Make no bones about it, these players are being signed to win now. Coming in on big wages on short deals. We're going for the league this year... Whether it works out remains to be seen.

Still think we are short at centre half. If TL plays two up front are we short a striker if Hoban goes or will Patton get a chance?

He's a player co-ordinator
He isn't listed on the Ballymena Utd website as a player. Seems strange for neither club to comment on this as he is clearly back working at Derry.

Its a banter page & I use the word banter loosely. You'll find that at several points throughout the season the same page will refer to us as Londonderry or post something about us on the 12th July

Utter madness that he was signed in the first place, then given a 1.5 yr contract and then sat about watching from the sidelines as an unused sub.

I can only presume that deal was sanctioned by our last manager?

Hopefully, when Higgins returns to the game with his next project he'll snap up this exciting prospect.
