Bohs, Dundalk, Sligo and Fingal the only full time teams this year then and all bar Fingal with reduced budgets. Maybe, just maybe, despite all the negativity of clubs struggling and going to the wall we might be edging towards a sustainable league.

Something I was wondering about - how many players have Dundalk signed at the moment? They seemed to release most of last year's squad and then just sign four or five players.Originally Posted by shep
(Let's leave aside that "signed" doesn't necessarily mean "signed" in this league)
We are full time and have been since 1992, bar 4 or 5 seasons under O'Riordan and Cassidy.
More often than not we've had a certain amount of full time foreigners on our books going back as far the 50's/60's, to supplement the team, this would mainly be because our geographical location.
We just signed our eleventh player, Stephen Maher, yesterday (http://dundalkfc.com/news/100210_Maher.asp).
is that only this season?
Thanks. Good to know.

Kom Igen, FCK...
No, we've been full time since 2007 I think ,but i'm open to correction.
Question for Rovers supporters: Is Conor O' Grady still a part time player ? I remember him returning to us in 2007 on a part time contract when we had just gone full time.
Coleman for Ireland
Here's the other side -

#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
"Galway United are expected to reveal new signing Wes Charles tomorrow provided terms are finalised with the FAI.
Charles, a native of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines will rejoin the Tribesmen following a short stint in Canada with the Vancouver Whitecaps."

Wesley Charles is back? Really? I just like this tough defender, tbh!
Don't know how true the Wes stuff is. The source is Wikipedia. Local paper says that Stephen o'Donnell has signed for Galway and Bobby Ryan will be training with us for the next 2 weeks. Thomas Heary is expected to sign over the weekend. The thought of Wes and Heary at the back is a bit scary.
It was on Wesleys wiki page and some lad posted it on our own forum. Stepen O'Donnell is a great signing we are well covered in midfield now but we need 2 good forwards to and a couple of defenders to sort out the squad.If Seamus Conneely and Paul Sinnott resign we might need one more centre half.
We are the Galway Boys Stand up and make some noise"
Letterkenny Rovers 1 - 1 Finn Harps
Oisin McMenimen with the goal.
We play The Irish Army side on Wednesday night and Sligo at home on Thursday followed by Cockhill Celtic on Saturday.
What time is kick-off Thursday?
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Not 100% sure as of yet, will post here as soon as I get word. 7.30pm would be the guess.
Yes, 7.30pm kick-off.
Up the Harps!!
Don't know if any of you have heard it, but Pat Fenlon is going to move upstairs at Bohs to make way for a world class manager and long time fan
More...
That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!
