Had little to work with? He signed all the players
Had little money, little time to prepare and little choice of players :rolleyes:
He had a full pre sesaon and the same choice everyone else had but decided on non league players but thank **** hes gone anyway
Kerley had to build a completely new team on a shoestring budget.
Hes crap end of
have waterford united got no Forum of their own that they can rant on about, p*ss off, were not intertested in your handbags at dawn session on this forum
Ya you've got your own to organise :rolleyes:Quote:

bottom line no one knows how this season is going to go till we see some short of a finalised team and until we see a few matches played at least. mike kerley might be lucky and have a great season or might be unlucky and have a bad one.....no one can call it yet.

Could you please pi$$ off back to your own forum? You've been shown up by a fellow Waterford fan as knowing very little about Kerley's time there. We don't need the negativity here, we have plenty of our own.Quote:

had 5k plus bonus,s etc in prem......no need for those bonus,s ...no wins in 17 games.your considerable EL knowledge above would then explain how hendo won div 1st with a budget of less than 3.5k a week and a small squad and how 2 premier teams stayed up this season with budgets of 6 to 7 k.btw gael has that legend darren young been signed yet.Quote:

And do you honestly think he's going to be allowed to sign every spastic that walks past the ground like he was in Waterford??Quote:

If he wants a player he comes to the board and lets them know before the board decide.Quote:

You had him bringing down Brendan Hughes and Darren Young to play Premier ball.
A large slice of the blame for that fiasco lies squarely with your own panicky board IMO, especially with regard to the local lads
Thats just wrong. If that was the scenario a few seasons ago you would be okaying Danny Drew, Michael O'Sullivan and Kieran Judge dictating who plays for Limerick or not. And with all respect to the last two.....Quote:

If the general tone of this thread doesn't improve it's going to be locked.
As for Kerley's appointment I still think the jury is out on him. Great first season with a talented squad that, as I'm surprised JoeSoap hasn't reminded us, was largely assembled by NOC (O'Mahony & Sugrue aside). Second season was a disaster but I doubt Jose Mourinho would have made any more of it. The Waterford debacle was a bit of a poisoned chalice too but I wouldn't dismiss him for that either.
I think we'll be amongst the also rans this season and if we do manage a top half finish he'll have done well (barring any massive revelations in the playing staff between now and season's beginning).
:eek: I've made my opinions very clear on that over the years so I'm not going to keep on about it.Quote:

The most important thing is to introduce some off the field stability and income generation. For me this season, on field activity should be the secondary concern.
Its time for the lofty ambitions and promises made to the fans and general public a year ago to start materialising.
Of course the board should have to sanction who a manager signs before they sign them......Quote:

I'd take Darren Young back, he's certainly no worse than some of what's floating around. Ditto for Ian Rossiter, handy option at right full or centre half.
Edit: I don't think I can edit anybody's posts, only move them to the rubbish forum so perhaps you could edit your own post LTID?
Both of these guys get an unfair rap IMO.Quote:

Maybe because it's so long since I posted it :confused:
Might be best if you bin it such is the outpouring of moral outrage.....
Cheers anyway man

Tell Mike he's no longer needed: "Newcastle United tonight parted company with manager Sam Allardyce less than eight months after he replaced Glenn Roeder." http://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2008/0109/newcastle.html
Bring Sam back :D
Sure let them do it togeter. I'm not sure it would work anyway. Football purists like Jebus would turn their nose up at Big Sam's approach to the game! :)Quote:

Over €100 grand in debt, most of last years team gone, ground being reviewed by the ldmc and kerley in charge, if that`s healthy your dreaming.Quote:
