Which boss do Bohs fans want next?

[Spudulika]

CRE - I'm sure the club would gladly let him go, regardless of compensation, it's the fact that he (from reports above) is owed a whack of money that the club either don't want or can't pay him. I agree in getting rid of the drama, the club has enough to be getting on with.

Bohs' arrogant demands in negotiations with Dundee United look even more ridiculous now. It's hurt Nutsy's career and placed an even greater financial burden on the club. Lose-lose.

Charlie, I was wondering about that, and not knowing what we do about what is owed to the man, maybe they were looking for the "compensation" to cover what they owe him? Just a thought? I saw it done in relation to a player loan where he was owed a few grand in back wages and his loan fee would cover it.

Bohs fans would know the figures better than I do, but Google tells me they were looking for almost 300k in compensation, which tallies with my memory. From my recollection, Nutsy claimed he was owed about 100k in unpaid bonuses and had mooted the possibility of using it to void his contract. I don't know what Dundee United were offering, but presumably it was a long way short of Bohs' demands so they went off and got a cheaper manager.

Everyone can understand wanting to get the best compensation possible, but it would appear that Bohs came out with the worst outcome possible: they got no compensation, they had to magic up the money to settle with Nutsy and they kept him on a lucrative contract that they were already in arrears on. As far as faux pas go, this one was fairly mighty. And now that they'd like to get him off the books, he's making sure he gets everything he's owed. More power to him.

Fenlon in the paper today saying that Bohs players have to use bar stools for training........At least they are sticking to what they know.

Is Gormley still available? he is used to working on a small budget.
Used to it, but not good at it. He really struggled last year when we had to cut back drastically and the season before we had to make some cuts which he struggled to deal with. When he had money to work with, admittedly nothing near what Bohs had at their peak, he did well.

He's a good coach but as a manager, he still needs to get used to it.

Have all the toys been picked up and put back in the pram yet?

No, Lego and scalextric were picked up but subbuteo and snakes and ladders still on floor :( or in english, matters have not been finalised yet. Most Bohs fans lost interest in the whole thing. Great if he stays but if not we move on.

my personal preference is that he is fooked out on his overgrown elvish ears.

Doesn't look like Fenlon is going now but if he does go, I'd like Pat Doolin to take charge.

[Longfordian]

Pat Doolin? A mixture of Pat Dolan and Paul Doolin. What a marvellous cocktail that would be.

Presumably he'd eat everything in the fridge and then complain about it.

Sounds like 4 of my ex girlfriends

Wonder if he'll attract the attention of any other made up jobs in the near future?

It was a typo. I knew straight away when I made that typo but couldn't edit because as a newbie my posts are up for moderation.
