Seems to be a trend going about,

Quigley bust up with Croly - Linked to Limerick
Purcell bust up with Dunne - Linked to Limerick
Dan Murray possibly not signing for Cork - Linked to Limerick
Griffin deal looks like falling through - Linked to Limerick
Davin O Neill not signing for Cork - Linked to Limerick

not one has ended up signing or even training with us yet we are the first to be linked with them.

........had a bit of a run in with the boss this morning.
Limerick , how much are you offering ?:D

In fairness, 95% of the League of Ireland were better players than Twigg.

Pope Benedict has a niggle hardly likely to feature this season, there is good word from a high up ecclesiastical source that Peter Turkson of Ghana is a shoe in for next Vatican supremo and is expected to be odds on before the conclave.

Darren Murphy, formerly of Cobh, has left Macclesfield to return back to Ireland. Potential move to the LOI one would think

Very good player for us before we sold him (Cork City). Woul dbe an asset to any team if he's still as good as he was.

He's signing back with Cork City

If its true then that is a fantastic signing, can play centre back or in the middle of the park, one of the best headers of a ball that I have ever seen in Loi, likes a tackle aswell!!

Thought Tommy Dunne said the squad was complete?

I'm sure if a player like Darren Murphy comes along there's always room!!

True but I also would have said cork are fairly strong in midfield and centre back.

Ya but its a long season and you need strenght and depth, plus it he wants to use the 451 option then Darren is the perfect holding midfielder

Ha !! well possibly, there was a mention that the deal could be back on, mentioned in local paper, The Argus, yesterday.

Supposedly Derry have finally signed Griffin?!:

Transfer News: the longest transfer saga in the LOI this close season has finally come to an end as Derry hve finally completed the signing of Mark Griffin; still no news on whether Derry hve agreed a compensation package with Dundalk or if they're going to a tribunal.....jp/Derry

Midfield is probably the one place we don't need an addition but I guess if true Tommy feels it's not worth turning down Murphy. It's certainly our strongest position though.

well he was hoping to sign Garry Buckley but that doesn't look likely now so maybe Darren Murphy can replace him.

We actually don't have that many central midfielders. Healy, Duggan, Morrissey and Lenihan at the moment. A 5th wouldn't be that excessive.

i believe buckley has signed a deal just not confirmed yet..healy duggan and morrissey were excellent the other night .duggan needs to be better than last year were he was terrible...the big bonus for cork will be dan murray the man is fitter than 5 years ago looks class act again and in shape.goalkeeper will be the death of cork....

Surely a year or two of premier football would stand him in good stead for a move across the water!

After all the bull**** coming out of the Brandywell over the last 8 weeks.......

"Derry City Chairman Philip O'Doherty refused to confirm whether the two clubs had reached agreement on compensation or if the case will be taken to tribunal"

I wish Griffin the very best of luck. He could go in one of two directions - sensational and attract a cross-channel move (attitude of 2011), or could bomb out completely (attitude of 2012)

Sounds like a proper header so don't think he's anyone's loss.
