What do clubs run on, the love of the fans, get real pull your head out of the clouds and look at what was on the brink of happening. Mutiny amongst the player and the owner is this what you want because that is what was happening?
For being a poor manager, for being a chancer, for inadequately being able to deal with the player when thing went sour. Not being able to improve the team enough to beat Shels (that is something I have always said as was the flop in dalymount) Losing to Limerick last year, Limerick could be put down as one of the worst teams last year (I am aware this is also due to external things but they still beat us) that was proof to me that my fears were well founded.
For using the players as his mouth piece to have a go about training facilities, to deflect attention that better management of the team would be more productive and instant, which in turn could lead to 3 points over a season rather than his cryptic questions could this and what if that. You can not say that this was not part of his job, now either he didn’t do it or couldn’t do it but these were thing in his realm of responsibility
He didn’t win anything nothing at all, that the facts and he was never good enough to, so my statement that we would have been fecked relates directly to the fact that I have always said if he was doing the job right and Lennox believed in him then my support was there, that what ‘FANS’ do. Check my posts you’ll see that I said he should get another year as he had us in second place, it was before he went to bite the hand that feeds him. If it were a dog and it bit you you’d have it put down because it will do it again.
The demand on money would have meant we would not be able to get the club into profit within the time frame of Lennox’s plans and then what would Lennox do???? He is a business man not a Sultan.
But again you are not really interested in looking at the whole picture I take it?
Full time football brings its benefits regardless of the manager.
And since his departure he’s done more to drag himself down in my estimation then to endear himself to me. Why?
For not walking away after getting the sack.
For meeting with some player after getting the sack
For not behaving as the perfect role model for the eircom league that he portrays he is.
If that's enough for you, do you now want to look at your statement and retract it because it looks as if you responded to something without thinking about it.
No nothing I have said above is rumour, it is all true and well documented, he was being well paid to deliver a title. He didn’t I said he wasn’t the professional we needed but supported Lennox
We have the players to win the league, they were there last year as well.
If the sack was given unfairly, then he should follow due process and go to the labour court, I honestly don’t care if the sack was given to him by carrier pigeon of by text if it had to be done it had to be done it’s not meant to be a time for good vibrations.
Bravo Brian Lennox savour of Cork City.
