He's agreed to go to Galway by all accounts. We're well set up in most positions in fairness though if we could move Hynes on and bring in another striker that could improve us.
Sell Hynes and get an alud winger, we'd be grand then really.
Bring back old man Mick Lee and Tom Crawley!
we need to sign a winger! love to see Crawley back but he went to Australia last i heard, as for hynes i dont see him going but i would like to see him got rid of, he hasnt done anything to impress me to date for him to stayQuote:

Last year he brought in Kevin O Brien, Dean Ebbe, Ryan Connolly and Rhys Gorman, so I think there will be some movement again this year
We were badly hit with injuries at this stage last season, i'd be surprised if they are willing to fork out money for extra players at the moment.
I've given Hynes every chance but he is just infuriating at this stage....i'd like to see him shipped out but can't see it happening...
Wanna re-title this as the Hynes out thread 😂
Is young Carrigy still signed for ye? Is he available from July or was the transfer scrapped altogether?
The last I heard, which was a couple of months ago admittedly, was that the plan was for him to train with the first team and be available from July. He's been playing GAA for his local team in the meantime as well I believe. There were complications to do with the LOI transfer deadline back in February as he was under 18 and it was an international transfer. In short, we'll know in July!
We have played 11 league games, 11 starts for sully,5 for shaw and 5 for hynes, sully has played 898 minutes, shaw 529 and hynes 363, sully has scored 10, shaw 1 and hynes 0...
Move over Marty...there's a new stats master in town...Quote:

If Mister X is who I think he is he's just someone who has been going to every game, not a member of the dressing room.
Yes agree with whats been posted above re a winger. Having seen all the teams in the league this year (apart from Shels) if we can get the ball out wide quickly and good delivery from a pacy winger, we should create a lot more chances. Most teams sit back against us, we need to stretch teams to give our midfield and full backs more room to operate.

If there is a chance to get Enda Curran in I would take a chance on him.
Already agreed to sign for Galway I believe.Quote:

I have absolutely no doubt in my mind he will sign for Galway and they will win the league

From what I was told a couple of days ago we were looking at bringing in 3 players. One of them was Curran, who Cousins approached after been released. Curran has told Cousins that he's going to sign with Galway. But don't be surprised if Curran drags it out again like last season to 'decide' who he's joining.
He's from Galway isn't he? Makes sense for him to sign with them now that they can afford to give him a few quid.
He will be on the same wage structure as the other players if he signs. He hasn't been training with us though like the other players coming in have.
He's away on holidays at the moment be interesting to see what happens when he comes back, for me hel never be professional enough to make it at the top level like so many young Irish footballers unfortunately but he'd make a very good FD player for sure if his heads screwed on.
Anybody of note gone?Quote:

Opens July 1st and closes end of month
Story with russell? He wasent on the bench in galway and TC did say he was releasing 1 or 2
TC apparently confirmed Russell has left us in the match programme last night (as per Marty's post on the main forum). May have wanted to move on as he wasn't getting a game I guess. Didn't set the world on fire when he did play in fairness but we could do with bringing in a replacement.Quote:

Thought Russell was dirt to be honest!
