I hope you don't get him because, quite frankly you don't deserve him. If Pat leave shels I would hope its for a club where the fans actually support a new manager not sack him before he even agrees to sign. Some bohs fans don't deserve success. I know lots of Bohs fans, and they genuinely are embarrassed by sections of their support and their behaviour.

Gareth, Fenlon has previous with Bohs where he treated us like crap, so you can hardly be surprised that some people don't like him. Also if he does walk out on you with 10 games to go, it shows excatly what type of person he is. Most Bohs fans will suppurt Fenlon or anyone else 100%, the difference is Fenlon has baggage. I agree chanting before he starts is silly but I think it was more a joke than anything else. Whats your hunch, stay or go?

When Fenlon leaves who will Shels get in? I would be surprised if allowed Eamo Collins to take control for the rest of the season.

Bohs fans are bitter towards Fenlon because of his spiteful squad-wrecking tactics, founded on seat of the pants financing at Shelbourne, and because of his pointless and unprofessional stance towards the club in the past. But if this mercenary comes to to Bohs and shows what he can do with real and solid resourcing, he will have the support of the fans.
My personal opinion is that we should be more ambitious in the long-term, but that he's the best available in Ireland just now.

Not to mention the little Bohs kids who turned up to a Shelbourne and Longford Town game on Friday night to chant during a minute�s silence for a Shelbourne fan.

I don't think they knew there was a minutes silence. It still came across disgusting though, "De Boez" heard echoing around the ground during a minutes silence, scum.

And yes, I believe I can call them scum. Who else other than scum would be outside oppositions ground chanting on the night their team were not participating? Respectable individuals?

a bit like Shels fans shouting during a minute's silence for Jackie Jameson in November 2002

Very amateurish from an official site. Even more so when we know there are Shels fans here who want him to go

The more i think of it Roddy Collins would be a good fit for Shels for the rest of the season.

Kids that chanted Bohs while we weren't even playing? :rolleyes: I think it's more like your own fans seeing the light.

Nutsy must have felt right at home.

Here's a radical thought for you, not new though as most clubs do it. Hire security to sort the issue out. Its not rocket science now is it, although that does involve money.

Kids did show up outside the ground and they did chant for Bohs and our security could do very little about it as it happened OUTSIDE the ground!

Dodge, referring to your comment that the splash screen was amateurish and suggesting that fans don't even want him to stay, that is pretty much totally the opposite. The fans on the Shels Forum have voted so far quite in favour of him remaining, as have the emails I have recieved. Regarding putting up the splash, amateur or not, it expressed the sentiments of the fans, and albeit an official site, I took a decision to put it up. Now we are back promoting the St Pats game. Which no doubt you'll be happier about. Eitherway, thanks for your comments regarding the site.

Outside the ground. Outside, as in not inside.

you mean you didnt know that the 2nd terminal will be because Bohs will require a terminal all of our own when we are in the Champions Legaue in a few years. The DAA obviously knew the new deal was in the pipeline and prepared accordingly.

so a few lads outside the ground make noise before a Shels game, wow big f**king deal.

Are you going to criticise Aer Lingus and Ryanair for allowing flights to take off and cause noise when we have a minute's silence in our new ground dedicted to the memory of Shelbourne FC?

Without commenting one way or the other on the splash, if Shels fans were to vote for a splash which said "F*ck off Gypos" or "6-0!", would you have done it?

Just because fans want something isn't of itself a basis for doing something.

It would be difficult for kids to know there was a minute silence if they were outside the ground. It would also be normal practise to place security or stewards outside the turnstiles and therefore, if there was something happening that shouldn't have been happening, they could sort it out.

There is a very clear and obvious difference between telling someone to F*** off and to put up a splash with a message of support to a manager. Cop on would dictate that your scenerio is a non-runner. So the answer is No to your question. But you knew that already.

very touchy on the whole Pat Fenlon subject Gareth.

About time some poaching went on in the opposite direction!

Not really poaching though when your manager sends us his CV though is it?

I never said they knew,i just said they showed up and chanted for Bohs,which happened to be during a minutes silence!

Other than tell them to shut up,what do you suggest they do. If they lay a finger on them,they would be charged with assault.

BohsFan, I'm not touchy, in fact if I was to have a conversation with you, you'd find I'm quite calm on the subject, but I do hope he stays. If that makes me touchy then fair enough but I would have had a different understanding of the word. Eitherway, I am eager to see we don't lose our manager.

Great post. Now Hel fans stop whinging

Meanwhile back at the ranch..........

Has anyone any insight as to what the major change in position was between RTE announcing that it was 99% certain Fenlon was taking the Bohs job at about 7.40pm on Friday night and stating that he would address the team and fans after the game and the fact nothing happened?

Was it just poor journalism or did something happen in the couple of hours?

Will Shels be taking action against RTE?

Just heard a rumour of Fenlon to Bohs,
Keely to Shels and Gill to follow him as assistant.

Those Gypo kids were kicked out at half time by the guards. Somehow a few of them managed to get back in :rolleyes: and sat in Section E. When they started to chant Gypo chants some aul' fella took the matter into his own hands and dragged one of them out by the scruff of the neck with some force :eek: .

Why do people give any respect to Fenlon and Kiely?

I remember Kiely at Harps and he was just a big moaner who couldn't manage his way out of a paper bag.

Fenlon has had the best first 11 and best squad in the league now for years and is still struggling to shake off Drogs and 2 other part time clucbs. Whats the big deal. Its behond me.

The 2 best managers in league are Stephen Kenny and Sean Connor followed closely by Damien Richardson. It doesn't surprise me that Bohs are after a useless manager such as Fenlon since they sacked the best manager the league has ever seen in Stephen Kenny. Shows you what a clue they have. Time to wise up. Shels should have sacked Fenlon ages ago, Bohs should go for Connor of Sligo or someone abroad who has the contacts to bring in the right players and Kiely should be given the managers job at some women's team like they did with that useless arse Noel Talks*it King :mad:
