Who would you like City to sign?

Who would you like City to sign? What players do you think would realistically improve the squad/first team who were available and within our price range?

**harry crumb** · 01/08/2007, 10:24 PM

Stephen Grey from Drogheda would be a good signing. Without Murray and we would be in panic stations.

Need cover up front and a right winger.

**Risteard** · 01/08/2007, 11:09 PM

BBM definitely. He could be turned into a creat CB.
Bobby Ryan, though he'll probably stay on at Dufermline, in hope of promotion.

Foley in a year or two.
You've got to find players at the right stage of their careers/ contractual positions aswell.
We might stand a chance in signing Lukazs Sosin.
Tadhg Purcell and Derek Glynn would probably be silly prices.
If Grey was available, definitely.

The frustrating thing about our recent transfer history is the inability to sign and give ample opportunity to a striker. He wouldn't even need to be a recent top-scorer. A run of the mill fit eL striker who does okay for a midtable eL team and has a bit of pace would score a lot of goals at the Cross and develop.

I'm talking
Glen Fitzpatrick,
Matthew Judge,
Stephen O'Flynn,
Even Conor Sammon, Mark leech and Davin O'Neill could offer us something different to Behan when Johnno is injured.

**bellavistaman** · 02/08/2007, 11:14 AM

of ye gettin him, well realistically ye obviously could, he would do a job definitly, he is the type of player who you would know by his warm up what type of game he'll have, total hot or cold, loves the big games. And on his day a top class player, IMO most skillful in Div 1, when hes at his total best.

Id like Seamus Coleman off Sligo to replace Ryan who Id move to left wing. Stephen Gray to replace Kelly. Judge would have been ideal but he's just after signing a new deal. Kevin McHugh or Mark Farren would be brilliant as well although I doubt we could get them.

**bellavistaman** · 02/08/2007, 1:49 PM

The lad Ristilla, class IMO.

**micls** · 02/08/2007, 1:51 PM

For next season?

A centre back, 2 wingers, 2 strikers minimum....and quality ones at that.

Yeah I know but he'd still manage at left back, anyway Horgan used to play LB for years so the two could switch, either way City aren't gonna buy him, it would be too sensible a decision for CCFC to make.

Honestly couldnt care less. Depends on whose available and at what cost etc.

Anyone have a list of all out of contract players...

Stephen Grey would be a great signing and someone who may be available. Not really getting the games at Drogheda and will be even further down when Gavin comes back.

Wingers, maybe Brennan from Derry. Not having a great season with them and in and out of the team. he is quality though if we could get him on form.

If Byrne doesnt impress between now and Christmas Id love to go for him. Would be just what we need.

Within the league Derek Glynn might be worth a look if he keeps scoring.

**pete** · 02/08/2007, 4:27 PM

We have enough squad players. Unless a signing goes straight into the first team I don't see the point.

Potential positions would be Centre Defence, Right Wing & Forward.

**Risteard** · 02/08/2007, 6:59 PM

Totally disagree pete.
We urgently need a striker but I don't think that striker would get ahead of Flynn or Roy.
Apart from centre-back the first fully fit 11 is okay. Don't necessarily need 2 wingers imo.
