I really can't believe we would sign a player with a stipulation like that. It smells of BS, to be honest.

A first class appointment by Galway. Dundalk and Galway exchanged managers and I think the westerners have come out better. SC will keep them in the Premier.

Might be best to ask somebody at the club incase the whole thing goes tits up and Turner heads of to be with Seanie again in Galway. Players can't be registered until after the 15th of January I believe so Turner still has time to bail out on Sligo which would be a disgrace if he did.

Not a bad appointment, better than that Cowboy Kenny at Derry or Collins at Cork.

I think you're being a little harsh on Kenny and not harsh enough on Collins.

Yeah? You'd have a different opinion if he ever managed Pats.

one thing is for sure,Galway are now gonna sign a lot of half decent players,attitude and wages wise a disaster...but expect an exciting year.A good short term appointment IMO

I wonder will Dave Rogers still be on our radar?

**dublinred** · 10/01/2010, 9:02 PM

Good appointment by Galway , will never win the league but can't ever see any of his teams getting relegated either , 4th with us , 3rd with Bohs who were in the doldroms the season before and 5th with a new team and a bunch of loopers at Dundalk isn't a bad record ,does talk a lot of ****e though.

**Hairy Bowsie** · 10/01/2010, 9:06 PM

How long before he has the Galway public believing the rest of the country, LOI and FAI are out to get them?

I really can't believe there are people still ridiculously stupid enough to hire people like Connor and Shoddy over and over again. Galway fans should be calling on whoever appointed him to resign immediately.

Galway United fans should applaud whoever hired Connor and be grateful it wasn't Roddy Collins, Paul McGee or Pat Dolan.

Havnt you heard...Pat Dolan is too big of a TV star for the LOI scene now-a-days!

Thats alright then! Yeah there where a few "head the balls" alright but I must say, there was a group of lads there that really knew how to play football and Im glad I can say I got to see some of them play weeek in week out for a season. Lads like Shaun kelly, Mickey McGowan, Mchael Daly, Chris Turner and Liam Burns.

Getting a bit sick of this praise for getting Dundalk to 5th place last season......its a 10 team league for staters...Spoofer and Dundalk spent money and brought a lot of decent players in..from the start of the season Bray and Drogs(with the greatest of respect lads before ye go mad!!..were more or less going to be the bottom 2...we had a really bad first half to the season and therefore were down there...Pats were awful often and Galway finished where many predicted they would so it wasnt really that much of an achievement really....granted at the start of the season i would have predicted Us and Pats to finish higher than Dundalk but the reason we didnt was down to Rovers and Pats and not any brilliance by Connor.
