    The Madness of King George seems more appropriate.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Let the fun and games begin as the Georgie show rolls into town again. He might just be the player we need in midfield to provide a bit of creativity although he didn't set the world on fire during his spell at Waterford. One thing is for sure, he will generate plenty debate amongst the City fans.

    Nothing to lose and everything to gain by signing him at this stage. We need to be fired up on and off the pitch and George might be just the man to do it. Interesting times ahead.

    Let's hope he makes a similar impact to his last debut at Gortakeegan with Waterford. Oh and the same result for us would be dandy.

    I think Georgies spark has long since gone out.
    He might add a few to the gate but that could well even itself out based on the irate texts i've received.

    I think this news has come too soon after Tommy 4-5-Dunnes contract extension
    It could push some fans over the edge.

    He struggled to make an impact down in Waterford but beggars can't be choosers and we need someone in the team who can offer something different especially in midfield. However, I think Georgie needs City more than City need him, his name is mud on both sides of the Irish Sea so it's City or bust for him now. It's a brave move by Dunne considering the natives are getting restless after recent defeats. I hope his gamble pays off.

    Gamble? Gamble? Did someone mention Joe Gamble? Now that would be a great signing
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Wishful thinking.

    Georgie, Shane Barrett, Woods, Hoggy & Co will have to do for now.

    Thats completely your call but as yiddo said above what have we got to lose?
    As many will know i'm far from a fan of O'Callaghan but we are resigned now to a mid table finish so why not try out different players/formations?
    Last night was our first win in the league since May 7th with Shane Barrett scoring as part of a 4-4-2.
    No justification in starting George on Friday in Monaghan, a place on the bench is the best he can hope for.

    I've always been a big fan of Georgoe as a player, but even I was surprised that anyone has signed him. His track record speaks for itself...quite literally and every manager he has ticked off can't be wrong. Pat Dolan seemed to be the only one he got on with. Good luck with it, but I'd give it a month.

    I'm pretty sure they had a bust-up too around the time he was dropped for a league game away to Bohs in 2004. Trying to refresh my memory about it lead to stumbling across this though, I only hope people are more patient these days with our Board of Management (who I think are doing a wonderful job by the way).
    A man can have no greater love than give 90 minutes for his friends.

    No decision for Tommy to make cos GOC is suspended for the Monaghan game. Will be available for selection for the Harps game on Friday week.

    He had a bust up with Dolan and was dropped to the bench for the next game but he came on after bout half an hour when Colin OBrien got injured.

    This in fairness.

    Limerick FC (That much maligned jokeshop 60 miles up the road) are currently taking the pick of the young talent in Cork while Cork City FORAS sign Horgan, Woods and O'Callaghan. Is it part of some masterplan culminating in the deadline day purchase of a time machine or what??
