    Gary Rogers retiring per Twitter.

    So that gives Rovers and Dundalk one key position to fill already.

    Interesting pre-season ahead.

    Gary O'Neill was 1st choice last year with Rovers so Bolger was back up ultimately. Still needs replacing tho.

    Meant Jack Byrne, although I guess that's just strongly rumoured, not confirmed alright.

    Nothing confirmed on Jack yet.

    Dessie Farrell signs for Dublin County, apparently his previous form at centreforward was spotted by the foriegn owners
    Chairman Bill also tracking this move

    Big decision by Bradley to let him go. He wouldn't have been first-choice next season with O'Neill fit but he'd have been a great player to rotate in and we'll need to replace him. He's definitely good enough to play for a team competing for Europe.

    Robbie McCourt also signed for Sligo Rovers. No signings to announce yet from Waterford. This is the usual story in our off season until late in the day.

    I really thought Dundalk would convince Rogers to stay on another year or two, seeing as it's not been a priority to get a new keeper these last few years. Now they actually need one. I know McCarey's there, but from what I saw of him vs Wien, he's a lesser version of Rogers. Maybe this is his chance to show how good he can be, however.

    The hope was high for McCarey in Dundalk, it wasn't so long since he was in the national squad before returing to Ireland. Unfortunatly, Rogers was too stable to replace (side not, I dont think Rogers ever got the respect he deserved from other LOI fans....). Seems McCarey got the 'yips' when he did get a run (especially coming for crosses). Maybe he needs a fresh start too, and might make a very decent LOI keeper for someone else. Rumours is Dundalk are going abroad for a keeper before Rogers retired, so maybe they will go abroad for two (which doesnt fill me with much hope).

    McCarey is not good enough, I wouldn't like to see him staying. We needed a top class GK regardless for 2021.

    Timing is always key for a player to retire, and I think Rogers has made the right call, he leaves very much on a high, and has been a fantastic servant to DFC in 6 great seasons, winning 10 major trophies and playing in 2 EL group stages.

    With the benefit of the nightmare we had at rovers before big al cane back there is no position more important.

    I always thought highly of Rogers , particularly as a person. He was absolutely rubbish during the Jeff Kenna season but wasn’t on his own in that regard. He then bounced back the following year under Peter Mahon and became very dependable between the sticks. I’d say it was easy to let the 09 season affect his confidence but he shook it off and went on to have a fantastic career.

    Deegan to Drogheda... adds a bit of steel to them. Drogheda seem to be recruiting very well so far.

    Wonder would ex Dundalk GK whos left Derry City Peter Cherrie go back to his old haunt as a stop gap?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    I see Athlone as well have added two players - Shane Barnes from Cabo and Stephen Meaney from Drogheda

    You wonder how clubs are budgeting for next season, or indeed how they've come through this season. OK, the Athlone guys may well be on amateur terms. But it feels a normal enough (early) pre-season so far, when I might have expected things to be a fair bit quieter - at least until there's some view as to when next season will start or whether fans will be allowed into games.

    If Dundalk want even more howlers next season than this, then yes he’d be ideal. We need to improve our goalkeeper next season not go backwards.
