Well that's odd seen as he has a skin head

Only rumours doing the rounds up here are Gareth McGlynn has signed a pre-contract with Sligo, and Gary Twigg is signing for Derry City as his girl is living in Rathmullan and wants a move closer to the NW. All rumour though

I heard the one about Mcglynn signing for Sligo, Suspect the Twiglet rumour just wishfull thinking.

It probably is. I very much doubt it myself, Keny said this week he dosnt even know his budget for next year yet so I doubt any player has been approached

Harte plays centre-half for Reading, or at least he started there. Was also playing in the centre for Carlisle the season before.

Paul Byrne's left St. Pat's. Obviously been tapped up by Rovers, so impressed was Michael O'Neill by his skills on the treatment table.

Really can't see anything in Twigg to Derry. Even if he wanted to go, I don't see how Derry could afford to buy out his contract, unless he was planning to retire.

No THAT would be real Karma.

Ineffective, takes too many touches and doesnt get the ball into the mix often enough. A bit light weight. In his defence he wasnt playing every week so didnt have the consistency that comes with regular selection (although later in the season he got a good run). The side as a whole were very poor all season and lacking in confidence so its hard to judge him for the future. He has a good touch though and has ability. But on the whole a disappintment for Bohs and didnt influence games at all.

The Twigg rumours are coming from the player and not from the club.

**outspoken** · 02/11/2010, 4:37 PM

according to the pats forum Vinny Faherty and Gaz Coughlan are leaving , paul byrne is officially gone of course.

**outspoken** · 02/11/2010, 5:12 PM

Those departures are now official , Gaz announced it on his fb just like byrne , no word from faherty but its well known at this stage

In that case if he's happy to take a considerable pay cut, welcome aboard.

**Jicked** · 02/11/2010, 5:18 PM

Was Byrne just released due to injury problems? Weren't Pats fans impressed with him earlier in the season?

you lot hearing anything about the twigg rumour?

**Jicked** · 02/11/2010, 6:13 PM

No, because it's absolute rubbish, I'd be pretty confident in wagering.

He signed a new deal, talks all the time in the press about how he loves Rovers, is on bigger wages here than Derry could afford, has a great relationship with the manager/board and Derry couldn't afford the transfer fee for him which would surely command a record figure for a LoI club due to his importance to the team as well as the importance to the marketing side of things. I can't think of one single reason why it would be a possibility, can anyone else?

**SkStu** · 02/11/2010, 6:16 PM

nope.

**Jicked** · 02/11/2010, 6:21 PM

Yeah I can't think of any, if its on the basis of "his girl" living in Donegal, you'd think that being married since the summer they might just consider moving in together, and taking a big pay-cut and taking a backwards career move might be more unpopular with her indoors than living in Newry.
