Transfer Rumours

**Frank76** · 10/02/2009, 8:07 PM

Daithi Garry, Jason Oladele, Robert Douglas and John McGuinness on trial with us at the minute.

Also expect to see Shane Barrett re-signing for Drogheda and also Forsyth to follow. Reliable source up in Drogheda told me that both players weren't actually signed on paper and Mathews snuck in to prize them away. Will be unveiled by the weekend according to my mate.

Had a weird feeling that was what happened.

Yeah looks that way when there was no specific reason given as to why they weren't signing. Wouldn't surprise me to see one or two other players supposedly gone elsewhere rock up at United Park either. Most lads would take Premier Division football over First Division and I'd say the money wouldn't be much different to what Shels are offering, if not better. Plus Mathews actually personally knows a huge amount of players in the greater Dublin area through one thing and another.

Suspected as much but surprised Mathews would do the dirt, as it were, on his good pal Keely.

Well it happened in reverse when James Chambers had agreed to come to LTFC and shaken hands on a deal after doing pre-season with us in 2007 and Keely called out to his parents' house the next day and signed him up on a contract for Shels. Didn't affect their relationship then, all's fair when you're scrambling for players, they've both been around a long time!.

Barrett got a huge job with 3g which was announced in the business section of a weekend paper so I would assume this may have somthin to do with it

**Longfordian** · 11/02/2009, 5:35 PM

Jamie Duffy, Ian Ryan, Robbie Martin, John Paul Kelly, Gavin Whelan and Conor Kenna apparently heading for Drogs shortly.

Was carrying an injury into that game if memory serves me. Only started as
we were very short staffed that week, but only lasted about 20 minutes
before limping off.

I reckon he'll get a frosty reception when ye visit Lissywollen ...
