    He scored a scrappy goal to knock us out of the F.A.I. Cup.

    That's great news. Is Daryl Robson included in that 6?

    only regi and Greg are on the list but the club will listen to offers for any of our players

    As for DOB I heard he was made a great offer by pats but he has a settled life in galway and turned down their offer

    Some of the muck going around about O'Brien is crazy - heard someone last night say he had signed for Dundalk ffs!
    Just to clarify, Wes, Daryl, Lester, O'Flynn, Banana and Foley all off transfer list.

    He gets it off the internet and believes every rumour he reads there and hears around town is fact without checking it out.He is a good young supporter but he does my head in with some some of his posts.

    I never said it was fact. I said I heard from a fellow supporter on Friday. It was just speculation I know.

    AFAIK Derek is not interested in moving to Pats despite being offered a much better contract than he could get here. Fair play to him, €25,000 was a ridiculously low fee to accept . The club should now put more effort into increasing income to help with the salary cap and let the players get on with the job at hand.

    Latest story doing the rounds is that the club are trying to bully Derek into going to Pats because they need the money - €25,000. The same amount of money they would raise by getting an extra 1,250 fans to attend Terryland between now and the end of the season. I smell a sack the board campaign a'coming......
