    As for Anthony Keenan, a fiver from every ticket sold in the upcoming Athlone Town Legends game is being donated to his fund as well. Ash or someone will confirm this, story has disappeared off the iStat website.
    Change of plan on that one, after speaking to the Jelly Keenan Trust we have decided to keep both fundraisers seperate, however we will be supporting the table quiz.

    Should have ticket details for the Legends game available soon.

    Those two lads are well capable of playing First Division football if they're interested enough. Wouldn't read too much into a first training game against the Under 20s though, be it positive or negative.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    So is there anymore rumoured transfers or any other faces we'd recognise that was on trial at the weekend? I'm out of the country for the year so I'm relying on this for my info on them!!! And a reliable source like yourself Martinho will come in handy for me!!!

    And talking about former players I came across Fergal Coleman on the net who's playing or played for some Australian team in the Victorian League. And Evan Creedon is involved with some team out in Vancouver!

    You should bring out a book!

    A History of Longford Town. That would be interesting.

    If you sell it in individual chapters I reckon the relegation year will sell out in Athlone book shops!

    Anyway, back to transfers ... whats the story with the core of your team
    being the players who finished below ye last year!!!

    Wonder will there be any players left by the time we get our ship steady

    Right sided midfield player. Aged about 26. From Kenagh, Co. Longford. Was with us as a fringe player for most of the Mathews era. Took some time out in '06 and then returned for last season. Started season well but hasn't scored since April
