Info on Healy <h1 class="firstHeading">Colin Healy</h1><div id="bodyContent"><h3 id="siteSub">From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia</h3><div id="contentSub"></div><div id="jump-to-nav">Jump to: navigation, search</div> Colin Healy (born March 14, 1980 in Cork) is an international footballer for the Republic of Ireland currently playing for Scottish Premier League club Livingston.</p> Born in Ballincollig in County Cork, he played local football with Wilton United. He attended the FAS/FAI football course in Cork ran by former Celtic midfielder Mick Conroy and from here he was taken to Celtic Park.</p> Sunderland, signed him from Celtic in 2003.</p> This was not without considerable controversy. As Healy was 23 years old at the time, Sunderland were stunned when Celtic attempted to enforce Board rules which claimed that they needed to pay compensation for his move between clubs. According to FIFA rules, however, no compensation needed to be paid, as they needn't pay compensation on any players 23 or over. FIFA rules were the ones followed in this case.</p> He is currently in the midst of an injury crisis. He broke his leg in a match at Coventry City in December 2003. He had previously been on loan at Coventry. His bad luck continued when he broke his leg again whilst working towards a comeback.</p> In January 2006, it was announced that Healy's contract with Sunderland had expired, and the midfielder was to leave the club and return to Ireland to re-evaluate his future. He joined struggling SPL club Livingston on 10 March 2006 until the end of the season.</p></div>
RE: get him signed, get him signed now was a great prospect at Celtic. God knows how much those injuries have taken out of him though
Ipswich, Leicester and Stoke have been interested in him. Was on trial with Ipswich for a week and played for them against Boston. "Colin Healy, whose quality was apparent in his second-half stint, is another who is likely to be given at least another week, although Motherwell are keen on him and Magilton may have to make his mind up quickly." Although Ipswich decided not to take him on.
Well, we do need someone to keep the physio's busy now that Carbon has been put out to pasture, innit Could be a good player for us, if he's back owt like
RE: Well, think he would be a good signing try get him on 6 months see if he stays fit then sign him up for another 18 months
