They're not exactly the same though. Mick Cooke didn't walk away from Drogheda. In fact he's still telling people he'd like the job there. He might have asked for €x but did Drogheda say "no, and we've no intention of keeping you around"? Seems that wayQuote:

Isn't Callaghan taking a job at UCD next season?
The budget argument has been done many times before in this league. Whose fault it is if the club overspends tends to come down to whether you like that particular manager or not - Derry overspent and Nutsy got the blame from most, other clubs have overspent and it was the board going nuts. I don't buy for a second that Roddy Collins has the charisma to sweet-talk that many chairmen any more than I thought Nutsy was a master of persuasion in Derry.
Down in Mervue last week. Funny that. :)
Robert Reid was right on Twitter some of them have an unhealthy interest in us. If I was them I would be more worried about trying to beat Mervue.Quote:

We don't owe money so that can be knocked on the head straight away. As for O'Callaghan we had that bluffer already a few years ago. It would be almost impossible to find a supporter who would want him back.
I know Athlone had the higest budget in the division, but far as I'm aware it wasn't anything substantial. If anything, they would have been having trouble earlier in the season when their crowds were poor, not towards the end of the season when they were getting a much larger income.
Seen a few Longford fans saying we owe money. We do not owe any money to any players. Everyone has got every penny they have earned.
Weren't the Athlone boys very interested in our budget earlier in the season??? And now when we comment about theirs they throw a hissy fit and the moderators are working overtime warning Roddy offenders!! :cool:
Difference is we never said ye owed players money haha Ye are claiming we do without any facts
Not a fan of either Athlone or Longford although they are both fine towns but does anyone have any proof that Athlone own players money or is it just the usual hearsay/rumor ?
No axe to grind with anyone just an interested football fan.
Gavin Peers and Gary Rogers have re-signed for Rovers for 2014.
Connolly's VW have also renewed their sponsorship of the club for another three seasons.
Dundalk have announced that Peter Cherrie has re-signed for 2014.

Bolger, Clarke and Byrne signed up again for Pats
Ironic that seeing as a crowd of your fans are coming down to support Mervue tonight..Quote:
