Ya they are supposed to be very good, especially the midfielder. Man City were about to take the Goalkeeper and midfielder but took a few other lads from the Right to Dream Academy instead. It was Man City that actually tipped Limerick off about coming over to have a look at these lads playing on a tour of England.Quote:

Tam's a good player getting on a bit, think hes 32/33 yrs of age he scored 8 goals for us in 22 games, hes a busy type of player and is famous for scoring our away goal against Skonto Riga in Latvia. Havent seen him the last couple of years but know hes still in touch with a few of the Derry playersQuote:

He might do a good job. Had a far few injuries but there's no doubt he is a decent player,if he can stay fit.
Danny Murphy has left cork city by mutual consent.
It was fairly clear against Pats when we had our starting left back (Dunleavy) sent off and Danny didn't come on, or play against Limerick in the league cup, that he wasn't going to be featuring this season.
He's given a long service to the club though, best of luck to him.
delighted for Maher.
Very good signing for Drogs
Agree .. Looks very interesting and encouraging given our small squad . Horgan has certainly past his test in terms of being able to put a decent squad together given his small budget.Quote:

Yeah, would echo that. Maher was very unlucky last year with Pats. Should do well for Drogehda.Quote:

Edit - here's a link.Quote:

Now there's a one-club man if I ever saw one. I wonder what happened behind the scenes there. Presumably Roddy has decided Deery is not going to be anywhere near the first team unless there's an injury crisis and Deery presumably doesn't like it.Quote:

However, Collins rubbed a few up wrong when the shipped out Higgins and caused a decent bit of acrimony with how he went about it. I dare say he isn't endearing himself to those he sees surplus/older heads at the club.
Wow, that's a strong statement... plenty of things people could call Roddy but I wouldn't have thought 'hateful' was one of them!
The Five Stages of Roddy
1: Support
2: Denial
3: Confusion
4: Outrage
5: Relegation
