    Gartland Gone

    According to a post on the drogs message board.
    If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.

    Yep he's gone alright, off to Drogland, $$ signs in his eyes, we'll cope without him. Especially if we can bring in another good defender we have supposedly lined up

    Fair enough, may as well say we're in talks with two Drogs players and there's a pretty good chance of getting them apparently..one used to play not too far away and it looks likely he'll be with us next year, barring a u-turn.

    Unhappy Good luck Garto

    Shame to see Garto gone. Wish him all the best in Drogland. He'll need it! He was developing into a top player with us. Wouldn't mind seeing 'Athlone Reject' Anthony Myler up front for us though . Could do a decent job. Coming to Longford would be a major step up for him.

    Garto gone? And he's taken all Section O's sponsorship cash with him and all and gone to Dwogs! Seriously, im gutted he's gone, a character and an excellent player. We'll definitely miss him. Best of luck Garto.... just think of all the trophies your leaving behind....

    Heard some more on Garto's departure today, it would seem he's going around telling people (Journos in particular) porkies about how he wasn't offered a proper contract by Longford, and how much he would have loved to have stayed but the club weren't treating him well, so I was asked to put forward the club's side of the story..Garto was negotiating a new contract with Alan, he asked for x amount per week which Alan felt was on the high side, but having thought about it decided he wanted to keep Garto so agreed to give him slightly more even than he had originally demanded. Bear in mind, he was already on decent money for a relatively unknown 21 year old defender.

    Garto then went to Drogheda and used this figure to negotiate a better offer for himself and then returned and said to Alan, I now want x+50 or whatever, another good jump..Basically the club and Alan felt he showed no loyalty to the manager and club who rescued his career from being stuck getting €50 a week in Pats' U21s and took him to Europe even though he was injured to give him experience, the only injured player to be brought and stuck with him and developed him, and they feel that their side of the story should be given to the fans, but don't want to conduct their affairs through the national media.

    All in all he's let a lot of people down. On a brighter note we're pretty close to signing two new players in the next day or so apparently..

    It's true alright, I'd been hearing things to that effect before he signed for Drogs, the praise he was getting was going to his head, he was making a lot of demands for someone who hadn't done an awful lot in the game.
