cronins a legend. spent half the match last week talkin to us behind the dugout:)

just think of the list of managers that are better than gill. mahon, matthews, kenny keely etc. nutsy really has lost it if he thinks gill can help him and the u-23's

I don't suppose any of those would be particularly keen to take time out from their lucrative day-jobs to play second fiddle to Nutsy.

Seriously, can you imagine Keely let loose on the cream of the league's young talent? They'd all have turned into balding centre-halves smoking forty a day before the week was out.

Mahon was involved in this last year. Not sure why he's not this time, maybe has better things to do.

Giller has made the play offs in both seasons he`s been with Dundalk, missing winnning the lge title by one point in 2006, I think he deserves a bit of credit.

Im not being personal but im not sure if you read the posts and fully understand what happened 2 years ago that it was at the clubs insistence,(all clubs in the eircom league),at the AGM of the league, that the play off went ahead as it was seen as a good end of season money spinner to the clubs involved.All clubs new at the time that the play off did not guarentee promotion or relagation but it merely gave additional ranking points.
For what its worth,and im no gill fan,but it seems like he is doing a good job up there....pity the season is played over 36 games though!!!:D

Has to be one of the worst managers in the first division, total BS artist whose team have played with a massive advantage of a plastic pitch for coming into it's third full season and they're still stuck in the first division. And now he is managing a national side! Why what has he done? What will the Players that play under good managers learn from this character? Nothing, zero is my guess, FAI hang your head in shame.

Is this the third or fourth season of the plastic pitch?

Surely at this stage any advantage of the pitch has considerably reduced as most players will have played on it by now

I think if Dundalk blow the first division title/promotion again like last season his reign as their manager would be called into question.

Getting 3-1 tonight this guy is a joker and as soon as people start kopping on to this absolute sham the better espicially the poor tortured souls in Dundalk. The web staff at the club will be in for another hard day.

Battle of the so called heavyweights in the first division its clear now Dundak will throw away that lead,when playing in Cobh-Shels always looked more organised anyway good luck to them hope they win it if anything it"ll give City someone else to dispise...

Gill is a legend and deserves recognition from what he has achieved and were he has brought us..when he took over we wer just about mid table an now were challenging every year not too mention he did technically get us promoted in his first season in charge only for us to be robed!!!

ined, but does this make him no.2 behind fenlon in the list of best managers, no. Also hendo ,from our point of view, has done better than gill, with not even 1/5 of the resources, when we were reading yere programme last year we realised that ye nearly had more off field staff than we did bloody players

I think we are starting to see this already , the wheels seem to be failing off and the sense of de ja vu is surrounding us again

I reckon about 90% of dundalk fans are starting to question him now to be honest.
