Might as well throw Terry Butcher's name in to the mix of former SPL managers to have had the job or are linked to it. Kenny wasnt given enough time at Rovers in most peoples opinion especially as it seemed at the time that he was being undermined by some players. As a reaction to that arguably premature sacking conversely Croly was given too much time as odd decisions/tactics/signings/team selection or whatever persisted. To the point where all bar Rovers fans were thoroughly enjoying the Tallaght dramas (not an obsession but almost compulsory car crash type viewing). Players being loaned out with a very good possibility that the umpteenth last throw of the dice signing was going to be inferior - and for significant outlay; Marquee signings like Quigley and Zayed no longer at Tallaght, an exceptional squad looking paper thin... Even the whole Rovers B and the 'incredible' amount of work that TC supposedly gave there but them going 9 or 10 games without even scoring, and to think so many of us were upset by the advantage Rovers B could be. Unless TC really has put in place structures that will one day reap benefits the current Board of S Rovers will be seen as those who squandered what should really be a period of fairly sustained domination of the league. Instead since M'ON its been a bit of a giggle. Sooo a massive decision for the Rovers suits now and one they cant really afford to get wrong or give too much time to, or sack to early, or give such enthusiatic post match interviews or do most of any of what TC did actually. Fenlon would be the safest choice in theory for stability and competativeness if not in a very fancy way. Anyone else, unless an outstanding candidate from outside the league, is on a hiding to nothing! Bet Louis Van Gaal is kicking himself for taking the Old Trafford job so quickly now!
