    We don't quite have enough defenders yet alright. Even when playing with 5 at the back the other night the likes of Stephen Napier were still on the sidelines!

    Question Strange

    I'd have thought the squad was fairly complete at the moment. OK so a few unproven forwards but a decent squad none the less.

    Hows about a few more fulltime players instead of a huge squad of part-timers? And the club ARE supposed to be having money troubles?

    Lightbulb Fulltimers?

    Greg, Coughlan & Oliie anyway

    Not sure about Jamsie & Devine?

    Point i was tying to make (probably said before) is City should offer any young players who are good enough & want it a 2-3 year fulltime contract! I doubt giving Carey & Horgan for example a fulltime deal would cost much more than part-time contracts to most of the other squad members?

    I think Horgan got a 1 year contract this summer? Surely he deserved more than that? Hes been playing out of his skin for the last year!

    Spot on there. If you are selling them on (NOT that I want that!) surely you'll get more for a full-timer anyway.

    It's madness not to have Carey and Horgan on full time deals - even if they insist on "get-out" clauses. They are, IMHO, vital to our upcomming season - Bobby Petta couldn't get the better of either of them - just so long as some cynical ******* doesn't break their legs. They are important to the club and they should be make feel that way.

    AFAIK there are four full-time people employed by the club: Greg O'Halloran, Ollie Cahill, James Mulligan and Michael Devine.

    I always thought Derek had a day job on top of playing for City.

    Derek has always worked a day job as far as I know. Didn't he miss a couple of midweek games last season due to work commitments? Bray?
