Waterford utd have terminated Robert Brosnans contract. He supposidly played in a high profile quarter final of the Cork Senior Football Championship this weekend,2 days before our season make-or-break game in Longford.
officail site doesnt much though:

Mabey hell be back 2 us. He was great. Cant blame him bcus that must have been a big game for him . he took a risk and paid for it
brossie was agood player, but when he demanded to play and undermined the manager when he was with us he dug his own grave, he was THE RAMBLERS OF OLD, the young hungry players we have now are the future,
lets look forward not back
he was wrong to go against the people who pay his wages, wufc are in a difficult position in the league and if a player lacks the determination and focus to help his team get out of that situation then what good is he to a team;)

Now he's been sacked by Waterford, and his GAA side were beaten by Nemo this weekend, what money on him being on the bench for us on Saturday? :eek:
not a hope, he and his follow waterford ramblers buddies are no longer welcome here, they were the deadwood holding us back, look at the players that had a chance to emerge this season due to them leaving, good ridance to them,
ya he was a good player but as was said by ramsfan, waterford pay his wages and they shouldnt have to suffer for injuries picked up while playing other sports.
Personally id take warrewn back with open arms, class act who always gave his all for Rams. Never caused trouble once. And hendo said it at AGM warren was offered less money every year he stayed, thats not right either.Quote:

to be honest, i think our team are only going to get better as they get older, the average age of this team is very low. the biggest threat to our team is the likes of (buy & sell) city coming down for our players. maybe this is a topic for another thread, i might sstart one in a min.
I agree with you there depor especially with the fact we need a goalscorer, are there many out there though.
i dont know, quality goals scorers are very hard to come by and hence very pricey. its hard to tell who he'll get. not counting oreilly or cummins out as they are flying, but we will need more personnel for that area. hendo might have something up his sleeve, i ssuppose he's concentrating on the next game 1st. do u have anyone in mind??
dave warren was agood player but he left of his own free will, we ended up last year with players who cost a fortune but were not much more than average, ie dave breen he was agood player cost a fortune and wasnt really a team player
hate to use this phrase but alot of the players we had who went to wufc were mercenaries ie bruton no interest in trying always called by the money, bruton was agood player if he stayed trained and fought but he was always more interested in cash
we have numerous players like that throughout the years, we need to avoid if we do get up the old days of bringing in dub players who didnt train with the team turned up for matches did the minimium and f##cked off with nthere wages in their pockets
the only waythis club will progress is to bring in young hungry players who will try and fight for 90 mins not for money but because they want to prove themselves;)
if we get up i think rams should be giving roy a call , he would prob loan us players and paythe wages , it would porobably give him a chance to look at some players and give others game time
i nwould take dave connolly and anthony stokes on loan and maybe graham
kavanagh ha ha :D
Bros would be handy if we were hanging on in a game by the skin of our teeth but again i agree with ramsfan but he was my idol in football + darren murphy so id always welcome him back
No not one person, if we get promoted we could always try a team that gets relegated, but no as i said earlier it will be very hard to get a proven goalscorer, look at bruton when he signed i said guaranteed 15 goals for us, what a ******* he proved top be. Cummins isnt going to get us 10-20 goals, but you couldnt rule reilly out he'd really want to put in a very good pre-season and hopefully come back mentally stronger, and try to forget about the hipQuote:

deadright marco, we have a bunch of players who are hungry to prove themselves they are skilful, but with this team skill is about 5% of the mix the main ingrtedient is 95% hunger and determination
but we if we get promoted the point i was making was if we add to the squad we continue to bring in these sorts of players, rams have a history of getting promoted or going well and rather than try to build what they have started they panic buy and bring in players from dub or england
a couple of years ago we brought in players from england derby and forest, jesus they were sh*te but because they had english teams on there cv they jumped ahead of the players who fought for the team to get where they were
we need to be patient and continue to build and look at long term success rather than short term false success
;)
That's ridiculous, and an appalling thing for someone in your position to say.Quote:

go back to your own forum, everyone knows the story with wufc spend a fortune one year broke the next, except this year spending a fortune didnt work
i would fancy either us dundalk or finnharps to turn ye over
so i would be more worried about getting your own house in order:D
Hows the the board getting on? Come back yet did they, people in glass houses, No financial trouble up this way, only trouble is players breaching there contract
our (board) committee is ok, old news. people resign from companies and clubs all the time, fact of life. its not a bad reflection on the club, they are individuals who make their own decision and the club will carry on regardless, like we are doing.Quote:

look anyone reading this can see that your just gunning for a reaction or an argument, the fact is that you resort to vent your disappointmant onto us by putting down our club, its not going to do anyone any good. its just a stupiud comment, yer welcomee to breen we have a better defence since hes gone for a fraction of the price.Quote:

We had a far better record last year when brossie played then when he didnt.
Pure rubbish and well you know it. I wish we did have a fortune to spend, chance would be a fine thing. Fact is we have one of the smallest squads, and one of the smallest wage budgets (if not the smallest) in the Premier, and smaller than some Div 1 clubs. We haven't spent a fortune in many years.Quote:

I was reading a thread, on an open forum, about one of our players who was released and saw a false comment that a club official shouldn't be making, whatever about an ill-informed ordinary fan.
As regards yourselves, Harps or Dundalk, I'd also not fancy our chances against any of ye, but what's that got to do with anything?
But its true. so hows it bad if its true?
You are talking rubbish, young man, you obviously haven't a clue what you are on about. We are more financially secure than we have been for years, we have NEVER "spent a fortune" on anything, as one of the lads said, chance would be a fine thing.Quote:

So there you have it!
We had major financial problems about 2 years ago and our Management Committee have done sterling work in turning that around, so either you have just been mis-informed or you are just a liar!
I no i'm messing i no it didnt dound it but i was
