Are you admitting defeat in the fans fickleness stakes? :eek:

Thats about the only thing you've won recently!

Anyway, you'll have your chance to have a pop at the poisoned dwarf soon enough if rumours are anything to go by.....:p

No, the Notorious Boo Boys were chanting "We want Nutsy out" up in the Brandywell last month, so we're taking credit for this one. :D

I heard that Fenlon has genuine personal reasons for leaving, while things havent gone according to plan.
I also heard that Gorman is well respected on the training ground and they have been working non stop to try and put things rite. :ball:

I read a few comments from the Harps fans, they make me laugh!

Gorman had a better record at Harps than Hegarty, funny:) and they ingratiate themselves in abit of turmoil at Derry, sad :p

You should have asked for our help, could've got rid Farrelly for you in a few weeks. :D Leave it to the experts next time.

:o Should have remembered that. I've tried to block that night from my memory. Mainly because of the sight of you in a thong! :eek: ;)

Dont think we would have had the dollars for Fenlon. Would have been nice though, he would have done something about the pitch.

Please explain why you think this?

His tactical awareness, his signings, his team selections and his attitude leave a lot to be desired imo. He had one lucky european run with Shels against a torn apart Split and a 0-0 draw to a La Coruna side in turmoil. He bought all the best players in the league and turned them into useless feckers.

Perhaps Derry will take Paul Hegarty from us? We will pay them compo to do so:D

I cannot believe people are suggesting Peter Hutton and even Gorman on here. What is Hutton's past experience as a manager? As far I heard the players are fighting among each other; would you really put an existing player in charge?

I know very little about Derry City, who are the major contenders to take the job?

David Jeffries is favourite apparently

Fenlon and Linfield would be good for eachother.
Mightn't need to move there either.

Isnt Jeffries only part time at Linfield though? I always thought he worked as a social worker (or something similar) based in Belfast as his full time occupation and the part time set up suited him!? Would he be willing to give that up to manage Derry!?

Yeah that was one of the reasons he wasn't interested in the Bohs job.

As a Derry fan id welcome David Jeffries, but think the club need to look at someone outside the country, bring new faces in, and get rid of the trouble makers in the club, no 1 player is ever bigger then DCFC, so ship them out.

Woo-hoo ! :D

I don't think there's any need for uninformed stupidity either, and will tickle it with my aloof patronising tone whenever I doth desireth..... :p

Stephen Kenny had a budget comparable to Fenlon and we were out of the title race mid season. We also went out of the cup to (I think it was) Kildare.
Anyway, scenario - Connor gets the chop for the poaching incident (if true) Fenlon comes to us, Connor goes to Derry. :eek:

Not the only reason why he was sacked!

He had the biggest budget in the clubs history and we were rubbish that season IN THE LEAGUE.

He couldn't handle the pressure going into the home game with Leavdia, made a stupid team selection call and lost his job.

Rightfully so!

U can keep that Connor bucko at Bohs, he's a spoofer.
Maybe, Roddy could take him to Louis Copelands to sort out the red tracksuit thing and the two of them could get the next ferry out of Dublin, we would all be happy

By the way it's David Jeffrey.

Also there is a better chance of Sven becoming the new Derry City manager than David Jeffrey.

David Jeffrey is on a hefty wage at Windsor, doing a part-time job. He is also a big wig Social worker. So it would take one hell of a pay check to tempt him to Derry City.

That's not to mention the fact that he is a big blueman and wouldn't leave to join another club on this island(unless NI national team job was offered he would consider it).

If you knew him, you wouldn't believe that for a second. Although he does insist he is a Christian, but would admit a terrible advert for a Christian.

That's your call. Maybe you should go onto the Irish League forums and ask the rest of the Linfield support. Any of them that know him would back it up.

So who should we have appointed instead ? :confused:

Name me one other decent manager who was available (Obviously means not Shoddy, or the sort of mid-table ones that UCD invariably gravitate towards... :D).

Mike Newell would be the ideal manager imo. He only got sacked when his Chairman made him sell all his best players at Luton.
