    Paul Browne gone

    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.

    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 ?

    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

    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!

    Browne

    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.

    I'd say his age does not fit Sean's team profile.
