Willie Tyrrell and David O'Neill are also new additions from Wayside Celtic but I'm not sure where they play. Any information folks?
Willie Tyrrell played for Kilkenny, Kildare and Bray apparently. A midfielder I think. Think O'Neill may be ex Bray too, judging from Google.

Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
Yep the 2 lads are ex-Bray players. Tyrrell was a defender when with us, don't think he really ever made the break through to our 1st team. O'Neill looked very decent when he was with us, we signed him from Arklow Town (i think) and he was playing in the 1st team and did well, got injured and never played for us again.Originally Posted by De Town
See you have signed Corrie Treacy too, he is from and still lives in Bray. Good defender, thought we might actually go in for him myself. Bit of a temper on him though and prone to making the odd very rash tackle.

It looks like Gary Cronin is no longer involved on the playin staff and Jamie Duffy must have departed..
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Shame about Cronin. From what I heard, he would have made a serious coach. No loss on Duffy.
Sporting F*ck All!

Since Farragher/Coombes/Collins are on loan then are Jonathan Kielty/Lee Dixon on loan from Bray as well?
As far as I'm aware Dixon has left Bray, Kielty definitely has
I'd love to invent a time machine then go back in time and win the lottery, buy new players and a stadium. Time machines are brilliant aren't they- Ian Holloway
Oh and to complete the circle. Hyland has left Pats for Bray (i.e. its not a loan)
