Ger is 17/18 and played most if not all of his schoolboy footy with the Dines.

He is apporx 6ft and is a goalkeeper, also played with CBS, and also with Dines Junior team on a few occassions last season.

Good lad on and off the pitch, and the very best of luck to him.

Ger becomes the 3rd Dines player in the last decade to sign for a porfessional club.

Best of luck to young Barron and well done the dines.

Yes, I think Dines should take a lot of the credit and fair play to them.
They look after their schoolboy and youth teams.

[summervilleman]

How is that "great news for football in Limerick"?. If he signed for Limerick FC then yeah, it's great news for football in Limerick but how does him signing for a Scottish club boost football in Limerick?
