Gamble would be a fantastic signing for us but Cork is the most likely place he'll end up.

On Sullivan, he is a good player and did a good job for us last season. Worked very hard for us once he settled in.

Along with John O'Flynn, George O'Callaghan, Liam Kearney, Dan Murray, Phil Harrington and Pat Morley.

Nah whatever about Behan who I reckon will hum and haw and hum and haw and wind up in Cork, Gamble would be extracting the urine.

I don't see either tbh.

must be some money stirring Shannonside

Millions.

Tommy Dunne quoted on extratime as saying that Behan is signing for Limerick for wages as he ,more or less says, "that the likes of Shamrock Rovers would struggle to compete with..you talk about 65%...blah blah..don't know where they're getting the money..."

Pat Scully on the sidelines tonight...

If their owner is putting up the cash then they won't have any problems with the 65% rule. I've no idea if he is willing to spend or not, but he may see it as an investment to secure premier football for when they move into their new stadium.

Whether Behan is worth it or not is a debate that could go on for days but he should score a few in this division anyway. I'm not sure if I want him or not for us. While we need another striker I don't know if he's the right guy to complement Cummins.

No animosity at all - everyone would just love if he could score goals as his effort is second to none. Last season he won MOM in LC Final and FAI semi but this season he has been having mares and I'd say Rovers would be happy to have him off the payroll in July.

And there I was thinking the stories started because the club were actually f***ed!!

If money is being put up for players I have no problem with that once it doesn't come back to bite us and the players that the money is being used on are worth it.

After 17 years in the first division and with us on a good run you can see why Pat is really pushing to improve our squad. Throw into that the long list of injuries we have also.

While our crowds are not in the thousands we are getting more than 300 in the gate most weeks. Better signings might also bring in better crowds.

As avvenalaf said, there is no animosity towards Blinkhorn, none at all. Why would there be? A fantastic centre forward. His all round play is top class and there are goals in him, he just doesnt fit into our 451 with the way we play. Probably just needs a fresh challange to kick start his career again

Hmm, this sounds strangely familiar. Where have I heard this before?

This is a huge chance for Limerick to go up. Top 4 beginning to split away and with 2 sure to go up and 1 having the pleasure of playing Galway by the looks of things I think they're right to speculate at this time by bringing in new players. Surely their wages for the next 4 months can't break the club.

Once O'Sullivan sticks around with his chequebook they'll be fine. I think they're wasting their money on Behan though, looked an average player with Cork and has done nothing with Hartlepool. Limerick are going to need at least 3 quality additions if they're to overtake Shels and Cork by my reckoning.

Perhaps he should be playing in goal then?

Stephen O Flynn didn't do much in the Premier either and got about 20 mins in 4 months at Northampton and he scores for fun in the 1st division .

Even if Behan doesn't score loads he will help our younger inexperienced strikers through games must not be too bad if mangers kept picking him for almost 200 games for Cork.
