We need to add some width. If that can be done, I think we'll be competitive.

Competitive?!

You're going for 4 in a row... You'd want to be a bit more than competitive I think!

Well they did lose 3 very important players as opposed to only one in each of the previous 2 seasons. Losing players like the ones they have lost this year would impact any team, but they have made a few good signings so I still see them being right up there as one of the favourite's.

We are Evs Favs in the bookies. White Horse is just playing down expectations.

Once the rest of the signings are confirmed we have a strong squad with the best starting XI IMO

Bookies are always correct, remember that.

It's Cork's title to lose.

Aye but was he not offered a new one especially towards the end of last season when he stepped up and did really well.

Not to the level that he was expecting. Schlingerman was already signed to the end of 2018.

Six clean sheets in 7 games, and that wasn't good enough!

Nobody saying he wasn't good enough. He was offered a contract and he didn't accept it.

I seen Nugent pre-season and he wasn't great, so was worried when he came in toward the end of the season. But in fairness to him he had improved with full time training and done well. I'd still prefer Shlingerman, he has proven himself over a longer period and is probably going to be our first choice. Which may have been a reason he left too.
