Local media reporting that P Jennings Jnr has been given permission to speak to Sligo.
i dont think there is any need for a full time sub keeper
Jennings is as dodgy as feck! Better off with Brush.
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
And we didnt give him a good time on a number of occasions
RIP JOHNNY
Derry only conceded 31 goals last season as opposed to our 45. Derry would have finished way above us but there problem was scoring goals. Jennings had alot of clean sheets if memory serves me correctly. Good shot stopper but poor kicker. I think there is only a toss of a coin between him and brush. Good competition for eachother which can only improve the team. Would be a good signing imo and let them battle it out for the number 1 spot!!!
well why not look for a better keeper than Brush and Jennings? Jennings is dodgy and no better than our Dick.
Signing Jenningsis a step in the wrong direction he is not a move forward. He is being let go by Derry for a reason he is hopeless & it augers badly for the Cookie monster if he cannot source a better keeper.
brush is one of the best shot-stoppers around without a doubt.
however his kicking and distribution is poor especially with ball in hand.
with a goalkeeping coach, he could be brillant.
i know john o hara had a private coach
i dont know why people are being critical of brush,he was very good last season after stepping up when o'hara left.
he is an excellent shot stopper,his only major fault i think is his positioning,you dont really notice it when you are at the match,but looking at the highlights you can see he makes bad decisions when the opposition is attacking,he comes out of his goal when he shouldnt and that costs us goals.
that being said he will have no problem holding down his position if jennings signs,like it has been said,theirs no need for a full time sub keeper.
I dont rate Jennings very highly and i would assume his wages would be fairly high compared to a part time Keeper we should be trying to strengthen in positions were we are going to struggle imo thats the centre of the park. Although we only have one keeper we really need to strengthen the spine of the team.
we would have dropped alot more points if brush wasnt there last season aswell though. id be happy with him as our number 1 this season, imo jennings would be fine as back up only
Jennings would be good back up but is worth paying a player a considerable amouth of money week in week out to sit on the bench week in week out.
a plus side though of having a full time 2nd choice keeper is that the first choice one would have a goalkeeper to train with, cant see us appointing a full time goalkeeping coach like......
Keeps Brushy on his toes, good back up.
The PFAI have issued a list of unattached players looking for a club and Steve Williams is on it. Would have thought he would be an ideal second choice keeper
I think Williams has joined Sporting Fingal
jennings
the deal is if we sign jennings we will also get his dad to help in the coaching end of things from time to time.

It's the Monster,
The Cookie Monster!
According to Cook himself, Rovers will only sign him on loan and let Derry pay his wages
Even if on loan, it is a bad move - Cookie has said quality not quantity is what he wants in squad
