Yeah after reading that this morning im getting very sceptical now...best wage package and the fact that thats now two players who played at Oriel last season(Rogers and Cawley) who made very harsh gestures to the home support..Cawley is a scumbag!Originally Posted by Nah Nah Nah Nah
Yeh agree about Cawley been a scumbag. He was with us for a while big things expected of him and did nothing. Spent more time on the bench cos he was crap, sulked and was sent back to Shels. And then when he was back playing against us with Bray he lashed out at one of his former 'team mates' who was lying on the ground. Waste of money in my opinion.
We have been linked with former Sligo player, Carlos Alvarez, and
(possibly former) U.C.D. player Timmy Purcell.
Seems we'l be getting rid of newly signed Davin O Neill, its a part time contract and his job means he cant train by day which Doolin isnt happy with and told him he wont play much.
Leaving by mutual consent and most likely heading to Cobh..
Or to us.
i heard last night that Emeka Onwubiko ( ex bray and current under 17 international) is training with us. We also have got in a lad from plymouth ( have completely forgotten his name )and brian mccarthy and ray kenny are joining us. saw the two above lads training today..
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
centre-back, tall, young, ex-Athlone?
Yes.
His father Tim does golf and basketball commentary for RTE.
Celebrating 130 Years of Athlone Town Football Club - Pride of the Midlands Since 1887
He's my hero. What a commentator.
is he the guy with the weird Cork/Yankee accent??
Is it not Limerick/Yankee?
Don't think he's a current international with them Marty, he's about 19/20 now I think.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Having played under him before I pretty much can,yeah he did well for us and I bet he regrets leaving rovers big time, he had a fantastic squad and a decent budget,anyone could have got us out of the first division that year.He messed up the youth system of the club to further his own ambitions with the senior team,he then fcuked off.All this talk of links with birmingham city,steve bruce...******,he never shut up about it yet nothing ever materialised from it.And I don't for one second believe these players are running for dundalk because he is the manager,I know for a fact many of the players at rovers had issues with him,i cant speak for bohs but it seems our fans tend to agree about him.Im quite surprised dundalk took him on.
But I would like to echo other posters welcoming dundalk back to the premier,good to see them back and looks like the squad being built is a very good one indeed.If ye sign turner and get him fit he is one if not the best central midfielders in the league imo,was brilliant with us but his fitness was terrible at bohs.Burns again was great for us,very popular with the support and great talker/organiser of the back four.One thing is certain,with a squad like that ye shouldn't be worrying about relegation,if things go yer way ye have the squad for a top four place
He was in a few U19 squads.
macarty would be good.no need for oniboiwiko because we have too class strikers
St.Pats are the LOI team with the big Birmingham connections through their assistant manager.
yeah but Sean Connor used to be the bigshot there.
Well that's what he told me.
What more motivation could one need than a good luck card from Steve Bruce?
To be honest, i dont think our budget was ever officially released, 12k was floate dabout but i dont think the club released it!
Més Que Un Club - More than a Club
That 12k a week is being stretched at the moment.
