Official transfers, new contracts (NO RUMOURS!)

**Magicme** · 30/11/2007, 8:31 AM

Robbie Farell has left Monaghan United and signed for Dundalk. They are slowly building our dream team. If they get Myler they are almost complete.

Don't think that is very likely to happen

Taken from his questions and answers http://www.irishfootienetwork.com/vi...ighlight=myler

Do you know who Craptown are?

Please!!!

Would you ever sign for Craptown? You were linked last season weren�t you?

Don�t think so. I�d shudder to think what the song would be changed to!!

Do you really hate Craptown like the song used to say �Andy Myler is a Drog, he hates Craptown�?

I�ve no plans to take holidays there anyway

Brendan Kennedy wasn't with us last season Magicme. He was with us for the 2006 season though.

**Magicme** · 30/11/2007, 12:10 PM

doh, just realised that when went to double check it now. See am in work and got the phone call so cobbled a press release together a little too quickly! Dammit!

**steno** · 30/11/2007, 12:12 PM

No worries Magicme just letting you know, these things happen

**Magicme** · 30/11/2007, 12:18 PM

I never really rated Kennedy, good for kicking the ball the length of the pitch, is a decent shot stopper but is very slow on his feet.

Mulcahy is good though, he didn't get much of a look in at Kildare because of a row with John Ryan but I thought he did well for us when he did play.

I don't see Andy Cousins' name on your list magicme, has he been let go?

**Magicme** · 30/11/2007, 12:28 PM

Not all player negotiations have been completed yet. Mick still needs to finalise some stuff with some players so am not getting into speculation on their status until that has been done.

Mick is away for the next week on holidays so will be after that when I can confirm more.

**steno** · 30/11/2007, 12:47 PM

Kennedy was responsible for some howlers and his positioning wasn't great either. Mulcahy was alright but went missing in some games playwed for County in 2006 season.

**bholg** · 30/11/2007, 1:26 PM

'Craptown' .. please...

If anyone ever needed evidence that a majority of drogs are simpletons...

Ridiculously good for the likes of Monaghan.

Real gut buster if it's the same fella I'm thinking of.

Type of guy could be done with in Limerick

Your probably thinking of Dave Mulcahy, Alan used to play for us before Waterford, a talented player but think he has an attitude problem, could go either way for youse.

**blue til i die** · 30/11/2007, 6:22 PM

alan mulcahy didnt get many games this season due to injury, but when he played, he didnt seem to offer much, not the greatest touch and not much pace. not really that bothered about him leaving.

We have also signed michael foley,after being released by St Pats.

**DRDoc** · 01/12/2007, 4:32 AM

Alan Mulcahy - for a player that started so few games this season for Waterford and who didnt look up to much for the limited time he was on the field I found it amazing that Cronin started him in the playoff final at the rsci

Although Im not sure Cronin knows what he is at

**Magicme** · 01/12/2007, 8:28 AM

Mick is good at turning players with "bad attitudes" around. Darren Meenan came to us last season with all of the Harps fans saying he had a bad attitude and you wouldnt find a more committed and enthusiastic player.

Managers have a lot more to do with players attitudes than they are given credit for.
