Cobh Ramblers boss Dave Hill will stay on until the end of the season after rumours that he would be replaced as manager of the club at Wednesday night’s Annual General Meeting proved unfounded.
The Englishman, who played for both Bohemians and Cork City before taking over the reins of Cobh a year ago, was deemed to be under pressure for his position after a disappointing start to the First Division season by his side.
Cobh reached the promotion play-offs last season, going down to eventual winners Drogheda United at the semi-final stage.
That relative success led to increased expectations at St Colman’s Park this season, particularly when they managed to hold onto top scorer Willie Bruton, who had been extensively linked with a move to Cork City in the close-season.
Yet Ramblers have netted just six goals in eleven games this season, and currently languish in ninth place in the First Division table.
Speculation circulating earlier in the week suggested that George Mellerick – who has managed Ramblers in the past – would replace Hill, but that failed to materialize at Wednesday’s meeting.
However, Ramblers’ most recent performance - a 1-0 victory over First Division leaders Finn Harps last weekend - may well have saved Hill’s bacon for the time being at least.
At the AGM, John O’Sullivan was elected Chairman as successor to the outgoing Liam Amphlett.
