Dont think he suits their style. Coleraine played a style that allowed him to score plenty

Anyways, any word re Conor O'Grady making a swan-song season with bit-a-red? Good utility player, imo every bit as good as Ventre, better actually, even at this point and considering the deniros dished out he would be economic.

Hadn't heard anything about O'Grady coming back. Would be an ok squad player but he wasn't setting the world alight in his last year or two with us I didn't think

Ross Gaynor is a quality signing for Sligo, great player.

As for O'Grady, if he does sign he'd be given a good reception down here anyway, really nice guy. I remember his first game against us after leaving, he scored in Turner's Cross and didn't celebrate... don't see that too much.

As per that LOI blog

Jaysus, that's a huge coup by wheeler dealer Roddy.

Did it as a favour to Mick O'Neill it seems after Croly jumped the boat. Maybe he was given something for hanging on for the Euro campaign, I'm not sure.

Didn't exactly set Finn Park alight either this season. Injured most of the season, and when he did play, the quality was clearly there but just lost his touch.
Would be a massive gamble for Sligo to take.

Good to see that happening from time to time, John Russell didn't celebrate a goal he scored in Terryland for Sligo before as well.

Any word on where Richard Brush is going? Will Shams re-sign him? Was sure he was coming to us as still lives here and wanted to get back afaik but with Rogers signed now it's not gonna happen.

Not really, he's from/lives in Sligo and is a Rovers fan so probably happy to sign on relatively low wage, it's not his only job. He'd be great to have around even if he doesn't get much playing time, gives it his all every time he plays for us.

Rumours have started from far less about other clubs on the always ultra forum and soon become fact.

Paul Cook to take over at Derry apparently.

Bit like the Evening Herald story that Cook was to take over at Shams. Never going to happen. Its Blighty or Bust for Cookie.

Not at all. He's a Rovers fan just like the rest of us. Like any fan Id say if you could be a squad player and get a game as a sub from time to time he'd jump at the chance. Aswell as that I think he could still do a job for us, especially when a game is tight with 15 minutes to go. Will bring passion and good experience to the dressing room too.

Sligo fans appear to be naive in the extreme when it comes to Cook.

While Shams' lot seem to know everything about him, Pat Fenlon and Pete Mahon.

Rico's up for a couple of jobs outside of Ireland, but Derry might suit him. He spent a good few years in the UK so it'd be like going home :-p Seriously he'd do a good job up north. Pat Dolan, hmm, can't see it.
