    Well pleased with this, although I thought he`d go to Everton.

    great bit of business , I wonder how the club was sold to the boy not that I'm complaining what ever it was, money wasn't the driving factor

    I think this was a player Buck ( both being irish ) kept under the radar & was going to bring to whatever club he landed at , just an opinion , based off nothing .

    From what I understand it was the Buck factor, squad spirit and the fact that there are no ego's at the club! Buck must have been pretty persuasive to have beaten the Mersey siders to get Rory on side - just another reason to thank the Lord we have him as a manager!

    Great news. Already seen a couple of scousers writing him off, saying he "didn't fancy his chances up against internationals" and other things to that effect...

    Nothing to do with the fact that both are clubs who have a track record of buying foreigners? Liverpool have changed that a little bit, but they're not going to drop a 20mil player for a 200k one...

    he would have been in the background with the scousers and with us he will get his chance next season if he comes through a tough training programme to turn him from a part time player to a full time professional. He should have no problem and im excited at him joining the lads, It will also give danny and the rest of the strikers something to think about and hopefully keep them on their toes....
