Lancashire telegraph reports that Gavin Gunning is set to move to Stockport on loan, would be great move if true.

Could be a good move for him as I don't think Allardyce would have given him many opportunites this season.

RTE always a step behind!

**cheifo** · 28/07/2009, 2:52 PM

Ipswich sign 19 year old Irish player Shane O Conner.
O Conner who plays in defence or midfield was previosly on Liverpools books.

**Manc Irish Wolf** · 29/07/2009, 9:52 PM

Looks like Wolves have took a young lad called Jimmy Keohane on trial from Wexford Youths - Anyone know anything about him? 18 Years old who can play in midfield, or upfront. Was named as a sub in a development team friendly against Crewe - not sure if he came on or not though.

**passinginterest** · 29/07/2009, 10:34 PM

Scored for the Youths last week, Mick Wallace has been raving about him, seems to be a winger or striker, I haven't seen him yet myself but very quick and skillful from what I've heard.

Here's an extract from the match report by Brian de Salvo on that game against Finn Harps:

Youths appeared to be playing 4-3-3 but Jimmy Keohane was so mobile on the left if was hard to tell exactly what his role was. This is a player of immense potential, not least in his maturity for one so young. He missed a sitter in the opening minutes, heading wide from the edge of the six yard box when completely unmarked, and another twenty minutes later when Gary Sheahan’s pace on the right provided an unexpected opportunity only for young Keohane to miskick in front of goal. Such howlers might well have decimated the confidence of any inexperienced player but they took not a feather out of Keohane whose non stop contribution continued to catch the eye and was ultimately rewarded with a goal.
