Not that we are blessed but bar galway's attacking options thats not a squad to fear and harps dont look like theyl make much improvement given their low budget, then again we could easilly go down this year.

Harps have basically the same squad as last season with a few added that will strengthen the squad depth, but we'll be depending on our defense being solid and hard to beat,have no doubt though we'll scrap for everything but we no doubt lack quality in the top half of the field.

The main thing for us is that we've not lost any of our main players.

Also, we're not finished signing players. We've to strengthen further yet.

Josh Mailey re-signs with Harps for 2016. He was approached by Derry to sign for them and played a friendly for them before Christmas but has chosen to stay with Harps.

Definitely agree with you. No club should fear us, but the one thing I take confidence from is our strikeforce have scored goals at this level and I don't see any other side that I would envisage finishing in the bottom half having as much firepower as we do.

Our wingers are lacklustre to say the least, we need at least one more... I'm happy with our options in the centre of the park with Connolly, Sullivan, Sinnott. Alex Byrne is expected to sign.

Our biggest weakness last year was our leaky defence, Cantwell missed over half the season with injury but was impressive when he played. Stephen Folan has a huge amount to prove with us, he is essentially Oji's replacement, although it won't be too hard to outshine him, he was atrocious for most of the year.

Conor Winn is now our number 1, we changed our 'keeper a ridiculous amount of times least year using Gleeson, Hanley, Winn and even Kevin Horgan on the last day of the season. We need a consistency at the back to give ourselves a good chance of pushing on. The final additions Dunne makes to the squad could define whether we're scrapping at the bottom again or pushing for mid-table IMO.

confirmed per our website:

Paul Skinner
Ian Molloy
Philip Gannon
James Mulhall
Conor Powell
Pat Flynn
Rhys Gorman
Noel Haverty
Mark Rossiter
Peter McGlynn
Kevin O’Connor

Kealan Dillon

no word back on don cowan resigning.

In the Mirror from yesterday it said that we are interested in Danny O Reilly the ex Fulham starlet who impressed at centre back in Oslo.

I've heard Don has re-signed for the season.

I think that's you answer. He hasn't been at any pre-season training sessions

Peers last player to sign for us

Confirmed as of 23rd February 2016
GK | Michael Slingerman
GK | Ciaran Nugent

RB | Gary Boylan
RB | Tobi Adebayo-Rowling
CB | Gavin Peers
CB | Tim Clancy
CB | Mick Leahy
LB | Regan Donelon

LW | Kieran Sadlier
CM | Craig Roddan
CM & RB | Jordan Richards
CM/AM | John Russell
AM | Jimmy Keohane
AM | Gary Armstrong
AM | Mikey Place

LAM | Liam Martin
RAM | Raff Cretaro
ST | Chris Lyons
ST | Philip Roberts
ST | Jaanai Gordon

So I think this is the Bray squad, so many announcements and no real list!

Goalkeepers:
Peter Cherrie
Aaron Shanahan
Sean Fogarty

Defenders:
Hugh Douglas
Sean Harding
Conor Kenna (c)
Alan McNally
Paul Finnegan
Curtis Murphy

Midfielders:
Ryan Brennan
Mick Daly
Alan Byrne
Karl Moore
Mark Salmon
Jason Marks
Conor Early
Robbie Creevy
Dylan Connolly

Forwards:
Dean Kelly
Ger Pender
Andrew Lewis
Gareth McDonagh

Also some of the u19’s have moved to the Senior team:
Daniel Blackbyrne
Paul Murphy
Sean Noble
Troy Carey

I'd have Conor Earley and Alan Byrne down as Defenders in that Bray list with Gareth McDonagh in Midfield!

Alan Byrne has played in midfield every time he's appeared for them so far this year

Byrne played in midfield against St Pat's in the LFA Senior Cup match last Saturday, sat just in front of the back four in a 4-1-4-1. Reports on the Waterford loss (all from the same source by the looks of it!) says he played midfield in that game so Dublinwanderer is safe enough in listing him as midfield. :-)

Early is a winger, he was just played as a left back as we had no one else during his last stint. McDonagh is a winger so would be midfield alright.

McDonagh was done as playing right full back against Waterford, Dylan Connolly down as playing right wing and Alan Byrne was down as playing midfield. If that's any help.
