The club don't rely on gate receipts they never had so I doubt people stopping going will bother them in fact that's clear already as dozens of life time fans have stopped attending this season but the club don't give 2 f*cks. I have nothing but respect for Jim Hanley but the members of that committee (not all of them it must be said) are a waste of space.
Anyone know anything about the new goal keeper Ryan Coulter,
Was with athlone when they were relegated as sub keeper to Paul Skinner. However when Skinner made a number of howlers Coulter took his position and kept it till the end of the season after some unreal performances. Very unlucky not to keep athlone up he was superb. Earned a full time move to Sligo where he was a total disaster. Only played 7 games before being released. Was at athlone again this season but only played 3 games with everything that was going on at the club. So basically we have to hope he will put pressure on Skinner to up his performances.
Outspoken You don't know what you're talking about! The club need every penny they can get like most other clubs in the league. So do you think the few people that go selling club lottos on a Friday, Saturday and Sunday should stop? As regards budget or cost cutting as you call it if you were around long enough you'd realise the club was in a serious financial situation in 07 (which I'm not going into detail on) there's also a mortgage on the ground which was interest only for a time. Structures have been put in place to help the club going forward and sticking to the budget is the most important one. The "supporter's" out there that have a chip on there shoulder over flares need to grow up. They have cost Longford Town money in fines already and continue to do damage with there negative opinions on social media. Jim Hanly and committee have put there hands in there pockets many times to keep Longford in business . The only thing the club is guilty of is keeping there business personal and standing by a manager they belief will get us to safety . The day Jim Hanly walks away from Longford Town will be a sad day
he was with dundalk in 09 played one game and then went across the water to college football. We will more than likely see his dad at games who is the famous singer/singer Phil Coulter from Derry!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
So we've signed another kid from England.....
Yes, Eddie Dsane formerly of Preston and Fleetwood. 19 year old English lad according to Google. Seems a bit random but you never know he could be decent. Goes without saying that we need a few more in, wherever we can get them from.

Seems like a big lad so hopefully at the very least he throws himself around and that should go along way to helping him settle unlike other signings from England we've made recently.
To be fair the last well known striker to come out of Fleetwood Town hasn’t done too badly for himself.
But realistically can we really expect a player that has been let go by Fleetwood in February this year to come into the LOI and set it alight? .....Nope don't think so.
The truth fears no questions...
It's only when the tide goes out that you learn who's been swimming naked
Fleetwood developmental side I would like to point out
Rossitor gone by mutual consent.
Badly need a commanding centre half in there. 4 goals last night from 4 headers. We have no centre half who is commanding in the air. And needs to be in place by the Derry game.
That is about to be rectified according to what I've been told by a very reliable source who had informed me earlier today Rossi would be on his way out. Rossi was a gent but has hardly played this season so makes sense to clear up some funds for this new defender. Also told we are in the market for a midfielder
Leixlip United were asking people on their Facebook if they would be willing to put up "1 or 2" players LTFC are bringing over from the UK for the rest of the season. Ideally families who would give them their meals. So sounds like there are more imports on the way. Suspect Phil Munnelly may have a hand in this as he has a lot of contacts over there.

Couldn't they get a house in Longford?
I don't understand Longford having a nice training facility and doing their training in Leixlip.

Suppose they could but they'd have to live in Longford. Not much to do there in fairness apart from boozing.
As regards training we'd be at a disadvantage to the teams we'd be competing with for players if they have to travel to Longford three nights a week plus every second Saturday. We'd have to pay a lot more to make up for it. The population base around Longford wouldn't sustain a competitive LOI team in either division. We tried it for a while when Aaron Callaghan was manager.

Could be argued that it builds continuity though. Hardly productive to have to ask an entire squad of players to travel an hour and a half to get to their own home games either?

It's not ideal, no, but travelling on a Saturday afternoon is a lot less hassle than doing it midweek after work.

I've no problem with the club training in Dublin, it helps attract players from around the capital. Wouldn't be any point in living in Longford and having to go to Dublin to train. As also mentioned localally based players have often had a habit of ''lushing''
