He's decent enough but I don't think he'd be first choice there. Can play in a few different positions so a good squad player.Quote:

Have always thought we should pick him up, especially since he fell out of favour. Would be a good signing and a fresh start for him. Still very young also.Quote:

I don't think they mean on loan. You can't have that many on loan. Since he has control of Waterford, he can move them across as he and the players choose.Quote:

Would he want to uproot his family to Eindhoven?Quote:

I'd forgotten he had a kid but from what I can recall he or she are only a couple of years old? Most Dutch speak English really well I can't imagine it'd be that hard to settle. You're only an hour or so further away than England on a plane.
Delighted we've kept our best young players (hopefully Ashe signs too).
Need a bit more experience now. Gavin is a great start!

Brennan could be a very good signing. He has something to prove after his disastrous time with sham rovers.Quote:

Gavin Peers to Pats, not very impressed with that. Good news is that Ian Birmingham, Conan Byrne and Michael Barker have signed again.
Galway utd u19 keeper Kevin horgan said he is signing for rovers. He played a few first team games towards end of the season.
PSV are in the group stages of the Champions League almost every season and win the Eredivise regularly. Why he wouldn't want to go to Eindhoven is the better question. If his choice is there or a lower league English team then it's a no brainer if you ask me.Quote:

Yes, If we qualify for the knock out stages of the Europa League. Dundalk have also put excellent contract offers on the table.Quote:

I'd agree a few more with good experience like G Brennan will compliment the younger players re-signed - fair play to the drogs for moving quickly to sign up their stars from last season - still a few more from that group that will hopefully be added over the next few days/weeks!Quote:

McCaffrey was on loan from the sham rovers. Is this another loan or a permanent move?Quote:

Two good signings I understand they were both free to sign (Rovers contracts ran to end of season) so great bit of business for the Drogs, Purdy really came into it latter part of season - McCaffery (thought there be a few other clubs chasing him) scored some vital goals, P Mahon is putting a decent young side together as most of those re-signed average age comes in around 21-22 yrs of age! With the two Brennan's; S Thornton and possibly few more experienced lads staying in the premier div becoming more realistic.Quote:

Clarke is pretty obviously better than him on and off the ball, in terms of workrate and quite clearly attitude too.Quote:

Looks like it's a guff off season from us then.
All bluster and nonsense and end up with Dave scully and ucds third choice centre half.
Fagan my arse.

Mark Timlin is coming back to Derry, according to the Mirror. He'd be a great signing for us.
He was always excellent for Derry last year. Had some excellent showings for st pats but also a few mediocre ones when I felt he was played out of position as a striker. In fairness, pats centre midfield going missing for the whole season probably didn't help him.Quote:

He didn't play once as a striker for Pats, and his last decent performance was in April.Quote:
