They would be 2 unbelievable signings for Athlone, why on earth hasn't Cassidy picked up a club?

A few players to be signed also along with it, Russell just waiting for the go ahead.

Heard that Aaron Greene has trained with us but would have thought he would have played against Longford if that was true. Jason McGuinness and Keith Ward (trained and played friendly) also linked.

De Niese? Looked alright in the 10 minutes he had for us against UCD. Greene is still looking for a contract in the UK (claimed a while back he had contact from League One - he did in his hoop) so might be just training so he doesn't get injured.

I know coulter was meant to be poor last year but he was unreal for us in the premier. Made a quality double save tonight. Im praying we sign Cassidy. Would be a shock alright.
We played alright tonight against a full pats side. We didnt create too many chances but for our first game as a basically new team we done quite well.

Did Conor Barry get a run at all? Hopefully he gets a chance at Athlone.

It would be unbelievable if anyone signed Coulter alright.

He was sh1t with Sligo but unreal with Athlone when he signed half way through the season.

Of Course Alan Mathews had Dave Cassidy with him at Shels. Cant believe noone signed Cassidy! it would be a hell of a good signing for Athlone!

**ATFC-1887** · 06/02/2016, 7:46 PM

We have absolute no chance of challenging the promotion places, but im more confident of not finishing bottom now than i was a few days ago. Thats if the likes of Cassidy and Coulter sign

Daryl Carrigy is apparently signing for ye from our u19s. Local lad who came back from Derby a couple of years ago but hasn't really had a look in for our first team.

There was a Conor Boyle listed on the bench. But seeing as they had Emeka Onwubiko down as Ombuajar, Barry could easily have become Boyle!

Carrigy now saying on his twitter bio that he plays for us.

Harps supposed to have signed Michael Rafter.

I presume Harps latest signings will be announced tomorrow night in McGettigans.

Would be a good signing for harps if they can get him into any sort of shape at all.

He's been training right through preseason so I would assume he wouldn't be signed unless Ollie was sure he was fit and able.

Dick Brush, Ethan Boyle and Liam Flately rumoured to be signed too.

**joey B** · 09/02/2016, 9:36 PM

Rafter,Hanlon,Boyle,Brush,Flatley and Scully all confirmed by Harps tonight.

**De Town** · 11/02/2016, 7:11 PM

Are these lads Harps are signing moving up to Ballybofey, or in the general direction at least? I imagine the likes of Scully & Hanlon (and possibly one or two others they've signed) are Dublin based so it's a big commitment from them if they're upping sticks and moving north west for what I assume is fairly rubbish money.

Moving to Letterkenny I think.
What did you think would happen?
