Can i just try and answer some of these points
1. Keegan is going to be doing some coaching and he took a considerable drop to come to Longofrd, he's not 52 weeks either
2 Dessie Baker is a man with something to prove. He's on average enough money even by our standards, not 52 weeks of the year. Alan knows him better than anyone else so i think we should give him the benefit of the doubt
3 Alan is actively looking for a suitable replacement for Digger. He tried to sign Bennion from Shels but he went to Dundalk for more money. Cassin is out of contract and will be offered a junior contract at best. Dempsey had another year left so we couldn't let him go..
4 Agreed we need another midfielder but i've said before that its hard to find someone good enough who'll come for what we can afford
5 We weren't ready for the license but then neither was anyone else. We should be ready by the end of the season if the money is in place for the ground. Off the field theres been seven years of absolute crap to sort out and the club has made alot of progress in that regard, but there is still work to be done. We'll have another year to do it anyway i'd say
6 The licence for the bar can be got at pretty quickly, the guards have said this already. It's not a big deal. The Supporters Club have taken responsibility for the bar being finished and theyre hoping to have it done by the end of March. Dont know if thats feasible but thats what theyre aiming for.
7 The club could be more informative alright but at the end of the day if you want to know something just ask some of the committee and they'll tell you, although some of them couldnt be bothered finding out. The structures are being looked at and could do with a revamp. There are people on the Committee working hard to secure sponsorship and fund raising for Longford Town, but it should be more of them. There are a few things in the pipeline which if they come off will be of great benefit to the club. Im quite optimistic that our future is bright...Just trying to be of some help to ya..
