Any rumours of players coming in? It's all gone a bit quiet recently. Keating would have been a good signing, he's signing for Pats from Cork.

Pats have signed Cork's striker.

Adding a few decent players by the looks of things.

This account is linking us to Rory Brown (GK) from Glenavon. Long term replacement for Maher?

Everything really quiet regarding rumours. I hear we are still trying to get Hoban even though Dundalk won't let him go for free now as the new owners have a few quid.

If we are after Brown it's obvious that Maher will be away to England - need to be a good fee we are getting if so.

Was a big advocate of Diallo tbh but Higgs must build in to this contract that the madness of his on field behaviour must end now Inreckon he cost up a huge 9 with his fouls , pens, sendings off etc See the same at one or two Premier Clubs in England Crazy players costing their club He must be reined in NOW

Is he any good ? Haven't Glenavon released him, which wouldn't be a good sign?

Hard to get excited about a new reserve keeper.

It's news of a good quality forward we need.

On the subject of the new keeper, if he does sign will that mean Tagdh Ryan will be leaving?

Great move for him.

Hope he does well and gets lots of game time.

Could be a great player in a few years time.

Because we have Harkin, Diallo, Patching, O’Reilly, Dummigan, Fats, McMullan, Kelly and Duffy for the positions he could play. And that’s being generous ……good as young McLaughlin is, he wasn’t getting in before any of these.

Half or more of those players are not competing with Evan for a place in the team. Nevertheless, the best thing for him now is game time. Not sat on a bench watching games or getting 15 minutes every fortnight.

At his age and ability he's got it all ahead of him and could return to be a first team regular in the future. All young players will struggle at top teams for the same reasons.
