    Vinny Faherty back at Galway. Happy with that. Fits in with what the club is trying to do.

    We tried that twice before. If we wanted a striker who's an expert in missing open goals, we'd have kept Shaw.

    Actually, you're right, that's the sort of thing Rovers would do.

    If Rovers had signed him it would be seen as a panic signing probably lol and that there are few options out there. With decent wing play and centre midfield that can put the ball on a plate he would score. But he is a 10 or 12 goal a season striker really unless he hits a seriously hot veing of form. Any word at all on a possible striker? Dundalk would likely be considering the need for a 3rd front man among a couple of other positions that need another option. Sam Byrne to Boh's has been alluded to on OW.

    Just out of general interest what players would have had multiple spells at Rovers and other clubs (more than 2) in general. Faherty on his 4th at Galways has to be some sort of record!?

There must be other irons in the fire at Tallaght. Kilduff, with that Shels squad would be a reasonable bet for Div 1 top scorer. Not just Rovers, h'ed be a stronger option than Cummins and had a decent loan spell in Cork before?
    Kilduff isn't even close to an upgrade on Cummins. Cummins gets huge stick because he's a fairly one dimensional player and he can be frustrating to watch. But his numbers are decent. He scored more goals last season than Kilduff would be likely to. He would have been 2nd top scorer bar Sadlier penalties. If he had been on penalties, he'd very lilely have broken 20 goals.

    Kilduff may have a bit more of an all round game, but Cummins will get more goals.

    Was speaking to a mate of Kulduff's before Xmas, he told me Kilduff is back working in Ireland the last while so I assume the reason he has signed for Shels is PT football will suit him down to the ground. Shels should be walking the league this year

    Shels back in the premier by the look of it alright.
    With Pats back full time and Sligo bound to come on under bucko the league is set to get pretty competitive I've the next few seasons.

    Alan Murphy's playing stint with us last season was his 5th spell with us.

    1. 1998 - 2004 then he joined Derry
    2. 2006 - 2007 joined Shamrock Rovers
    3. 2008 - 2011 joined Mervue
    4. 2014 (although I don't think he played a game during this season due to injury, played junior soccer in Galway after that)

    Great talent but looked in awful shape during his time at Dundalk. Spell up the north was a disaster too

    I know with us Mark Devlin had 7 different spells with us. 83-84 to 84/85, 86-87,88-89,91-92,93-94,95-96 and finally 98-99.
    Leo had two less spell than Mark with us. 86-87 -88/89, 89-90 to 90/91, 92-93,94-95-95/96 and also 98-99.

    Must have being in their blood!

    thought i read in a Galway Utd programme from 2014 season that Alan Murphy played but maybe I could be wrong?

    Spoke to a good source today, said this isn't uncommon with Hendo and that man-management is his weak point.
