I heard he was offered a deal in November, he agreed to it but nothing more was done after that. Hopefully he is signed up. I'd say a few nore will be signed in the next week or so from last seasons squad with pre-season starting back. Taylor had said on the radio also that he wants to get a look at some new players in training before signing them.Quote:

That last bit worries me a little bit. Not many players will go on trial at a club unless they're really struggling to get a contract elsewhere. I'd imagine that any LOI players that could have improved us are nearly all tied up.Quote:

Any update on the new assistant manager?
Axel's Twitter "Limerick FC or not.......Thinking"
The club must be back in talks with him. Hopefully at the supporters club meeting tomorrow night and Q&A with Stuart Taylor we might get more news re-signings.
Would be a poor decision to sign him again his attitude is poor he has shown he doesn't want to be here. The only reason he would have any interest now is cos he can't get anywhere else. Taylor is always talking about how he only wants people that want to be here and have the right attitude so i hope he sticks to that. We need a new winger and striker imo not just the same frontline as we had last season.Quote:

He is a good finisher though and very pacey. Doesn't seem like a winger though going on last season.
Attitude on the pitch seemed ok attitude off it was one of the main reasons he was let go i was told. I think if he is signed back its a desperation signing tbh cos we cant find someone else.Quote:

Anyone heard anything on new assistant manager? I'd like to see someone "local" just because they'd know the Irish players in the league a bit better.
Wouldn't be surprised though if the junior lads that were there the last time didn't have an interest in more training and looking at them.
What happened to Malky?
Did he get a better offer or did Taylor get rid of him?
Some said he just had enough and wanted to go back home. Someone else said Taylor didn't like how close Malky was to the players. Club have been very quiet on it.Quote:

Cork are weighed down with strikers already surely? Between that and Clarke's previous reluctance to commit to senior football I would be surprised if that comes to anything (not doubting his ability by the way).Quote:

i think dave o leary was on one of the training videos which is good and hopefully signed but the squad isnt as strong as last year.defence seems to be fine with what they have signed but midfield and up front is a bit light.early days yet though.
More good news coming soon.
Taylor said in an interview yesterday they have agreed terms with another midfielder. He never said though whether that was O'Leary or someone else. Fingers crossed it's O'Leary and a new addition.Quote:

Would be disappointing alright but at this stage it just doesn't seem like it will ever properly happen between Clarke and Limerick.
how many times did Clarke sign with us only for it not to work out?Quote:

Including 21s...hes joined us 5 times and left us 5 times.
Last time he was here he was doing well and it was not his choice to leave.
don't get me wrong I think hes good .top of the range .but a big step up,and yes he is well able to compete with the best should go for it.Quote:

I wonder has Taylor talked to him at all for this year. The was a rumour about why he didn't sign in the summer but I don't want to mention it here as it is as far as I know just a rumour.
We're supposedly in talks with a winger who played around 10 games for Limerick last season. To use the term lightly and without a hint of racism, he's a black fella. Any idea who that is? No idea whether it's on loan or permanent.
I would think it's Carel Tiofack. He was an Irish Under 19 international and was over with Ipswich and Cadiz B. He doesn't look like a bad player to be honest and I would think will do a fine job for Harps in the first division. He has a lot of pace and a decent touch. He signed for us in July and got a run near the end of the season. He did ok but not enough to earn a contract renewal it seems. Nice guy too.Quote:

Thats what i'd be worried about too. If it's not happening then fine just be honest and say it. They seem to be sticking by it that they are coming though.Quote:
