Forgot to mention the useless Mick O'Donnell and the comically inept Peter Hynes. Ronnie Henry was crap too.

I look forward to Emeka Onwubiko, Robbie Benson or one of the other young lads we have running at him for 90 minutes

Half the players we signed down the years from Monaghan, Paul Smith being one, Ciaran Quinn, Ashley White(who never played a full game).

He looked promising as a schoolboy international. Think he went the way of the GAA though

Jesper Jorgensen, Mark Leech, Marco Rapetti, Chris Armstrong, Yeboah Mensah, Shaun Fagan, Stephen Gavin, Juan Rojas, Dimitri Brinias

did yeboah not get badly injured in his first game and had to be paid off???

He suffered severely from migraine which occurred more and more regularly after matches...twas decided it may be triggered by heading the ball - crucial as a centre-half as ye know so he was advised to quit. Since changing to GAA the problem stopped. Still coaches for FAI as far as i know. Wouldnt say he was a bad signing as such...not in the same league as Stuart Connolly (for which we paid a fee) and his dodgy big toe:confused:

Was just about to post this :D Have you ever seen a midfielder hospital pass the ball back to his keeper so much? Shocking performance from the most over-hyped player we've ever had in this league. He was intent on giving us a goal tonight. Hilarious stuff though.

Ya it was, I was at the game aswell. He just didn't seem strong enough, great skill though. I remember he played against Sligo ina friendly down in Corofin, and was class. Thought he was going to be a great signing but he got injured and parted company.

Another bad buy of ours that deserves a mention, was the Russian Vladimir Antanamov

for longford
robbie martin, david freeman - wouldn't score in a whorehouse with a twenty up his hole, ian wrexler, dean barrett, barry ferguson - muck, can never be forgiven for that peno miss, paul keegan, the list of sh!t signings is endless. jamie duffy, myler9 idon't think he knew how to run) Mark Rutherford, the worst player to watch a footbal match, nevermind play one.

Was Robbie Martin so bad? He was decent enough for UCD, and Longford were about our level when he moved.
