This is official folks.

Felix was sacked this evening around 9.30 after a meeting of the Directors of the club.

It is expected that Harps midfielder Anthony Gorman will be offered the job.

I suppose given recent events this was sort of inevitable as it was apparent that he'd lost a lot of backers and as a result on-field performances weren't good enough.

Thanks for the memories Felix and good luck.

WAHOO! I told ye in the "Manager Sackings" thread that Healy might be the next to go!

btw, The Wahoo is for me being right for once and not the fact that Healy was sacked.

Never. There's no pie-shop in Ballybofey, and the club refused to fund regular trips to 'The Open Oven' in Derry for him to stock-up on sausage rolls...... :p

Not a hope in hell!!

We wouldn't be able to pay him for starters. I would imagine that some of the senior squad members like Declan Boyle or Anthony Gorman will take over

Isn't Dolan a shareholder, or something like that, in Harps?

He's definitely a shareholder in the Dundalk co-op.
Might have done something similar to Harps to help them out.
Is he a member of the 400 Club?

Dolan has connections in Donegal with family etc and was probably up visiting them. He is a regular to Finn Park though when he is here and is also a shareholder.

There is no way we could afford Pat though, complete non-runner.

Gorman or Boyle will steady the ship until a suitable replacement can be found.

I couldn't be happier. I never liked him, he's too smug.

And more trouble for Harps (on the pitch) is good news for us.

When is Dolan going to take over ??

He can't as he never played for Sligo Rovers , usually a pre-requisite for the harps job.

Can't see how it will be good news for anyone but Harps to be honest.

These developments will actually keep us up.

.....I would say it would be good if you got Fat Dolan. :eek: But like Vinny said Gorman would be good or another experienced player. Chris Coleman....Cwmbran Love :D

Apparently he was looking for 1,100 per week when he applied for Town job

I can never quite figure out what's the right thing to do. A manager gets a team promoted to the top flight. The said team cannot adapt to the new level and the same manager who less than a year ago lead a promotion charge is sacked for being unable to keep a team up. Do you blame the manager or the gulf in class? Perhaps considering how Bray and UCD are doing he has let Harps down.

Definitly a tough job but personally I never liked him, he always seemed to be moaning and giving out. His demenor remindss me of Liam Murphy in a way... boring!

This is a fact.
I saw Don O'Riordon in Ballybofey 2 weeks ago.
To add fuel to fire,a reliable source within the Finn Harps Commitee told a friend of mine that Don was in talks with Harps before Healy got the sack,but O'Riordon said he will wait until the end of the season until he takes charge, if the position is still available.

This is total and 100% unadulterated bullsh!t mate.

Sorry to burst your bubble but there is no way DOR will be coming to Finn Park and absolute crap that he was in talks with Harps two weeks ago.

As for being in Ballybofey..............so was Dana last week. Doesn't mean she is going to be working in McElhinneys.

Well at least I caught one person out with it.
God,how could anyone think O'Riordon would get a managerial job again...especially a Sligo fan.
