He hasn't scored a goal, got one assist (of sorts) when a pass deflected off a ref into Faherty's path against Drogheda and has never stood out as a Man of the Match contender. Not a fan of putting his foot into the tackle either.
That said, he plays a simple pass fairly well and seems fairly athletic. Can't see him dislodging O'Grady or Ryan to be honest.

Richie Ryan is out for the season so if he signs he will more than likely play every game.

Ryan is meant to be out for the season, would i be getting mixed up with McCann? Is he decent?

Is this soon enough....never had a McCann play for Galway.....EVER.

Would imagine it is McGrath though, unless its Russell.

It is definitely Michael McGrath.

We have signed Michael McGrath from Galway Utd today and he will be in contention for the weekend.

We have also signed Martin Nicolas Camano, a young centre-half from Spain.

'Martin Nicolas Camano'. Sounds like it could be like another 'Xano' to me. :)

We've now got the strength it depth that we needed this season. Its great to see Cook able to sign plenty of players and maybe alls he needed was time to get the team going again ? injuries played a big part in a miserable league season for us but now we cant really complain with all these players.

Sean Kelly has been far better for us. That said, there's nothing to say Macca won't do a good job for ye.

If we paid 10k for him, someone needs to be shot.

Sorry about that. I'm just used to aiming things at you.
