    Would be a great signing for them if he did go there.

    Tommy Dunne said his job is very physically demanding which causes him to pick up more injuries than normal with not much recovery time, that and he can't really commit training wise.

    Cobh would be a decent move for him if they are in the first division, back to his old club also.

    So who's decision was it, his or the club's? Even on one leg he was still banging in plenty of goals so presumably his.

    I'd say his too or at least mutual.

    Think he is linked to Waterford United also.

    I'd say it was Tommy mostly, though I don't know how upset he would be about it.

    From what I've been hearing it sounds like Cobh will be back and hed be a very good player for them to have.

    If Cobh are back, it means an 8 Div 1 again this year. Anyone know the story with the two Galway clubs from last season ? Will Salthill still play in Terryland under the strange name and in Galway maroon colours and have they and Mervue started pre-season yet ?

    Oh right, i thought it was something the PFAI were running to promote LOI players. So it was probably an invite, it actually makes sense though, the other leagues are a good match for ours so its a good exercise imo.
    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.

    Far as I know, Salthill are going back to being Salthill Devon FC and playing out of Drom. Mervue will be as they were.

    Davin O'Neill was IMO a victim of the Irish navy. He had all the attributes to make it big, but he may have taken the sensible option and fair play to him for that. He was always good for a goal, but last year just seemed to prove that the Premier was too far out of his reach.....not ability-wise, but in terms of committment. He became very frustrating for the 2nd half of the season. I'd hate to see the fans get on his back too much as he came across as a nice guy and a very honest player.

    Unless Cobh are going down the amateur route then it is unlikely they will be back. It will be 7 teams.

    Reliably informed that they will be going down the amateur road next season that's if they're successful with their license application.

    If the playing staff is amateur it won't stop them going into the first division surely.

    If they come to an arrangement with the PFAI and their former players then I'd imagine they'll be let back in with an amateur set up. The Revenue were paid weren't they?
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    So everything's been announced officially? Nothing on the club's website.
