progression and development - unfortunately Wexford's senior side have failed in these areas this season!Quote:

Or if you're envisioning needing more than one striker through the course of the season.Quote:
