shocking really now we need two good strikers
From BBC Sport.
Striker Brown opts for Ballymena
Paul Brown helped Sligo win promotion in the Eircom League
Ballymena United have won the race to sign Paul Brown from Sligo Rovers.
The former Limavady United striker has agreed a deal which will keep him with the Sky Blues until the end of the 2007-08 season.
Brown is likely to go straight into Tommy Wright's side for the league game against Cliftonville on Saturday.
Glenavon and Coleraine had also been interested in Brown who helped Sligo Rovers win the First Division in the Eircom League last year.
Brown's decision means he will link up again with boss Wright, having played for him at Limavady.

Not a big loss really although it means we definitely need to sign at least one more striker now. When Brown arrived I expected a lot from him cos of Sean's big interest in him but he never really proved himself and I don't think he'd be able to cope in the Premier really. What would annoy me more is if we didn't get any money for him considering the Trust did pay part of the transfer and I don't think it'd be fair to just let him go for free..Originally Posted by BBC Article
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
what a waste of money then
no mention of a fee yet but he had one year to go so we must have got one...please
mc tiernan and alvarez....well mc t only signed..alvarez is still on trial
getting a bit worried
3 strikers...forgot flannery
I'd say our odds will drift out a bit now...
Wonder how much they got for him, wasn't he in a two year contract ?

not the worst news ever though...I believe he was on big wages.
not a big loss as ye say,he was about as effective as carlos alverez.he did have one great game though,cant remember exactly who against,think it was pats? he was supposed to have signed for us for 7000,hopefully we make that back
seán's not an idiot, he obviously has some1 ready to come in to take brown's place&needs to free up money. i'd say we got our money back on brown too

People have asked me what I have done with Sean [Flannery] because he has played so well this year. In terms of coaching I have obviously worked on pieces of his game but, to begin with, he is obviously a very, very good player."Originally Posted by wild rover
whatever some ppl on here think of him SC obviously doesn't agree&i think it's quite possible it will be flannery plus A.N.Other come march 11th

Strange decision though, considering Sean spent so much time and effort chasing him in the first place. Hopefully we recouped our money and that he has another signing lined up instead!
The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.

Roy Keane is still a pri*k!
i wasnt abusing flannery,i just forgot him cos im stupid!Originally Posted by Red4Eva
flannery can be a big player next season for us
In fairness he was fairly ineffective. Showed some great touches in a lot of games but that was about it. Flannery has super technique but time will tell I guess.
my bad!Originally Posted by wild rover
i think it's gonna be interesting to see how flannery&mct do next year, it's totally a case of wait&see how they can flourish
