Very strange move by us to offload Kelly. Playing well and you couldn't doubt his dedication, after missing some of his sister's Wedding to play against Rovers. Leaves us very light up front. I'll give KL the benefit of the doubt but it does concern me.
Strange one alright, maybe we are making room for Damien Duff, who apparently is going to sign for all the Dublin clubs and play for a different team every week.Niall Quick is drawing up the the necessary rule change in consultation with his contacts from Malawai's second most popular sports channel.Quote:

He was injured and out for the season maybe five or six weeks ago. Akinade was signed to replace him. He was first choice and Kelly/Byrne usually off the bench.Quote:

No biggie with Dean Kelly leaving either, geezer had 5 goals to his name all season and about three quality performances but he was hardly an outstanding performer.
These clubs doing some striking merry-go-round with average LOI journeymen would do well to cast their eyes over to Ryan Swan.
He'd be expensive though as he's under 23. In other news Gary Shaw is not going to be sold to a LOI club this month but could go to England yet.

The latest foreign trialist for Harps comes by the name of Ata Ozbay, an American striker, in from the PSC Academy, the same folks we got Wilfried Tagbo from and that toured here in pre-season.
Wexford have signed ex Celtic reserve Paul Cahillane.
He's been mainly playing GAA last few years but had a huge 14-15 season in the LSL for hometown club Portlaoise.
fair enough. Was going off memory mainly.Quote:

Eric Foley to Longford possibly. Think he left Athlone once Mathews got the job coz they don't like each other.
The UCD keeper Corbett is bound to turn heads too. I was very impressed with him in the 1st leg.Quote:

Eric Foley is a player who has been constantly linked with LTFC in recent years, I know he can play a few different positions but can Drogs fans tell us what his man position is as I'd be eager to see the thinking behind this signing.
Central Mid is his best position. He's ok. His best attribute is his excellent free kicks.Quote:

Hopefully it's not true that we've signed him so because he simply won't get a look in at centre midfieldQuote:

Fun has been taken out of that signing by now it's been dragged out so much. Still, great to see that he's committed to at least another season as well as this one.
What's the chances of his mate Robbie Keane joining him next?
Boyhood dream and all that
Good player if he put his mind to it, but unlikely to happen. He fell out with Cooke in 2013, Horgan in 2014 & and now Mathews?Quote:

[Pat O'Sullivan] told RTÉ Sport: “I need to bring in quality players now to help us get out of where we are at. I don't see them in Ireland, so I am looking around. We can't get them from England, I would love to see the English windows match in Ireland because there is an awful lot of young players that come free in England at the end of their season and we can't sign them until July.
“And then the English season is open again so then we lose that chance generally.
“So what do we do? I'm sitting at home, I'm watching Shirley Valentine the other night with my wife Helen and I'm saying the Greeks are technically very good at football, austerity has to [have] had [an effect] and football must be suffering. So why not look at that?
“They are Europeans so why not look at them as regards looking at any other country. So, what we did was I got my daughter Pam to Google and find the players union in Greece and emailed them and told them what we were looking for. They have sent us details of certain players.
“We have spoken to the individual players and the terms and conditions we have agreed. Now we have to look at bringing them for trials when we are ready to do that which has to be done and in place by the end of this month. If I can find players do a job for me in Limerick, particularly in the short-term and possibly in the long-term, the Irish go to England and different countries so why can't the Greeks come here.”
It's a very interesting idea, have to hand it to him.
Only seen this now - I had posted in the other thread couple of days ago.Quote:

Don't get me wrong they may get a gem out of it, but any need to go into this detail? It makes the club look like a proper amateur organisation and its all the league needs with the goings on in Sligo and Bray over the last few weeks.
YES....the Greeks are coming,the players in ireland are no good ,we cant get the english,so lets get some Greeks ..sure their european too are they not, and their broke,makes perfect sense...............eh does,n it?Quote:
