    Saw him at the match last Thursday looked as fit as a fiddle and id imagine he was keeping himself fit but its a fair point re Pre Season.
    he might be an impact sub coming on after 60 mins maybe.
    Rovers have missed that this season for a lot of it.

    Im guessing he is an expensive signing but i suppose the hope is we get some points in Europe which pays big

    Possibly seems a bit too mad to be true.
    Declan Devine quoted the day after your post:

    "It's absolute speculation," said the Glens boss when asked about any possible move for Doherty. "There's no chance Ben will be coming to Glentoran, he's more than happy and having an outstanding season at Derry City.
    "I'm best friends with his Dad, I played with his Dad, I was at school with his Dad. But there's absolutely no truth in that rumour at all."

    Derry signed Andre Wisdom,previously off Liverpool and Derby county,has a good pedigree and is not too old so if it works out should be a decent addition…

    Looks like he's played about 12 games since 2021. Blast from the past though, shocked he's only 31.

    Has had a really rough time of it lately since being stabbed in the head in an unprovoked attack in 2020.
    Said he went back to football too quickly initially.
    Hope it works out.

    Yeah I probably should've looked further than his Wikipedia page tbf which only had him playing 12 games. Looks like that has been updated since I looked earlier too.

    I'm gonna say with limited games over 3 years they should have signed his brother Norman Wisdom!!

    Another couple of arrivals at the Brandywell.

    Sean Robertson and Duncan Idehen, both from England.
    Robertson played tonight, and looked lively enough.

    Arran Pettifer has left Pats and signed for Cliftonville. His time at Pats consisted of a red card in the first half of his debut in the LSC against St Mochtas aaaaand, that was it in terms of senior appearances. He becomes the 5th player that Jon Daly signed ahead this season that Kenny has chucked out before the seasons out

    Daly's a good coach but evidently dreadful when it comes to recruitment. An utterly pointless signing and as you allude to he's not the only example.

    Pitaluga joins Livingston in the Scottish second tier, having had his loan at Pat's ended early.

    He's done well to get that tbh

    Yeah, since he’s left you’s are now free to sign world beaters such as *checks notes* Felix Goddard
