    Sure is, its his ambition to manage every team in the league. He's 40% of the way there already

    I didn't like the way he left us, but I have to admit that he's far from the worse manager in the League. This is his biggest challenge yet, given Galway's very tight budget.

    He has so many big name friends in football like Mick McCarthy and Steve Bruce that I am sure he will do fine.

    I think yere safe enough, Turner definitely would not get anything near what ye might offer him down here. Our budget will be around E150 per player, maybe E200 for some but that would be pushing it

    Sean Connor spoke about the clause in Chrissy Turners contract at the Galway press conference this afternoon. Connor said the clause did exist and that he saw Turner as the best midfielder in the League and he's love to have him at Galway but that remains to be seen.

    It was the funniest press conference I've ever attended... mothers and kids sitting around eating chicken wings and chips with Connor, Leason and Michéal D. in the middle of them. Only in the League of Ireland would a press conference be held in a chipper.

    I prey Connor signs Foyzer ... now that's a press conference I want to be at!

    He did stress the squad would be predominantly made up of local players and it was unlikely any of the usual Connor recruits would not be following him to Galway.

    This was clearly a concerted effort to entice Foyzer to Galway.

    I know a lot of people don't like Connors but I have to say I think he is a gentleman, when I had my hip done a couple of years ago Seanie called in to me whenever he was meeting the big shots in the Belfry, he'd call in with the match programme and a packet of wine gums and update me with all the goings on, I texted him good luck last night and cannot wait to see him back in the Showgrounds.
