So yet again it looks like we wont have any money to spend on players and will have to rely on the youth coming through which i dont mind but hope that i will be able to afford peoples wages soon as at the moment we struggle with contract renewals and thats why good players are leaving on frees.
Im guessing its because im only semi - pro but i cant offer more than a 3 year deal and most people only want 1 year deals so if you have the money you can pick up anyone both of Sligo Rovers top goalscorers Shehphard and North were available on frees at the end of the season.
Transfer history
View attachment 473733
As you can see we only bring 2 players into the club as im going to rely on a few youngsters moaning about lack of game time and see if they can walk the walk.
At the top of the list you can see O Donnell and Joe Gamble who both played over 15 games for us last season but wanted silly money for players over 30, O Donnell wanted £1,400!
Then at the bottom i let Shane Robinson go as his stats deteriorated quickly last season after a good year before and he asked to have his contract terminated and after asking for double his money the year before, this success is killing us!
Right lets look at the two players who came in.
Aaron Lawlor CM
View attachment 473732
I like the look of this guy and signed him on a pre contract without realising he would cost me so much money! I reckon he will have a good debut season and make the starting 11 next year.
Tom Mulroney DR/ CM
View attachment 473731
Hes not amazing but he didnt want much in terms of wages and can play 2 positions and is comfortable at DC too so was more to plug the gap were so many players left.
Right so youth players to watch out for this season

Tobin has done amazingly well since coming in for the injured *** and has grabbed 7 goals already this season with 6 in the league to have him sitting at the top of the goalscoring charts.

First off we lose the All Ireland Cup Final!
View attachment 473373
3 goals in 9 minutes for Shamrock Rovers destroyed my more deserving side as they continue their incredible start and our young threadbare squad shows its fatigue. If we get professional status in the next year or two it will mean full time training and make such a difference.

13 points from a possible 15 is not bad going in the league with the only blip a bore draw with our fierce rivals and bogey team Cork City.

1 point behind and Shamrock Rovers have a game in hand! This looks like the biggest threat to the league for us in 2 seasons, i think losing so many key players due to funding has heart the squad overall.
