Signs on loan for Charlton for the season. Interesting that they say in the press release that he's thought to be the record holder in terms of highest transfer fee paid to a League of Ireland club. Anyone know how much Pat's got for him, more than the million Rovers got for Bazunu? |
Various sources list it as €400,000 so not sure how it's the highest (for an outfield player maybe?).
Anyway Charlton will be an interesting team to keep an eye on now with Loiue Watson also confirmed on loan from Luton. Think they have some young Irish qualified striker who seems promising also, think somebody said he was from a traveller background (no idea if true or a poor attempt at a joke) |
Patrick Casey, he is from a Traveller background. Not sure if he'd be the first Traveller to play for Ireland if he makes it, I seem to remember hearing Aiden O'Brien was also of Traveller heritage, but not entirely sure if that's accurate. | I don't think O'Brien does, but John-Joe O'Toole definitely has a traveler background

Cant remember her name off hand but theres a girl off the womens team with a traveler background too.

Yeah, Savannah McCarthy.

Don’t think O’Brien is, remember people commenting about his appearance saying he looked like one

That's fair, but his pace and athleticism really impressed me in the recent U19 games, he can really drive forward with the ball - might be better utilised as a full/wing back in the future. Also, despite being a powerful unit, he's only just 6ft.

Roughan mostly played LWB with a couple starts at LB if transfermarkt is correct. Lincoln do play 3-4-3 and if transfermarkt is correct he'd 19 games at LWB, 8 at LB, and 6 at CB. Few games where a position wasn't listed as he came on as a sub.

Interesting, I made the point in the U21 thread that they could move to 5 at the back to mirror the senior team - playing Abankwah at RCB would facilitate that. Ebosele was playing at RWB for Udinese while Furlong was playing LWB for Motherwell in a 5 also, not sure if Roughan was playing as a LB in a 4 or as a LWB in a 5 - I know he's played LCB also. Adaramola could likely play LWB also.
