Anybody hear anything on Mick Leahy? Has he been training with us at all?
Anybody hear anything on Mick Leahy? Has he been training with us at all?
With just six weeks to the start of the season and the squad looking so threadbare could anyone tell me anything about the current playing circumstances of the following;
Samuel Oji
Patrick Nzuzi
Jason Hughes
Shane Tracey
Mick Leahy
Prince
Have the club made any contact with any of the aforementioned? Did they fail to agree terms with any of them? Have any found new clubs? Have any of them disappeared of the face of the planet? Are any of them training with Pikes B team or plying their trade in the desmond league!!
We could do with all six of them but failing that surely the two local boys can be secured?
Mick leahy was speaking to drogheda.jason hughes up to recently hadnt been contacted.shane tracey has had a falling out from what i heard.dont know about oji/nzuzi.prince was supposed to have signed?along with ali abbass.nobody seems to know whats going on.the team isnt good enough at the minute for junior soccer.
Oji: Training with Cheltenham has offer in America had been told he had signed with us but no sign of him.
Nzuzi: Made an offer early in off season turned it down nothing since.
Hughes: Made an offer that was turned down was still talking to the club up to a few weeks ago all gone quiet now.
Tracy: Hasn't heard anything from the club as far as I know.
Leahy: Talking to Drogs apparently told he wasn't needed at Limerick.
Prince; Supposedly signed but wont have work permit til season starts like last season.
Cheers lads. Not too much hope for most of them boys so.
Surprised with the Leahy one when you consider he was Russells captain at UCD as far as I know.
Very tempting offer for Oji, Limerick or America. I'm sure most would jump at the chance to go to the states. Maybe it doesn't suit him personally though.
I'd imagine the problem with Tracey is probably due to the fact he is so injury prone.
Hopefully Hughes gets sorted. Local lad, great attitude and work ethic. Need some more like him.
We can add Jack Doherty to the list of outs.

Kieran Hanlon signed today.
Barry Sheedy next i believe.Relegation fodder no doubt.
Two lads that were only released a few months ago.
No offence to either of them but if they weren't good enough six months ago how can the club justify that they are now?
On a side note are there any other regular season ticket holders here and have you bothered renewing yet? I know quiet a few that haven't renewed yet and usually do before Christmas.
Played a friendly against Limerick FAS today won 3-0 Dean Clarke scored 2 Red scored the other. Red, Adrian Power of Moyross, Sean Brosnan and another lad that I have no name for played.
God help us for the new season if thats all the club are looking at to sign.backwards the club seems to be going.
Admittedly against sub standard opposition but dean clarke seems to have an eye for goal. I wonder how Martin Russell really feels about how his squad is shaping up. Maybe he wants to change the dynamic of the team entirely from last season and isn't pushed about resigning some of last years lads....in Russell we trust!
No offence to the lad but that signing to me just strengthens my feelings that we are going down.
I renewed before Christmas Jofspring, not much of an indicator though as i would have regardless. My ticket number was higher than in previous years, hopefully that means they are selling a few.
Have heard good things about John Connery. Shane Clarke and Shane Walters would both be decent signings. We would still need some more LOI experience though.
