I for one definately wouldn't like to see Derek O'Brien back at the club!

We'd be looking at a fairly good squad if we can Russell and Coneely, while O' Brien might be a good impact sub.

----------------Brush----------------
Coneely--Peers--Keane--Davoren
McCabe--Russell--O'Grady--Doyle
---------Blinkhorn--Amond---------

Our confirmed and possible back up's

Kelly
Foran
Marshall
Meenan
O' Brien
Ryan
Ventre
Cass

Cook is looking for a squad of about 20 players IIRC, thats a potential squad of 19 which dosen't look too bad. The starting line up would be different by opinion but ye get the point.

Is Kelly signed for sure? you are right it is not a bad starting situation and a lot better than last season.

I'm still concerned about where our goals will come from this season(as I am most seasons). If Amond is a bust what will we do?

four months is a long time, dont know if we can afford the wait, whats the injury?
dont see where the central midfielder we need is gonna come from, probably england cause wouldnt be too excited about the out of contract players left in the LOI

Dont know think Blinks will be much improved this season with a proper pre-season behind him and will be even better than he was last season. If 1 of them gets injured think Doyle would be a more than useful replacement up there but i suppose i still wouldnt mind having another striker!!

Cook confirmed Kelly as Brush's understudy for the forthcoming season at the forum on Sunday.

I think your right. I know anything new needs time to get established but I find it all too pale. Not enough contrast in the colouring.

Thanks for that, glad Kelly is on board he is a useful backup to Brush.

I have to say lads. Compared to other seasons we have a very good looking bunch of players. I for one will not be missing one game.

Better than this time last year definitely. Still a bit short on quality through the centre for my liking. Lose Peers and we will suffer again. Also, we have no creativity in midfield. Blinks and Amond will need a decent supply. Remember we can't lump balls pver the top for Cretaro to chase anymore!!
