Question for IEL, are our respective Rovers in danger of getting our eyes wiped by Dundalk and Pats and maybe even Cork if we don’t get our act together in the transfer market?

Very much so, we have to get a replacement for Richie Ryan in and hope too that Croly has learnt from last season. If not I really cant see him lasting too long , especially with Mr Fenlon still out of a job.
Looks like we may be getting Zayed off the books too, which is good.
Russell and Ledwith should be decent enough signings for you but not as good as whats left you.

Agreed on all counts. Think we’re about three short right now especially with Pats having added Quigley and Fahey. Elding, Dennehy and Rafter are all good catches for Cork and I have a lot of respect for Caulfield who I think will make a terrific manager. Why’s no-one signing Bradley?
