Phillip Gannon - God have mercy on whatever club he spoofs his way into. One of the worst midfielders to ever wear the red and black.

I'm amused by Stephen Bradley's comment on the club website
He is about to complete his 4th season with Dundalk (2016 being his least effective one). In 2012 he had a poor single season with St Pats while he hardly set the league alight during the previous season with UCD.Quote:
"We have got one of the best wingers in the country in Darren Meenan. His record over the last five-six years shows that,"
Darren has been very effective for perhaps 3 of the last 5-6 seasons. He is now 30 years old.
Are his best days behind him? Time will tell
Manager talking up player shock
It's probably just that Darren has been trying hard to impress him and the Rover hierarchy for the last 5-6yearsQuote:

“Every other player gives that extra 5 to 10% against us, I saw this happen as a player and now I’m seeing it again as a manager.”
I have to be honest. I don't spend as much time reading what Stephen Bradley says as you do, so I'll defer to your greater knowledge.
Pat Flynn, as a confirmed Rovers fan, was giving him stick on Twitter so would assume that's where he's off to all right. He has ability he's just very yellow.Quote:

In general Rovers have flown below the radar since 2011. Having headcases like Gavin Brennan, Gary McCabe, Kilian Brennan and Danny North has always attracted interest; the recent annual implosions and Placid Casual's regular bouts of apoplexy also keep the pot boilingQuote:

In your lifetime or since you joined foot.ie in August?Quote:

Don't tar us all with the same brush.Quote:

Always though he was a bit wasted when played in deep midfield 2. Should always be an attacking midfielder imho. The intro of corry and lopes will hooefully enable him to play further forward
Shelbourne's player of the season Jack Brady has signed for Longford. He's a 19 year old goalkeeper. Interesting signing.
Keepers Ball drives him to matchesQuote:
