    It's great to see these lads resigned for next season. For whatever comes through the door, it's very important to see lads from the area push on and keep that local continuity with the squad. Id like to see U20 Player of the Year Shane Stack involved next year, a great talent and still only 18 years old. Ryan Perez & Luke Doolan to be added too with that mix!

    Add Jonas Hakkenin & Cian Murphy to that and we have 3 players who played Premier Division & each won the first division already!

    Very shrewd signings by Healy and I doubt the club is finished yet.

    Despite the likelihood of Teahan moving on to Dundalk, the team and squad already look the strongest we will have had yet!

    Another CB, CM, & Winger of the caliber that have joined should cement the best transfer window we have had. If Teahan stays, huge huge bonus but can’t see him turning down the opportunity to play Premier Division Football.

    It will be interesting to see Okwute this upcoming season. I reckon a good pre-season under his belt, an off season of maturing and add Healy who is renowned for improving players could be the catalyst for him to really start fulfilling his potential, still only 22.

    Kilian Cantwell brings a lot of experience. As the signings and re-signings are being announced, a playoff push is becoming stronger. Additions that should help find the consistency required.

    Unless the plan is to promote some of the U20s to the senior squad, we're looking fairly threadbare in midfield with Crowe and Ronan gone now.

    I would have thought by now we would have added at least another 2 signings since Christmas. On the positive though based on the signings to date, the club and Healy seem to be going for quality over quantity. What’s the story with Joe Adam, has he left - he was not named as one of the 7 players that departed a few months back??

    Injured at the moment, apparently.

    You won't find too many Harps fans disappointed at him departing us. He was awful.

    another center forward, says he can play on the wing too. 6’2” probably suggest more suited up top. Fair to say we are covered now with at least 6 CFs at the club. Last season we went mad for center halves. Has played 30
    NIFL premier games with cliftonville which is probably standard of top 3 div 1, lower 3 prem LOI and well used to Astro as well. Really interested in team and formation for tomorrow’s outing at Leeds Cork.
