i wouldn't say that. he was going to concentrate on the soccer and play with the minor team but when he was called up to the senior team he could hardly concentrate on soccer anymore.

in parks current situation would not be a good move for him to join them,, then again if he is park through & through who knows

was talking to dux a while ago he will be home in the summer i think, im almost sure thats when he said and he is thinking of going down to cork when he gets home i think...he always liked it down there so he'll probably try and get back in to the city set up.

But who knows maybe he'll come back and sign for park like the prodigal son!!!
and drag them back into the premier league ............but not likely really...is it?

Did park get any players back over the last few weeks??

I wonder would anybody consider getting a team/squad together and trying to go over to France to play Guingamp as they are twinned with shannon. Would be a cool thing to do and might be some early steps in getting a cracking team together to represent shannon !!

About ten or eleven years ago a team from shannon went over to guingamp to play in a tournament which we won. People put us up in their houses. maybe getting on to the organising people over there again might be an idea.

slotts ... be honest here would it be possible to get a good team out of shannon (teams ) now.. big difference from 10 years ago.. when you had no problem picking players...
can you name team that went over back then ,,, trying to remember but cannot recall

I think you'd get a decent Shannon team out of the teams in Shannon, it'd be so much better if you could also include the players living in Shannon but not playing for a Shannon based team. I don't see why you can't include them in it though. Its a good Idea and I'm sure there would be alot of players interested in the idea aswell.

name your decent 11 shannon players .. !! i still think shannon would struggle to put together a decent team at the moment ..

i disagree i dont think we would have any hassle putting together a strong panel...whether it would win anything or not is another question...

shannon woulb be well able to put out a decent side. but only if it could include people who dont play in shannon. definately
Shannonman we signed ritchie murphy, sean gunn, brendan mc keogh hedge is back from injury (out for 2 months). also gareth quirke is back after a 3 month absence.

Just a few names you could have on the squad
from Newtown
(Just some of the younger fitter players FROM SHANNON hopefully no offence to the older heads.)
from Newtown
Skinny, Derek Byrne, Ryan Kelly, Tom O'hare, Cheeky, Eamonn O'neill, David Egan.. just to name a few.

from Oly
Donnacha Kelly, Jay Regan, Ian Hogan, Jimmy Houlihan, John Ryan, Terry Dougan, Steven Carroll... i'm sure there's a few more in there squad that can be thrown in.
Thats 15 players from just 2 of the teams.

I'm not too sure of the Park and Shannon Town squads but i know theres still some good players on both teams.. maybe Parkfan and Shannonman could help me out..

But like I said it'd be much better if it had some of the players that are from Shannon who are playing 'abroad'
