    Would Any Rovers Player Get Near Our Squad?

    With Rovers putting all their players up for sale today, is there any that you think could add to our squad?

    Yer man McCourt, perhaps?

    Molloy might be ok to have on the bench, Payne as reserve keeper, other than that no, except for McCourt like you said.
    As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.

    I think McCourt is too similar to George O'C (McCourt's goal against Harps was something else ). Could your team afford to have two v. skilful, v.similar players in the same XI?
    I know Danny Blanchflower once said that it's the unskillful players are the luxury not the skillful ones, but you know what I'm getting at here, if McCourt signed it might upset the balance of your team. Good player though.

    I'd have to agree, i think Molloy would be a massive assit to ANY eL team, great player and has seemed to calm down a lot over the past couple of seasons.

    Payne is back in the states. He left Rovers a couple of weeks ago.

    McCourt is a very good player, would happily take him. Apart from that not really. Its not like we need many players anyway

    I have heard people say McCourt has gone to Motherwell in Scotland and that its a done deal. I thought last week was his last game for Rovers? Mccourt would be a huge signing for the club, he is a class player.

    There are reports that McCourt might be persuaded to go to Derry. Motherwell is not a done deal yet.

    Behan is good now and has bags of potential.
    When he recovers from the broken cheek which has kept him out for the past couple of weeks, you'll see him up there with the top scorers.
    Molloy is past it and more trouble than he's worth.

    Im just saying like! If he could score a few important goals for us Im sure everyone would like him then I wouldnt be rushing out to get him or anything, but he's not a bad player. (He's still my number 2 'hate' player though, after Olli€ Ca$hil )

    'after Olli€ Ca$hil'

    I know its a bit off topic but on that, why is cahill a judas because he left for more money - though if poncy george leaves for more money he is not a judas ?

    Georgie is from Cork so he's being ambitious.
    Ollie is from Tip so he's just being greedy.
