Didn't make a squad after mid-March and looking at a Carlisle forum there's suggestions he was never fully fit and carrying a bit of weight, but I don't think he was actually injured/unavailable.

(On a separate note, soccerway was a great site for getting info on appearances - but there was an update last week and it's almost unusable now. Don't know am I the only one to see that. Bizarre stuff)

There have always been questions over Patchings effort and consistency, he was 50/50 at best when in a battle of a game. Unquestioned ability and should have been playing at higher levels. Its like he rated himself very highly and if a game wasnt technically good where he could play his game, he sulked and went quiet. Going to Carlisle was likely his best or only option as he really wouldnt have liked a bottom of L2 physical game every week. Even LoI isnt as raw and frantic as desperately trying to stay in league football. Luxury player in a good side.

I'd almost forgotten about him. Very talented but never delivered on his potential. He had a great hot streak with us some years back and was fun to watch.

mcglade isnt good for your blood pressure, chap is as thick as a ditch.

Word going around that Mousset has left Bohs. We got the Sligo goal out of him at least but he can't stay fit at all. If we're going to push Rovers we have to have someone we can rely on.

He plays like a child in the school yard but, going back 7 or 8 years now, he was very entertaining to watch for a while.

McGlade will do a job in first division no bother. But I'd like to think Dundalk are preparing for premier next season, so I'm surprised they're looking at him. He won't dig ya out of a relegation fight.

Also Kyle O'Connor was captaining Athlone last night after he had been released 3 weeks ago. Not a word out of them that he had signed back. Athlone continue to work in mysterious ways

Seen that alright. Do need to sign someone in the window as Whelan is not exactly prolific either.
