    Ruaidhiri Higgins and Mark Farren were there. Not sure who else, if any.

    Heard the news about McNamee from someone in America over the weekend. I was impressed with him in the cup final and hope it goes well for him.

    whats Ciaran Nangle like, UCD fans? Has signed for Bohs...
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    And James McClean of Premier League outfit Sunderland is backing his former Derry City team-mate Rory Kelly to go far in the competition.
    Any derry fans know anything about this player? Has he played in the league of ireland? Read that he has made the last 11 of this contract competition

    In the absence of any UCD fans.... I can say that anytime I saw him I reckoned he was a decent left back. Played under age with Bohs , so he`s coming home!

    Oh yeah. He's ok. Solid if not spectacular. Not the worst left-back I've ever seen for us. (That'd be Enda Stevens, bizarrely...!)

    Until he went off McNamee was the MOTM in the cup final was very very impressed with him no wonder he got himself a trial best of luck to him.

    He's a goalkeeper from Donegal. Played for us this season before he went back over to college in Liverpool. Nothing special tbh. He does some articles for extratime.ie as well.

    Fine by me!

    Actually, its quite refreshing to be signing average players and not relying on finishing first to lose millions - instead we're relying on finishing mid-table to break even! Pretty good stuff.

    We sold Touchy Feely to Charlton and are getting apparently 50k plus add ons for him which is a good bit of business for us. Not a bad business model in fact. UCD had the right approach all this time.

    I was away most of this season, so don't really know much about Lyons. Did well on his debut up in Derry last season - should have scored very soon after he came on - and did score on his home debut I think. Since then, not a huge amount afaik.

    Slightly concerned we're losing players to the likes of Bohs - granted, Aaron and Terry there helps lures players, I'm sure - but there's presumably always another batch of new players that other clubs are ignoring.

    I wouldn`t be too perturbed id I was a UCD fan, some really good young players just waiting for their chance, I am told.
    Surprised that no move made for Mc Millan, looks like a natural goalscorer.

    He's not really. He's strong and works hard but everything has to be to his feet. most teams in this league play the ball ahead of strikers and he appears unwilling/unable to do this. Slows everything down when it comes to him. Has a terrific shot though
