According to KK in todays Connacht Tribune. Hopefully he will stay which would be a massive boost to the season ticket campaign and would peruade some of our current squad to resign.
If he leaves it will be a huge blow to the club and a replacement should be someone with a high profile from outside the club rather than Billy or Lal.This appointment should be made as soon as possible.
Also says Rovers are still interviewing for the job there, so hopefully it won't be him.
I donn't think Jeff will be our manager come Tuesday :(
Jeff won't be Rovers manager. Apparently he's applied for Dundalk too but priced himself out of that.
I hope he stays but it seems that he will only stay if he doesn't find any other option. Fair enough I guess because it's not as if he's going to have much cash to strengthen the side as I'm sure he wishes.
Who knows where he will go? He's done well for himself in turning things around, and won't be short of offers. I'm sure he'd rather a Dublin job and Rovers does stick out like a sore thumb.
Jeff Kenna has been offered the Dundalk job and he's got the weekend to think about it. Announcement on Monday.Quote:

A local paper saying Jeff is being allowed a further 2 weeks to decide his future.Shams and Dundalk wont wait that long so id say by the time he does decide those postitions will be have been filled and he will stay with us then.

It's Sean Connor - was announced on the Dundalk website about two hours ago.Quote:

GUFC seems to be the fallback option basically?
with our envisaged budget next season it can hardly be any more than that.
Just hope it gets sorted quickly and doesn't start dragging on into January. Other clubs are already making moves with comings and goings but there's not much that can be done at United when nobody knows who the manager is going to be for next season. If we have to get someone new in that will take a few weeks probably putting us further behind the other clubs at this early stage.
At the moment it seems to be Kenna saying I'll come back if I don't get anything better but some kind of time limit has to be put on it.
According to Setanta, he's in the running for the Oxford United job. One thing I can gather from everything that is going on, is that Kenna is actively looking for work elsewhere.

Time to say 'thanks Jeff but good luck, we want someone who wants to be here rather than using the club as a safety net'.
