Had heard Bohs were in for him (and about half a dozen others so how much of that is true remains to be seen) but it seems there's a bit of a gold rush up north at the moment with a few teams having relatively wealthy backers. Others may be spending to try to keep up! Granted you could say similar about our leagueQuote:

Would agree with this, I saw the name which triggered a note, then I thought what has he done last 4-5 years, really not that much.Quote:

Starting to get very worried. Half our starting lineup gone. One or two of the lads resigned not good enough and our only new outfield signing done for drink driving. Plenty of time to put it right but not looking overly promising so farQuote:

Fullback is one of those positions that seems increasingly difficult to fill with a decent starter never mind depth! Bohs are probably covered for RB with Smith as a starter and mountney as a rotation option but there isn't a single LB at the club and there was only 1 (Kirk) last year who wasn't up to it.Quote:

This local journo always has rock solid inside info on Cheltenham, so you can take it as confirmed:Quote:

Harps have signed striker Gavin Hodgins from Shelbourne
He was poor on loan to Glenavon last season, though admittedly he was badly-utilised. Usually played as lone striker when he didn't have the height, physicality or link-up play to suit that role. That said, he seemed to be a decent finisher, so might do OK with a target man or good number 10 as a foil for him.Quote:

Aiden O'Brien has departed Shels for family reasons. You could see flashes of his ability however his fitness looked off the pace still would have liked to see him have a full pre-season he probably has a League 2 or National League club lined up with the transfer window re-opening
Kyle O'Connor and Adam Wixted both signed for Athlone after previously being with Longford ….
Unrelated, but I would be concerned for both goalkeeper wise.Quote:

It's a while ago, but Matt Connor was terrible on loan to Bray in 2023.
Matt Connor is one of the worst I've ever seen..Quote:
