Does that include full back? Because more often than not we have played Morahan and Flores as full backs and while they have been able deputies I would like another full back in

David Odumosu is our new goalkeeper. Previously at Drogs and Pats (and Cliftonville). Is he any good?

I see he’s been bought for an undisclosed fee too. Was a backup keeper at Pats and was pretty awful in the handful of games he played at the start of the 2023 season when Danny Rogers was injured, to the point that Dean Lyness was signed from the free agent market about a month into the season and took the number 1 jersey straight away. Odumosu was a good young keeper at Drogheda before that and has reportedly been very good for Cliftonville since going there

Looks lik we've signed Kian Moore from UCD, who's been warming their bench for the last few months. I guess he's moving from one bench to another for the rest of the season.

I would say Harry Halwax is more likely to be sitting on the bench. He is the worst around.

I'm not a fan by any means but the manager seems to like him and he's generally been ok of late. Missed the game last week but by all accounts, UCD could have scored plenty more goals only for Halwax. He's liable to throw in a rick here and there but sure who isn't in the first division.

Each as bad as the other, take your pick

MASSIVELY improved in recent months. Still has the ability for a clanger every so often but every keeper in the division does. Over the past few months he's probably been one of the better keeps in the division

Let's hope that is the case and Halwax isn't going somewhere as we already had a second choice keeper so it's a strange one

Strange singing. Might be the sort of player Caulfield can get something out of though

Excellent in his early days at Drogheda, did a bit of ***** acting then transfer wise, I'd suggest he got bad advice from somewhere, and Drogs booted him out. Never worked out at Pats but seemed very popular up north. Probably not a bad signing given your position

I think Bolger could do well at Galway. His best attributes are off the ball, his work rate and tackling. Not very good on the ball but he’s not exactly going to be tasked with being a Pirlo type player under Caulfield so the off the ball aspects will serve him well in that very hard working Galway side

Wouldn't be shocked if McCarthy is heading elsewhere. Has barely played at all in a few seasons here. I'd say you'd get sick of that after a while too.

I was his biggest critic a few months ago and thought he should have been dropped after the Dundalk 2-1. But I'll hold my hands up and say he hasn't done a whole lot wrong in the last 3 months. No massive clangers in that time or points dropped because of him.

So I'm surprised at this signing too, dunno what we get out of it, he hasn't played himself in 3 months. Presume he got dropped for a reason. Can't believe I'm saying it but I'd leave Halwax as #1 still.
