Has to have been a year we were in different divisions, which'd make it either 04 or 08. I think we played ye in Longford in 08, so that'd make it 04.
Just to clarify, I'm not entirely sure on the time, the phone line was crap.
Sporting F*ck All!

If god wanted us to play football in the clouds he would have put grass up there!
It was 04 alright,Barry Ferguson scored a peno.

I knew about this but choose to keep quiet on this until this got in the public domain.. I saw in the daily mail today that Mick Lee has being asked to go back on a second trial with carlisle utd. I heard this last week in town. I am very surprised that he has gone on trial considering he has signed a new contract. I assume if he goes we will get money for him. Is that correct?

If he's under contract I'd assume we would. He may have just agreed to stay on and not actually signed yet. Hopefully the club ensured he did sign it if Carlisle are interested. We should get some compensation for him either way given his age but we'd get more if he's signed a contract.
He has a contract til October so I'm assuming we'll get some sort of compo. Fair play to him though if Carlisle sign him....their manager was well impressed with him on his first week trial.

I'm Delighted for Michael , I know its not a done deal yet but as Town Legend said above Carlise manager Paul Abbott was very impressed with him and wants him back on a second trial , i cant imagine the deal wont happen now if he puts in a simlar performance second time round.
Of course I'm disappointed we are losing such a great player but who are we to stop him from bettering his career across water , fair play to ya Michael and best of luck.

Just saw this on their site, sounds like he did well over there alright. Hopefully it can work out for everyone.

Maybe a mod could move these last few posts to the ins and outs thread btw, kind of going off topic.
apologises longfordian for posting on this thread just thought it would save space for further threads.. good piece on him in todays longford leader. I didnt realise Mick was born in Dublin when did he move to Longford to live??

fair fecks!
Oh no problem Marty it's just to keep the Internet spinning on its correct axis! No trace of a Dub accent on young Lee so I'm guessing he didn't spend long there?

A very strong preseason line up, will be great prep for the new season

dont know for sure, but might be to do with the lack of maternity hospitals in Longford?!
