Cork City could be the team to beat with that signing! what sort of wages will he get I wonder? Will he get a paydrop compared to his top flight Australia days?
Miller's probably going to be great here but Cork lost their best midfielder last year so the improvement won't be that significant
A good news story off the field though, which always helps
I see what you did thereQuote:

Joke that we've let Patterson go. Been our top scorer the past two seasons, and the League's top scorer in 2013. It's pathetic how much we've gone backwards as a club.
It will be interesting to see the impact he can make and at 34. He was a tidy player though, will he play with his old mate Healy in the centre?Quote:

Wow, that is a very poor squad, Derry could really struggle this year.
We're expecting mid to lower half of the tableQuote:

If I was the coach I'd try to bring another defender and that's all. At the moment I would say 6-7
Personally, I hope Derry do absolutely crap this season.
But I thought Sligo were your real rivals?Quote:

I wouldn't be too worried Limerick look like they're going to be right s***e. We've only got 10/11 players signed and most of them are from the under 19's and not up to premier division football imo. Something has to give down here with the move back to the Markets Field coming up. There's no point trying to build some momentum with a team that would struggle in the first division never mind the premier!Quote:

Squad updated. Delighted to have held onto Gleeson, excellent goalkeeper.
Goalkeepers: Ger Hanley, Conor Gleeson
Defenders: Stephen Walsh, Kilian Cantwell, Colm Horgan, Marc Ludden
Midfielders: Alex Byrne, Jason Molloy, Ryan Connolly, Gary Shanahan, Paul Sinnott, David O'Leary, Aaron McDonagh
Strikers: Enda Curran, Jake Keegan (subject to being granted a work permit)
As per the Gleeson/Curran/McDonagh announcement (http://galwayunitedfc.ie/curran-glee...onagh-re-sign/), this is the Galway United squad as things stand: Ger Hanley, Connor Gleeson, Colm Horgan, Kilian Cantwell, Stephen Walsh, Marc Ludden, Gary Shanahan, Paul Sinnott, Alex Byrne, David O’Leary, Ryan Connolly, Aaron McDonagh, Enda Curran.
No mention of KEegan or Molloy.
I would have thought it crucial to capitalise on the novelty crowds at the new Marketfields with a team that is not just making up the numbers as cannon fodder. Easy said I know. Maybe Bray's problems will mean Limerick get passed on the unrelagtables badge.Quote:

They're not in hideous shape though, defence is similar with O'Donnell a real prospect in goal and Leahy in for Folan and the midfield isn't massively weakened with O'Conor coming in for Lynch. It all basically rests on whether Clarke can get them their goals or not but they're not exactly being left in the trails of Bray, Bohs and Drogs.
In goals Barry Ryan and Shane Cusack are gone.Quote:

From the midfield that finished the season Lynch, Hughes, Djillali, Doherty are all gone or not re-signed.
Gaffney and McManus gone from up front.
I was assuming Oji, Leahy, Hughes and Nzuzi would stay therefore only really meaning Ryan, Folan, Lynch and Gaffney were lost from the XI. If the others go as well I'm well on board the Limerick will be dire bandwagon.
Ya it looks like all of those will be gone and we are now looking at local junior players to fill up the rest of the squad.Quote:

Yep heard that alright, he was with us before in 2012 and 2013. He was at the game tonight but wasn't in the squad. Good player mind you. He isn't in the list as the club haven't announced it. Hearing rumours of Johnny Bonner training with us as well.Quote:
