Cobh Ramblers have signed Scottish midfielder Rhys Gourdie for the rest of the 2025 season. Spent the last few years in the USA competing at the elite level of the University Soccer system. Has been training with the club for a couple of weeks and goes straight into the squad for the home game against Athlone.

Stephen Mallon has left Sligo and signed for Glenavon
Paaatrick's Agletic
Not that strange at all, exactly the type of player Caulfield loves and a likely replacement for McCormack.
Just seeing now that Sean Robertson was released by rovers last week having played a total of 7 minutes since signing. A weird signing to say the least

Yeah I suppose I just meant strange as in he was in and out of the Longford team when relegated in 2021, went to Cork and I think possibly relegated there too, moved to Pats and again was in and out (costly red card in UECL play off in turkey) and after a spell without a club is signing for another PD team. But you're right, he's the sort of player JC could get the most out of. I thought Aodh Dervin's best football was when JC played him on the right wing, got the most out of his energy.
A transfer of sorts, new owners at Athlone at last

Time will tell what way that goes. But there's at least a couple of names gone from the club that I think fams were fed up of
Are they completely gone? Article said something along the lines of they are stepping away from the day to day stuff
Their Twitter post says they've departed the club. But doesn't say it on their website strangely
Yep, article on website and the socials posts differ, that is strange
