He's moved to Sligo, didn't hang about.
He's gone to Sligo Rovers now and left Glenavon.
i think we can put that down down to Thomas Turnball & Reid not sorting anything out yet. Especially George as a fee would be involved. Shame that

Well it turns out he WAS offered a contract, so your assumptions were completely wrong!Because he clearly wasn't, no matter what the reason is (and one can speculate if they wish), Mark Robins didn't feel giving him a contract was something that would have benefitted us, i.e not worthy of a contract.
But Glenavon said it was a free, then when he was offered a contract they said hang on we now want a fee! Hence we miss outDoubt that. Thomas is gone. This guy would have been on a very low deal.

Unless we didn't want to?Sligo Rovers average home attendance is around 2000. I wonder how they could afford Moorhouse and we couldn't?
Registered just to confirm that this is definitely what happened. Coventry weren't happy Glenavon went back on their word and wouldn't have paid even £100 for him.Unless we didn't want to?
It's only until November? He will be a free agent then so if still interested could come over on a low wage.Registered just to confirm that this is definitely what happened. Coventry weren't happy Glenavon went back on their word and wouldn't have paid even £100 for him.
There's no way we paid more than €5k IMO. Money is tight as it is at every LOI club not playing in Europe. I can count on one hand the number of transfer fees we have paid in my lifetime.
Bit surprised we only signed him until November. There's only 10 league games left over here.
Good luck this season lads.

What's your average wage over there?
Is your season over the summer?
Wouldn't mind that season, you miss out all the bad weatherWe play March - November over here. The majority of teams are part time. We're one of the few full time teams although a lot of our performances this season would suggest otherwise..
Our weekly wage budget was around the €20k mark to start the season so Moorhouse is probably on €500 - €700 per week if I were to guess. We were desperate enough to pay a fee for potentially just 10 games from him though so it could be more than that.

Are you pushing to win something or stay up?
It will be worth the money if he comes in and helps keep you up, it will help him because he could potentially get a move based off that.Stay up. We are currently 10th in a 12 team league with 3 teams going down this season.
Summer seasons are nice but I do miss the winter games when I'm watching football on TV at Christmas. We switched to Summer in 2003. It has helped our clubs in Europe too since we often go up against teams still in pre-season.

the Irish season has finished, he isn't in the list who have re-signed either so far and isn't on their site:
Sligo Rovers FC First Team | Sligo Rovers Football Club
Callan-McFadden and McCabe among eight signed up | Sligo Rovers Football Club
Saying that, I don't think he did too much for them.
Does this mean we could sign him asap, if we want to?
I think because its international then he can sign today if Robins wants him. I'd go for it, he sounded good pre season and could provide the pace we need on the other side to Jones needed to open up some sticky defences.I am not sure on how it works, as he has played for another club after our window has closed and then become a free agent. Then again it's Ireland, so no idea
10 apeparances 0 goals for sligo
just what we need!!
Funny that, he was another cracker we'd missed out on who would guarantee us a hatful of goals according to the experts here
