You can't spell failure without FAI
Dundalk have only signed one player so far who’ll require a work permit, the Faroe’s defender. Of the rest, the keeper was born in Italy, the striker signed from KI is Norwegian and then the Latvian full back. These are all either from the EU or EEA so no work permit needed.
Would the Faroese guy not be a citizen of Denmark too? I've no idea how that is managed.
I don't know, but while searching whether Faroese folks are EU citizens I found this and chuckled. The Brits were unceremoniously fecked out of FI on Jan 1st.

You can't spell failure without FAI
Another wild punt of a signing for Dundalk. Very similar profile to the keeper and the Norwegian striker insofar as he is tall as **** and has bounced around failing at levels below Dundalk for his entire career. These fellas must think they've won the lotto.
Billy King signed back with us. Think most of us will be happy with that, couple of niggly injuries stopped him from getting going properly (along with the stop-start nature of the season) but he showed enough to suggest he could be very good in this league.
Lot of talk of us getting Hery too which would be a bit of a statement. Wouldn't mind a keeper turning up at some stage though personally...
Somewhat off topic but it would appear that Faroese can't avail of freedom of movement within the EU if wiki is to believed - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faro...European_Union
I seem to remember a lot of questions about EU status being asked in London Airport, and a consequent large amount of alcohol being brought into the country back in 2005 when we played there in the WC qualifiers
Steven Beattie signed back at Cork,major signing for them in the First division next season.....

Is there much expectation for CCFC for next season EP, or is it really about keeping the powder dry for a while? It's a division that has really been competitive recently and should be lauded for that. When Dundalk were languishing in the 1st there were mainly just a couple of sides who would realistically be on for promotion and it made it all the more frustrating at the time. I think its a 'steady as he goes' for Cork with hope, as opposed to Galway, Athlone and others who are looking to make a real push on promotion.
Sam Bone signed.
Seriously though can anyone anywhere play in goal.
Bastien Hery is simultaneously reported as close to signing for Pat's (in the Mirror) and Bohs (in the Sun)
Gareth Harkin leaving Harps, our longest serving player, voicing frustration with management over lack of game time, a big loss for us...
Bohs signing Stephen Mallon from Sheffield United on a permanent deal,was at Derry last season on loan...
