paul keegan gone

[Martinho II]

see in todays star that keego looks like he will leave us for partick thistle. partick have appointed a new boss and keegan has one year on his contract left with us. if he leaves us matthews will try to sign peter hynes(6foot! NOT 6 FEET!) dublin city striker.

[Longfordian]

Eh..it is 6 feet marty ..Hope Keegan gets fixed up alright, still not sure we need to have possibly five strikers, unless he's considering Barrett a winger/striker

[Martinho II]

longfordian,

i know it is 6 feet in the article just an awful typing error!

[Longfordian]

Fair enough, didn't know what you were on about on first reading..

[Martinho II]

see in todays paper that keegos trial period with partick is over. partick has declined the chance to sign for him and it looks like he will be on his way back to longford town in the next week or so for preseason training. with dessie,avril,barrett and myler there will there room for keego next season?

[Longfordian]

He doesn't really want to come back to Ireland and we don't really need him back so maybe he'll get sorted with some other team but he only has until the 31st of January to do so or he's back to us
