They've announced the signing of St Patrick's Athletic striker Ronan Coughlan ahead of the new season.

The Blues have also confirmed the addition of left-back Ryan Burke from Bohemians.

He added, "We missed out on a few that we would really like to have gotten in, there's a couple of positions that we didn't get the A player we really wanted. I'll be honest though, with the next level that came in, we are delighted with that as well. The squad needs to be stronger this year and we've had some really strong players come in."

The campaign starts this Friday in Ferrycarrig Park, with Live commentary on WLR thanks to McConnells Toyota Waterford.
