    New signings?

    OK, the June 1st date has come any new signings.

    IMO we should get Ollie back ( especially if he is not happy @ $hell$ - let's face it he's no Reynolds ).
    That guy Kirby from Longford is a good talent.
    We also need another guy for the center of defence.

    I have been impressed by Behan so I think we should be OK for a while up front - Friday will be a big test without Flynny.

    Anyone have any inside info.

    We need to get some few soon before we slip into more serious trouble.

    Exclamation Some bloke

    Some bloke coming over for Engerland on trials has cancelled twice costing the club €140 each time. It would be OK if we know that we had the player, but it is just a wind pu right now.

    We need to sort the middle of the park urgently !!

    I am not sure ... Thats why i didn't say it was him. It seems like there is a bit of fúckin' about to be honest. Doesn't give a good impression for me anyway, does this player want to come or not. We don't need some half hearted primadonna coming over acting the maggot.

    Well from what I've heard the players haven't seen sight nor sign of Breslan yet so you can draw your own conclusions there...

    Anyway, we shouldn't bother with the guy if he's carrying on like that, he's a failed player at a club that got relegated from the English 3rd division, who does he think he is???

    BBM was spotted around Cork at the weekend. Since Wednesday got relegated, he might be surplus to their requirements.

    The Guardian just posted a list of all the players released in the football league in England. No sign of Joe G, BBM, Damien Delaney. The only one of note that I spotted is Dominic Foley.

    Clifford Byrne, Jimmy Corbett, Gavin Kelly, Joe Kendrick (now of 1860 Munich I believe), John McGrath and Brian Murphy are all Irish players released by English Premiership Clubs.

    There's a post on www.eirways.com/citynet by golly, says he was talking to Dolan at the u21 match and the lad isn't coming over due to personal problems.

    It's a bit harsh to start knocking players before they even arrive in the country when we don't know what's going on.

    I dunno, if someone is fcuking around then it is just a knee jerk reaction to be honest. He is not very forth coming to the club so he couldn't expect any better (or could he, thats the way i'd look at it if it were me being fcuked about) .... but yeah ... we dont know the full and he ain't no Robert Carlos so not that worried either right now.

    BBM is definitely NOT leaving Sheffield Wednesday. I know for sure, Chris Turner is a big fan of his he signed him at Hartlepool and again at Sheff wed.

    new signings

    i dont think brian lennox would want anymore new signings,

    he has got a pannel of 29 with only 15 to field (including subs)

    thats 14 other payers he has to pay for training and just think 14X€200(at least)€2,800 a week lost on players who just train for the week and turn up to matches

    if he wants to bring in some new players then i think some surplus players might have to leave to trim the wages
    i`m back and i didnt bring no dame ball with me all i brought was a big fat can of whooop ass Austin 3:16

    yeah, there's some players who've hardly figured in the first team squad during their time at the club, no point in holding on to people if they're not going to press for a place. We need more quality players though.

    i think they'll definitely look for a few players, they may trim the squad down a little but more quality is needed, a few midfielders wouldn't go amiss for a start.

    In my book we're short 3 midfielders as it is- I think Greg is the only midfielder playing well enough to keep his place in the side if some dcent reinforcements came in. behan and Doyle have done very well but they're both strikers. there's no real spark of creativity in there at the moment

    well, it does seem that we have to many "surplus players". So who would u release?

    here is my assessment

    Deccie Daly .
    Probably taking too much money for a bench player.

    Noel Mooney .
    We would probably get a fee for him, and id imagine he gets a fairly big wage, for a guy who hasnt played an important match for 2 seasons.

    Cillian Lordan .
    Play him or sell him.

    Dave Warren .
    Ditto. He is too good a player to leave rot in the stands. Hate to see him go, but pls, let him have a chance. He cant be any worse tham our current midfielders.

    Mick Mulconroy .
    Never really settled with City. Dont think he is Prem Div standard. Pity, as he was an excellent player with UCC.

    John Andrews .
    Sorry now Steven17, but he just hasnt done anything for us. And now that you say that he is on at least €200 a week, well, that sounds like a total waste of money to me.

    ________________________________

    Hedderman, while i disagree with those that say he is rubbish, i dont think he should have been signed. Having said that i reckon he could be a great acquisition for us.
    If at first you don't succeed, redefine success.
