I think its between Gormely, Fenlon and Cousins, probably Cousins :)
I think that Pat Scully, Stephen Kenny, Stephen Henderson and Paul Hegarty are the best managers in the league and have proven themselves to be very good. I don't rate Fenlon, Cousins or McDonnell.
So who will the 2nd manager to be sacked. My money is on Gormely ;)

I would agree with you.

Well Cousins it is then. Who is next?, not Gormely I reckon unless he resigns himself.

Oh God. Hopefully the board aren't convinced of this as well or he'll be gone.

I don't see him doing that...the board will give a while they won't jump into anything

bray will never sack a manager, if eddie is to go he'l have to quit. but i cannot see this happening.
not shocked at all that cousins was first to go. rico or connor will get that job imo
Interesting that neither Rico nor Connor were on MNS tonight...

I reckon Alan Matthews will be the next to get the bullet... a bit controversial but I think its a major jump up for him no offence to him..

I think there is a bit of realism around Cork, some people not happy with the appointment initially but he's here now and things aren't looking as bad as people were forecasting.
V Drogs, i thought we played fairly well to be honest and if we had converted those two chances (which we really should have to be honest) then you wouldn't be able to shut City fans up today.
All we are short is goals, and we have the ability there so i'm not worried. Matthews came in to what people were describing as a depleted squad last year and made some good signings but he will need time to find his feet like any new manager. To call for his head without 15-20 games gone would be crazy and totally knee jerk reaction .... and i'm saying that in 15-20 games time we wont be having this conversation because we'll be well on the way by then.
H Derry City
A Cobh Ramblers
H UCD
A Galway United
Next four games are fairly handy for us. I think we'll beat Derry at home but if not our next three games are nothing we should be worried about to the point we'll sack out manager.
Alan Matthews, safe as houses
Hmm, not so easy those next four matches, eh? Now is your opinion of Matthews the same?

Yes. Im far from happy about the way things are going, but he was handed a 3 year contract.
Given the amount we had to pay Rico off, we wont be paying off another manager anytime soon

Yeah, that's the difference- Matthews at the start of a 3 year contract, and no chance of Cork being relegated. Cousins at the end of a 2.5 year contract, and every bloody chance of a return to the wastelands, so the club had to act, short term pay-off for a (hopefully) long-term stay in the top flight

Mattews has problems there. O'Callaghan is either not good enough or out of position. I think hes gone back a lot since going to England. I could see Cork with a 4-3-3 which would make a lot more sense with a midfield of Gamble, Healy and O'Callaghan and 3 strikers up front or Kearney in midfield and O'Callaghan used as a striker. I said after the Drogs match on Setanta that George played very poorly in that position but Mattews doesn't seem to have ironed out problems in the pre season.
