Thats a very good signing for Athlone. Would have thought he'd been a level or 2 above Athlone to be honest, so fair play.

He definitely has ability but he's very up and down. He was outstanding for us when he was on loan from Shels, then when signed permanently he wasn't quite the same, only showed a few flashes of what had impressed so much.
He went to Rovers in 2007, afaik, and can't remember how he did there. Think he scored on his debut for them though.
Word is that Micheal Funston has left Harps having had enough of the current management.
Yeah, i think so. Fantastic engine and attitude but not always the best on the ball. Hopefully we'll see Hegarty leave and Funston back in Blue.
Not really, we were p!sh then too. Sure it took to the last minute to get an equaliser against Kildare the week before we played ye and last minute equaliser against Mervue the week after.
Funston has been our best player for some time now, he has played at left back, right back, left mid, right mid and up front at times but his best position is centre mid, as A said, his workrate is top notch and he could easily play at Premier level.
Pity Hegarty never saw that, unless he is from Derry he will get the blame for poor team performances.
Liam Miller has been training with City for the last few days,but he's not signing.According to Doolin he's just keeping fit for the Ireland Friendly against Nigeria at the end of the month.
Few rumours from News of World today
Shamrock Rovers interested in Graham Gartland and Graham Barrett. I doubt Gartland would come back after getting promoted to SPL. Barrett have heard very little about lately, he's a Tallaght lad though If memory serves me right
Jay O'Shea to MK Dons - Think he's probably better than League 1, but might be a good level for him to go in at.
What was the story with Darren Meenan being released by Shels?
Thought he was a decent player
Nonsense reports based on the fact that they're both from Tallaght. Gartland just signed an extension with St. Johnstone.
