From what i know, the budget was increased towards the end of the season to bring in ex-Monaghan players. The plan will be to start next season at the same figure they started last season.Originally Posted by Longfordian

Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Sounds about right. I did hear that TC had asked for a bit extra to sign those lads. The club usually try and give the manager a little extra in July if things are going ok and he wants to sign a couple of players.

Very disappointing news re hylo. Yes he made some stupid mistakes this season but some of his saves were out of this world and his performance in the defeat of Limerick in jackman was the best I ever seen from a town keeper.
As I said he made some mistakes but he was young there was so much more potential in him. Big blow.
Ah Jesus... it would have been a real bonus to keep him! Delighted to hear about Shaw though.

Shaw hasn't signed yet so don't be jizzing yerselves lads. He has agreed a deal but that doesn't mean a whole lot these days...I'd be fairly hopeful of him being with us though next season.
Hyland not coming back is true though. Hasn't got any offers on the table from anywhere else at the moment either...
He isn't coming back, but has no offers?
Sporting F*ck All!
Correct. No offers yet. Would expect him to pick up a club by March though.
Chris Bennion has signed according to the PFAI. Meh. We needed a keeper, he's pretty mediocre though.

Plenty of Premier League experience though. Very good signing for ye if you ask me. Most First Division clubs would lick a dogs arse to get a keeper with plenty Premier experience.

I think it's a great signing he's been at some good clubs we need all the experience we can get especially in such an important position. Hopefully Tony builds from the back.
Dont forget with Bennion that he has being in the league of ireland a long time over ten years and he has a lot of experience from the various clubs he has played for ie Dundalk,Shels,Monaghan.. I would give him a go.. What would other loi fans think of him?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
To be honest I think he's a good capture, good keeper with plenty of experience which is what we need. Time will tell how right or wrong I am!!
I was never hugely impressed with him any time I saw him in the last couple of years but we'll give him a chance I suppose. Daniel Purdy has apparently signed back for next season too.

He moved there from Athlone so what was that 3 years ago?

Encouraging talk at the dinner tonight. TC reckons he has everyone kept that he needed to keep. Willo McDonagh has signed back which is great, Roddy was on to him two days after he'd signed back with us apparently.
