    Wonder who'll be next to give him a shot. Have to imagine it will be another First Divison outfit, where he has a track record of success over the last few years. But in the Premier Division his record is appalling post-Bohs. How does he keep getting work?

    It's official.

    Derry have released a statement saying it was by mutual consent.

    It's rumoured that the Derry board will look to Mick Cooke to bring an attacking and adventurist style of play to the Brandywell.

    No surprise really with the way Derry have been playing. His rant after the game on Friday just summed it up.

    He could be just the man to keep the Drogs up. I understand the fans have been on his back, but at face value it seems a hasty sacking.
    They are hardly struggling.

    The definition of "struggling" is different in Derry and Drogheda.

    Relief is my main emotion.

    Highlight of the season.

    I thought his signings were pretty good to be honest. Byrne is an experienced player and Stewart is a real handful who tore Luke Byrne apart on the opening day. The problem was no matter how good the signings, they still have to play under Roderick.

    should have stayed at Athlone and try to build things over a five year period starting with a remit of staying in the top flight. Instead he thought he was more worthy of a bigger job

    Didn't Athlone get rid of him because he wanted a huge budget increase?

    In that case, staying at Athlone wasn't an option.

    It's not like you to refer to drogheda in a post.

    Brings up up an interesting point though; what are the expectations in Derry? It's been 17 years since they won the league. Did they expect to challenge with Roddy in charge? Seems a hasty sacking but maybe the performances were just so bad that there was no prospect of improvement in the future.
