Ex-bohs youngster David Bracken has signed for Sporting Fingal from Glenavon after completing a medical last Saturday. Decent striker and looks like a very strong squad by First Division standards.
Delaney has signed a 2 year deal with Derry City
Sorry, I hate when people get this wrong, and sorry to go off topic, but it's actually OK to use 'euros', Pedantic Pat.
This is from wikipedia but it's still true:
"While many in Ireland use the "legislative" plurals euro and cent, it is also the case that many people in Ireland continue to use the natural plurals euros and cents. (No census is likely to be made of the relative percentages.) At the time the s-less plurals were introduced, at least some people complained that the EU ought not attempt to "change English grammar". (This was a misunderstanding of the "legislative plural" policy. The Commission has made it clear that local conventions for plural formation should apply in most contexts and the "legislative plural" is expected only in a narrow range of contexts—that is, only in legislation. On the other hand, it remains the case that Irish broadcasters are not following the Commission's recommendations.) People who have become accustomed to what they hear on daily television and radio use the s-less plurals. These are also seen written on the notes and coins, though this is less likely to influence usage than broadcasting."
As the bit in bold clearly shows he's perfectly entitled to use the word 'euros', and is entitled to do so by the EU itself. So there. Fact. End of.
