    You should stick to your usual tactic, troll with a single post and then retreat. When you come back to respond you look even worse than usual. Know your level and stick to it.

    Same fee as Celtic paid for Kenny. Huge loss but they've a bit of money to spend and are in Europe so they're an attractive club to play for

    Wonder why they got cold feet with the Amond deal.

    This article says he was looking for something long term. Maybe Sligo don't offer deals longer than two years?

    Sounds a bit too conservative in my humble opinion....

    Maybe with the Mahon deal, they will go back to Almond?

    I can see the rationale in not giving a 33 year old a long term deal. The only thing is that Loi clubs can’t match what a lot of L1 or L2 clubs are paying so the only way to entice this players is with a longer contract. Not a chance we are paying Doyle what he could get in the UK but the three year deal clinched it for us. He should be good for at least two of the three years and could get involved with coaching on the last year of the deal.

    doyle is better than amond though , can see why they'd baulk at a 3 year deal. that final year is a killer especially if they are on good money.

    Been around the L1, L2 scene a good while now. He has done well at that level bar his stint at hartlepool. I seen him a good few times for them and never seemed to click into gear there.

    Finn Harps have signed Dutch/Turkish centre half Erol Erdal Alkan.

    Ollie really is casting his net wide. How he is getting foreign based players to sign for the self proclaimed perpetual relegation candidates is a mystery!

    I think the LOI is coming up in the world. It’s starting to be seen as a decent opportunity to play in a European league.

    There's foreigners in the Icelandic league and the Faroese league and lots of smaller leagues. Footballers won't refuse money!

    Yeah, some I guess must use it as a way to see the world while they're young. Best of luck to them. This fella will be in for a surprise when he sees Finn Park after a spot of rain though

    Probably on balance not worth the bother - it must be hard trying to work out if these guys are actually any good, and the LoI experience has been spotty at best, even before Dundalk's nonsense last year

    Aiden Keena to Sligo is an interesting one. Was very highly rated at Pats before he moved away and has had fleeting moments of success since but hasn't seemed to be able to settle anywhere. Wouldn't put it past Bucko to get the best out of him and him proving to be an able leader of the line.

    Bohs have signed Ryan Cassidy on loan from Watford. Irish U19 striker who had a fairly nondescript loan spell at Accrington Stanley last year. Always hard to judge signings like that, but sounds like he wouldn't be expected to replace Georgie Kelly in terms of goals scored

    Cassidy is well rated at Vicarage Rd. Sean Murray potential though Murray had more gam time with the 1st team in the championship. I am biased as a Watford fan though.
