I think the old ditty "If Byrne can play for Ireland so can I" captures my views on that.Quote:

Fair enough, I'm just surprised Dundalk would let him back. I respect him as a player, and he's not a bad guy, but he does have problems and I don't know if he'll ever really get over his demons.Quote:

That's a fine squad Lamper, vastly improved on last year, hope ye are challenging on all fronts this year.
Todays Star says Kudozovic may be heading back to Sligo, John Flood has joined Shels Bobby Ryan to Fingal and Joe Kendrick to Drogs, Waterford and Pats are looking at TImmy Purcell.
Who's Tim Purcell?
Hope so. Really happy with the squad myself. We have kept the best players from last year while adding some quality to it aswell.Quote:

tim purcell I believe is a midfielder and has being with UCD over the last few seasonsQuote:

They had a pretty serious falling-out as I recall that may have involved a practical joke - won't repeat the rumour hereQuote:

Waterford might have a use for him; if Pat's sign him, it'd further strengthen my opinion that they're going to struggle badly this season.
can we wait till a ball is kicked before assuming a team is gonna struggle. I thought Pats would have had a good season last season but we were gick in 90% of our games (bar europe)Quote:

Shaun Kelly has re-signed for Dundalk AFAIK.Massive news if confirmed,brilliant player

More squad updates will be given over the next week.
phew, brilliant. Feel a bit more confident about the season now.
Kelly was right up there as one of dundalks best last year...
Couple of young Shamrock Rovers players heading our way on loan by all accounts. They've a couple of prospects they want to give football to and Cousins has the connections there. Striker and a full back apparently.
Tom King from Longford Town is supposed to have signed for GUFC today thats 6 and counting.
this is probably a crock of bullcrap but ive just been told that brian mccarthy has had or is having a 3 day trial with atlethico madrid because of how he played for us when we had that friendly last year?
and no i dont believe it but sure this is the rumors thread
Good signing. A great lad apparently and he'll do well for ye.Quote:

This is correct. Athletico would have offered him a deal, only for they felt he had gone too old now to make the transition. Had he been 2-3 years younger, he would have signedQuote:
