Bohs and Galway interested in Ryan Kelliher….

Bohs interested in John Mountney too apparently
I doubt it will have any bearing. From the onset many GUFC fans thought that was a strange move. Kelliher makes a lot more sense.Originally Posted by culloty82
You could also point to us signing Hickey from Athlone Town in the First Division as an example, and the huge impact he made.
roddy collins you're a flanker you're a flanker!
Id certainly welcome taking a pint in a player like Kelleher. Looked a handful when he played against us. Scored a decent amount for Kerry last season and he could be a solid back up to Whelan, who obviously has his injury concerns. Mountney on the other hand I'd avoid like the plague. Looking at his injury history he's missed nearly 60 games in the last couple of seasons. I hope this is just speculation based on Stephen O'Donnell being a mate of his and being on Bohs coaching staff
Regarding Mountany. In the first season he was back with us he done his ACL missed whole season basically, came back next season and done ACL again and missed all the season
The season just gone he was back fit after about game 7 or 8 and I don't think he missed a game since and a plus with him he can play anywhere, top my head he has played RB, LB, CM, RM and even up top in his 2 spells with us
Yeah I could be overthinking the impact of the injuries but he's 31 with two ACL injuries and Bohs are vocally cutting their budget. I think you can take a risk on the likes of Whelan because good strikers are very hard to come by in this league but I'm not sure that mountney fits the same bill
Mountney did his ACL in his lone season with Pats too. If you could hypothetically assure his fitness he's a useful squad player but that's far from the case.
Speaking of injury prone full backs, Axel Sjoberg has signed back with Pats for next season. Very happy with that as he's been excellent when fit, which was much more frequent an occurrence once Kenny came in. Ryan McLaughlin has similarly been good when fit, which has also been rare, so I'd probably like another more reliable option in there for the sake of security.
Sjoberg signed back at Pats. Just Grivosti to tie down now from the 11 who were the main starters in the 9-in-row finish to the season.
Liam Burt returning to Rovers from Shels twitter account,for now anyway….

Stephen Elliott set to become the new Wexford manager

Is this the ex ROI International?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Alex Nolan expected to sign for Cork City
Ciaran Coll off to Glentoran

Yep, he was Head of Pats academy and the manager of Pats u20's since the start of this year. He’d have a good knowledge of players in the underage leagues from that role so that should be a bonus for Wexford

Tom Grivosti announcement incoming from Pats, which is huge news for us. I'd have him right up there as one of the most underrated players in the league personally, has been brilliant whilst fit.
Alex Nolan to Cork confirmed. Wish him well but I'm yet to be convinced by him as a starter at this level.
That’s the full first choice eleven tied down along with the most important back-ups apart from Romal Palmer. When fully rehabilitated he’s a level or two above LOI so it’s probably very unlikely we’ll get him again.
John Mountney announces Dundalk departure….

Dan McDonnell is reporting that shels have agreed a deal to sign Ryan O'Kane, Rayhaan Tulloch retention to be announced soon and also the rumours of them being in for Danny Grant and Richie Towell are apparently false
Paaatrick's Agletic
Yeah, the situation with Palmer is a tricky one. Dan McDonnell suggested a deal was being worked on but you'd imagine he'll have more appealing options back in England given he's played well at Championship level previously and then impressed here last season. Probably a similar one to Jarvis with Shels where you're hoping the positive experience at the club already will do a lot of the heavy lifting.
Not a lot of work left for Pats to do which is encouraging, by my count that's 19 already signed up. Could do with another right back and midfielder at a minimum, nice-to-haves maybe an additional midfielder/general forward player and a replacement for Keeley were he to leave. Would have that sweet spot of 22-23 players but with a lot of continuity there.
Elliott confirmed as Wexford manager now and O'Kane confirmed by Shels. McDonnell has said that Dundalk were due €35k compensation fee for him but it’s been agreed that Shels will pay a lower up front amount with add-ons based on future performance factored into the deal
