He was at Hamilton with him. Played with us, Shels and most recently Drogheda.

Might do would make sense if he knows the new manager. Wouldnt be a bad signing very tidy central midfielder only thing is if Dave O'Leary stays we have 3 very good players there already.

Not much to Sullivan's game - can't pass, has terrible positional sense, throws the odd wild tackle in and doesn't have a great first touch.

Yeah but I hear he's a great judge of coach.

Funny that, in his brief spell with us, I found him to be quite the opposite. Great range of passing and loved getting his foot on the ball and starting moves. Didnt fit into system to get ahead of Crowley and Foley in the middle but was a great sub to bring on, either when chasing a game or looking to see one out. Maybe he looked terrible in Matthews system, although most would.

Ya I found him to be decent enough. He worked very hard in most his games for us and seemed to have potential to get better. I wouldn't mind seeing him sign for us but I would think he would be a sub a lot if O'Leary re-signs.

I thought Sullivan was good enough when he was with us. Not the most creative, acted mainly as a shield in front of the defence, but did a pretty good job at that. I was disappointed he left.

We haven't announced any signings as yet so it's possible it's done but not announced yet. The club have been working away in the background by all accounts but there's been unusually few details leaked.

Now they would be two quality signings in areas that limerick need to strengthen to mix it with the big boys.
