So who is confirmed to have signed for next season of the current squad plus any rumours???
Does anyone know anything?
Kenny was in the paper the other day saying 10/11 of the players were already signed up, didn't give names but did say there had been interest in Connolly but that we was already on a 2 year deal and expected him to stay.Quote:

Good stuff! Hope they announce who has signed soon, looking forward to seeing what they can put together for March! :)Quote:

If we can add another central defender, wide midfielders and a top goalscorer we could be a good position!
Also, i seen Gavin Holohan left Cork, he would be great too! Christy fagan would be class upfront but he is linked with Cork and Dundalk so doubt that we would sign him!!
Lewis not interested in coming back, from what I heard, dundalk have already offered 50k for connolly but Bray refused and also say that connolly is not leaving.
Insane of Bray if thats even remotely trueQuote:

Ger Pender, Jason Marks, Alan Kehoe re-signed.
Europe is definetly within grasp. Different to last season. Cooke was an idiot!

Looking positive so far
So currently we have:
GK
Cherrie
Defenders:
Kenna
Kehoe
Clancy
Midfielders:
Marks
Salmon
Sullivan
Connolly
Noone
Forwards:
Pender
That's Dundalk's problem. Nobody's going to accept an offer like that when everyone knows they're packing millions.Quote:

Hearing rumours that Gary McCabe has or is about to sign up. If it's correct does this mean that Connolly might be moving on, hopefully Connolly staying also. .
Hughie's signed.
It looks like the new website is updating the squad as players sign, if thats the case we have a really good squad together already!
Gk: Cherrie and Steacey
Defenders: Douglas, Clancy, Kenna, Lynch, Harding, Kehoe
Midfielders: Sullivan, Salmon, Moore, Connolly, Noone, Brennan, Marks, Early
Forwards: Pender, Kelly
This is not a bad squad already! If the rumours are true and the likes of Fagan, McCabe, Waters, Meenan and Holohan all sign or even a few of em sign we will really be pushing the top teams!
Lads as a matter of interest, what is the Official Bray website ?
braywanderersfc.ie
Darragh Noone signed back http://braywanderersfc.ie/darragh-noone-signs-2017/
Strong in midfield in numbers but I'd like to see a decent striker added to that list. I'm sure there will be more added.Quote:

Longford Town have announced pre-season friendlies, the first of which sees Alan Mathews back at the Carlisle Grounds on January 17th. It's not that long away really... http://www.extratime.ie/articles/180...lling-stadium/
Bray Wanderers v Longford TownQuote:

I thought you made a mistake a friendly in January but there it was on Longford's web site on the 27th not the 17th but I still can't believe it, you would imagine they will be back training a couple of weeks before that makes for a long season and afaik unpaid until the actual season starts
I guess with the season starting a couple of weeks earlier, friendlies will be earlier as well?
It's only what - four weeks out from the start of the season? Seems reasonable for a first friendly.
Another midfielder announced - Keith Buckley from Bohs! Very strong in the middle! Another striker and some wide players and we could really push on this year!
2 more signings in midfield:
Gary McCabe - Shamrock Rovers
Aaron Green - Limerick
Derek Foran has re-signed after a spell in the USA. Plenty of defensive cover now.
Has Alan McNally re-signed?Quote:

Centre Back: Kenna and Clancy and Foran
Midfielders:

Not done yet. Another striker on the way!
