Yeah that's pretty much what I've been hearing......

Apparently on Tuesday evening we ONLY had 5 signed & received by the FAI, with the deadline being close of business wednesday. Forms received had to have Wednesdays post date or earlier. Matthews got the remaining players signed, and the forms sent off. For once it seems the FAI were efficient and processed our forms quickly otherwise we would not have had a team.

Also from a reliable source, Matthews and Callaghan were going to leave the club along with as many as 8 players (including some signed by Lawlor) were going to leave the club because of Lawlor.

Also heard some interesting info with regard to Sheridan...... I think we could've all been very harsh on him, and the fault for him training with Rovers could also be laid elsewhere.......

I've also heard some other stuff that I can't say, but they seem to back the committee's decision. All in all, it seems Lawlor had the vision, but simply wasn't competent enough in terms of management to carry it through......
