    think, but i'm not sure, but it's something to do with Phil Harrington/Harrington's Confectioners..

    Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?

    Anyone know of James O'Donovan? He played for the U-21's against Kerry on 25th June. Is he up to it? Is he even registered???

    I reckon we HAVE to loan someone. Even a premiership reserve who might want some games. As a part-time Hammers fan, I know they have 4 keepers who would be suitable (Roy Carroll, Stephen Bywater, Russell Hoult and Jimmy Walker). Surely most other premiership teams have some suitable reserves who they would like to get some European experience. Obviously any teams in Europe won't though coz they'd be cup tied.

    By the way, if someone played for us in UEFA cup, would they be cup tied for Champions League???

    he's called biscuits because of his love for club milks at half time..thats where the name came from..

    What about raiding Ramblers for Anthony Fennelly? I think he has been released and could do a job?

    You must be joking. Don't think we'll be using a UCC keeper for Uefa Cup.

    Seems Devine could be out forf 1 month. A keeper would need shoulder more than outfield player. McNulty is supposed to out for 2-3 more weeks.

    Does anyone know if we allowed to register another keeper for Uefa Cup - i suppose we can get dispensation when no fit players?

    We could probablt cope with Biscuits for couple of weeks if had to but we have a lot of games in short space of time & 2 weeks is not enough.

    So you're dismissing him because of the team he plays for.

    He was on the Irish junior team that was in Poland last week. I think hes good enough.

    I wonder could we loan a Glentoran keeper if/when they get knocked out of the CL? I suppose he would have work committments though.

    If someone is called biscuits its because they crumble under pressure. Or say some is called jigsaw - they fall to pieces in the box.

    Note: I didn't invent these, I am only explained a common version of the said nicknames so I'm not trolling...

    Put them in a box with Fragile on them so we'll know, ok lads.

    Im actually not that sure how important it is to get another keeper, except for the bench.
    Theres not a lot of teams that have actually had many shots on target against us this year! Can anyone think of a few good saves that Devine has had to make? Prob only 4 or 5 all season!
    I remember when Mooney got injured about 6 years ago and biscuits came into the team in his mid 30's after being on the bench/coach for ages and he did fine. Biscuits for ledgend!

    Mark McNulty is injured and we just released the other keeper.

    i blame this on my girlfriend. she said as soon as biscuits was signed up "watch now devine will get injured". devil woman.

    I see Tony O'Dowd is still at Drogs but is only 3rd choice behind O'Connor & Rogers.

    Would Drogs want to release him to a rival club?

    Think there's a young fella from Douglas keeping for Birmingham or someone.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
