We can only hope if we keep posting headlines in here, the papers will eventually pick them up as exclusives.

Many's a story is broken on here to be fair. We may as well give them the headlines while we're at it.

"Keepersball outed as larger-then-life agent Pat Dolan"

**Dunny** · 02/01/2015, 9:26 PM

"Threads derailed as posters get bored out of their brains over Christmas"

**Longfordian** · 02/01/2015, 9:40 PM

"in LOI off-season" would also work

**Eminence Grise** · 02/01/2015, 11:39 PM

Malahide 'n' seek for Matthews

Finders Keepers - Kane coy over Bray, Tarmonbarry bids (NOW it's the off-season, lads!)

**Nah Nah Nah Nah** · 03/01/2015, 10:54 AM

Is Kane able for Tarmonbarry?

**Eminence Grise** · 03/01/2015, 1:45 PM

Able? Kane will murder 'em. Just you Adam and Eve it!

Cobh apparently announcing a big signing tomorrow. Has played for a number of Premier Clubs. Things looking a lot better this year than last

Uneducated guess, Ian Turner? Ex Cork City/Limerick. Although I'd imagine he could possibly get a bigger club if he was bothered leaving Cork. May suit him to play with Cobh.

Shane O'Connor from Limerick

Excellent signing for Cobh. I think he'll be a big loss for us.

**Longfordian** · 04/01/2015, 2:36 PM

Cobh must have a bit more money to spend this year. Could be quite competitive.

**cheifo** · 04/01/2015, 3:05 PM

What a signing for Cobh. Presuming they didn't outbid Limerick so other reasons?

He saw the state we're in at the moment and saw Cobh as a safer bet

**Lim till i die** · 04/01/2015, 3:16 PM

My immediate reaction was he was signing an amateur form to get out of retention.

But I think he's 24??

I dunno, is he joining the navy

Good signing for Cobh, I noticed Stephen Folan on twitter saying he is too good for 1st Division level. Safe to say that the 1st division has an image problem but is the gap between it and bottom 3rd of premier that big?

Between Cobh and the bottom 3rd yes it is and he didn't play for a team in the bottom third he played for a team in the top half of prem.

Longford and Galway will give us a good idea standard-wise anyway. Cobh were very poor last year, but the two teams mentioned and Shels did not have a big gulf between them and UCD, Athlone, Bray and Drogheda I think.
