Quotesuppose he never endeared himself to ye after givin ya the finger earlier in the season.. he has never developed as much as he would like since he joined drogs..
Heard that Leech has signed for Shamrock Rovers. One goal in 16 league games says it all, another poor Cousins signing, won't accept arguments that he tried and all that crap becausde the number of headers he ducked out of was reprehensible, and his job was to score goals. Not one goal, but goalS. Yes, we are down to 2 fit strikers, but both have found the net this season on a fraction of the game time Leech had, so thanks for nothing Tony's Cousin, now on yer bike

Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
I assume this will free up the space to let Jeff and Fozzie sign, Fozzie could be better so i'm not too disappointed, he'll only have to score two to have a better season!!
There's the right way, the wrong way.... and the Max Power way!! :-D

I think we'll miss him. Hope I'm wrong...
How will we miss a striker with such a bad record?? Because there'll be no one left to hurl abuse at is about the only reason

Thanks, Woodquay Boy. The post-Sligo revisionism about Leech is bizarre.
Im afraid not Gilberto the hole is getting bigger.

I have said before that I have always liked Leech and nothing will change my mind on that . He reads the game very well and the problem with him not scoring would be down to service I would say . Bring back Barry Moran
Molloy, Glynn, VInny, O'Shea and O'Brien have all lived off the same supply and have a better hit rate, hell, even Fitzy scored from open play with a shot against Shams.
Post SLigo, pre Sligo, poo Sligo, whatever you want to say, never rated Leech, one goal in 16 games means, for me, he is now challenging Neville Steedman as the WORST striker United ever had.

I always rated Leech. Didn't score, but held up the ball wele and looked like a good footballer. I think Kenna is a good manager and he must also have rated him as he always started in the league.
The abuse he got was unacceptable and there were some in teh crowd always on his back, but strangely would not give the same abuse to the defence that was conceding ridiculous goals in every game (not that I condone abusing any player).
Looked like a good footballer? Are you serious, that is the new criteria, looking like a footballer! Oh Lord.
And he never gave abuse to his defence as he just never communicated.
Just checked Shams official club site where they confirm they have signed him. Unsurprisingly, there is nothing on the United site about it

Waste of space, 1 goal in 16 games is a crap return. Bring back Ryan Lucas all is forgiven!

According to the Sun, Deegan to Brighton on trial or if he cant cut it there Shams look likely to sign him.
Deegan definetly wont cut it at brighton
i think leech is and soon to be was our best striker - if we were in the top half he would easily have had 10 goals
vinny and to lesser extent daisy are headless chickens most of the time running round after the ball
leech is technically our best striker - just had crap service - then fell out with the fans - then was under huge pressure - having little to no confidence with the bottom of the table team
like another poster above said - we should be slating our backs this season - for falling asleep goals in the first 5 mins - and DOB and JOS for not knowing/bothering to track back
then get on leechs back by all means for not scoring...
more water!
Rumours around Ballybofey is that one if not two of your squad on their way to Harps next week.
Which two?

Deegan? Why not Russler if they're interested in one of them. (I'm glad they're interested in Deegan instead though)
I actually think Leech can look quite useful in holding the ball up and laying it off for other people but he doesn't look like a striker who will score many goals. He's definitely not a poacher. More someone who likes to drop deep and link up play.
He would probably do alright in a team that could provide good service and if he was paired with a good penalty box striker. Not sure if Shams is that team though.
