TehMastar!!11 Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 (edited) Stumbled across this while looking at Cork FC's team news before placing and probably losing a bet on them tonight. The Evening Echo a local paper in Cork has linked us and Tranmere with a midfielder by the name of George O'Callaghan. Has anyone heard anything about this? The link is to a pdf. copy of their back page (to the right of the screen) http://www.eecho.ie/ Edited July 1, 2008 by TehMastar!!11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspiral_Carpet Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 i remember vaguely about an irish lad being tracked some months back.. can't say if its the same one though.. I think that was Paddy McCourt who has recently signed for Celtic. Could be wrong though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafckev Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 From: http://www.clubfanzine.com/ipswich_town/v2...ws.php?id=11632 Elsewhere, former Blue George O’Callaghan is set to make a surprise swift return to English football with Tranmere Rovers, having only rejoined Cork City in January. Oldham Athletic and other League One sides are also believed to have expressed an interest in the midfielder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehMastar!!11 Posted July 1, 2008 Author Share Posted July 1, 2008 Apparently the Cork lot rate O'Callaghan pretty highly, although he didn't exactly set the world alight the last time he was in England. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nohairdontcare Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 My mate who is a football reporter in Dublin was telling me about George last night - he rates him fairly highly and reckons he could do a good job for us. He is very popular in Cork, he's a skinny enough lad but a powerful enough attacking midfielder. He's a bit of a jack-the-lad too and doesn't mind a pint or the occasional bet on the horses - overall, he would be a good signing for us. So says my mate anyway.
