Any idea of the name?
There's an Alan McGreal on the bench tonight according to extratime. Could be this chap, he's from Dublin.

Sounds decent but not so sure if the standard he played in would be great.
Was with Crumlin Utd last apparently, didnt see enough of him last night, whizzed a free kick over the bar that was about it.
If hes anything like Morley we should be happy.
Yeah he played for them against Pats in the cup it seems. Appears to be the same Alan McGreal from the US college soccer link above.

heard last night that we are also in for James Keddy the transfer would have went through only that the deadline was against us. Wasnt he with Crumlin too?
Todays mail it says that we signed a Jeff Hunt on loan .Im not sure where we got him from?
Jeff flood that should have read not hunt, centre half from rovers
And Keddy is managin Bluebell, cant see him comin into play for us
Jeff Flood is Anto Flood's younger brother apparently. Turned down Athlone at the start of the season.

Keddy will have retired from playing and taken his tax back. This rules him out of registering as a player - even on amateur forms - at any professional level in this country.
Alan Mcgreal looks like a good prospect he made a great impact against harps yesterday he has an eye for a pass and is always looking to link up with the front men and he can play up front too apparently so I'm very happy with that signing.
further town ins:
Thomas Crawley St Pats loan
Sean Skelly Drogheda Utd
Jean Biansumba English non league( not sure of team but he used to play for notts forest)
out:
piot sczebowski
Sean Skelly is a great signing and I was expecting Piotr to go alright :(
Jean Biansumba - looks good, big and strong, skillful and a powerful strike by the looks of things.

I was told today by one of the extratime lads that jean was on trial with cork city at the start of the year.. Jean has being training with us since the start of the season there was a hitch in the deal which prevented him signing for us last march! got the info from one of the cork city lads on the general forum we signed jean from southern league side shepshed dinamo based in leicestershire
Gints Freimanis (remember him) is due to feature against Millwall tonight. He's out of contract at the minute and looking for a club over here.
Ah yes, Gints. Our special guest for all such games. He could do a job for us I'd say but there wouldn't be much money in it for him I'd imagine.
He hee he. Fond memories of Jeff Kenna there
what club is gints playin for nowadays? what was he like at pats dodge and did he make many first team appearances??
afaik hes quality but very injury prone, or thats what i've heard anyway
Heard from a reliable enough source that you's released Stephen Conlon, Paddy Collins, Lee Roche and Dan Reilly last night.
Hmm, a bit surprised with Collins being let go if true but we did bring in a couple of defenders. Rouse must be fit again if Conlon is gone and Hunt's injury must not be too bad. Both Roches gone, LTFC (the poster on here that is!) will be pleased. I've heard from someone who would know that we'll be signing Freimanis after he impressed in the Millwall game. Don't know if he's signed yet or not though. They'd have to wait for international clearance etc.
I never rated collins, doubt anyone did.. They must believe the defenders we brought in are better (and I hope to god they are) Have heard nothing but good things about Freimanis so hopefully he signs, used to work with my brother a few years ago before pats signed him.
All in all thou I think the quality of player we have brought in are superior to the ones we are releasing so the future looks very bright, could give promotion a good crack next season if we keep heading in this direction
I thought Aidan Roche had some good games tbh. He was very good v Rovers last year in the cup. Lee Roche didn't do an awful lot I'll give you that one but he got a couple of important goals. I'd agree on Collins overall but he's young he could make a career for himself somewhere.
Cowan on trial with Millwall.
Not a huge surprise re Cowan if true their manager was apparently very very impressed with him. Still under contract to us until November so we'd get a few quid if they took him now but he'd be a massive, massive loss to us for the rest of the season.
Those four named above have definitely been released by the way.
Expect a couple more signing announcements soon!
I knew this was going to happen with Cowan I hope we dont lose him know but at the end of the season he'l definitely be playing somewhere else and hopefully it is England, btw I heard at the last match that we gave Cowan a new contract so that if someone did come in wed be covered can anyone confirm this?
yep it is definitely confirmed about Don Cowan as I heard this in the shopping centre today! I hear that he will be goin over to Millwall on trial and if he goes for good we will get a fantastic deal for him.. You never know he could be our next Dave Savage and really deserved as he has bein top notch for us!
Heard a big figure been mentioned 2night it would be good to get it would be massive for the club, Don had an off night tonight hope he isn't been effected to much by the chance of going to England
Well we've no game next week so he's free to go over there now for the week and try to impress. Didn't have his best game tonight but he got no protection from the ref and he was always our biggest threat. That said Morrissey I think it was for Cork is a very good defender.
