    We need the better FD standard players next season, who know the division.

    Lee Devitt and Corey Chambers signed up for next season by Treaty United.

    Have seen little else in the First Division but saw that Antonio Tuta is a free agent on social media and his LinkedIn.

    I was hugely excited when I saw him first but after that he appeared very easy to shove off the ball and extremely lazy at times, maybe he knew he was fighting a lost cause.

    Very very quiet across the division, could be down to the UEFA money issue and clubs waiting to see how things play out

    I think you might be talking about the story where the club hadn't the money to pay the players, Kenny always told the board he would walk if players went unpaid, he was going to quit after a home game one night but someone ran home and scrapped together a load of pennies to make up the deficit and paid the players that night.

    Ex Glentoran manager Mick McDermott has been announced as Cobh Ramblers new manager. Was most recently the assistant manager of the Qatar national team randomly enough

    Which would certainly be a concern for Kerry, given how he stabilised the defence last year after a shaky start. Not sure what became of Aaron O'Sullivan - didn't disgrace himself by any means when he was in goals, but after Tuta returned, he didn't even feature on the bench for the rest of the season?

    O'Sullivan is in UL and playing with Janesboro now. Never seen him play, I don't think.

    Derry have signed former Leicester underage keeper Arlo Doherty on an 18 month deal. Bit of a strange one to sign a player (particularly a goalkeeper) on a permanent contract that ends in the middle of a season

    Sean Hoare is set to sign for Pats according to Owen Cowzer in The Sun. Would imagine if that happens it'll facilitate Keeley returning to Drogheda.

    Jay McLelland signed a new deal , glad to see him stay but surely going to be very hard for him to get game time next season

    The Swiss Army knife. Have to say I love McClelland's attitude, he always puts a shift in in any position he plays and he’s the opposite of a moaner in the squad. Centre back and goalkeeper are the only 2 positions on the pitch he’s not filled in at at some point and that veratility is an asset in case of any injury crisis

    Happy with McClelland staying, he was one that was on the PFAI list I'd hope we'd make an effort to keep. It's going to be tough for him to get many minutes as most of the players in the positions he covers are better than him, but still and all it's good to have a guy that has played in about 6 positions in his time with the club as a squad option. He's also discreetly one of the best penalty takers in the league should the need arise.

    I'm not sure if Ryan McLaughlin has signed up again - seems to be some unclear messaging there - but if not we could do with another right back and that seems to be it at least numbers wise. Probably then a case of one in one out i.e. Hoare for Keeley.

    McLaughlin hasn’t been announced yet, but in the Baggley interview he was asked if it was good to have some familiar faces in the squad in Redmond and McLaughlin who he knows. It was mentioned that McLaughlin was taking him for a coffee and was referred to as a teammate in it so I can only assume from that that either he’ll be announced in the coming days or else he may have signed a 2 year deal last year and the duration of the contract wasn’t revealed at the time. I may be picking it up wrong from the interview but that was my takeaway from it

    if that’s the case it probably puts an end to the links with Darragh Power. Hoare can cover RB if both Sjoberg and McLaughlin are injured.

    Hard to see us adding a defender or midfielder now, apart from Hoare, even assuming Keeley and Bolger move on.
    One more striker, possibly.

    And with that he's confirmed! Kenny evidently happy with much of the existing squad. McLaughlin and Sjoberg are both good players, just would be concerned at both right back options being awfully injury prone.

    Sean Hoare in and Keeley out would leave us covered at centre back and he could also be extra cover at right back if needed

    Yeah that scenario would help ease any concerns. There were a couple of points last season where both right backs were missing and it was another hindrance to an already dodgy period of the season, and you wouldn't be shocked to see it again given the history of the two lads despite how good they've been when available.
