Kerr is basically in charge of the whole club. Whatever he wants, he gets.
Is he? I didn't know that, I thought he was a titular director of football or something. Is that entirely wise, considering he'd cut and run in an instant if a suitable managerial job came up?
It might be more of a consultancy role until the Shelbourne Development people have an idea about football. All I know is that I'm a lot happier with Brian Kerr involved in the club.
Wouldn't read too much into Kerr having a coffee/drink with one of his ex players. LOI football in Dublin is a very small world, he was probably asking him about a couple of ex Shels players we're more han likely to sign on July 1st
No Kerr, no Kelleher was pretty much the deal as I understand it. According to what was said at the announcement, Kerr turned the job down for a while so as not to step on Johnny's toes.Quote:

He's fast. Not as fast as he used to be, though. Other than that he's pretty ineffective and usually anonymous (particularly when the studs are flying.) He does have a good engine, but it's in his fancy car.
I think even that is being generous to him. Seems a nice enough guy thoughQuote:

Tries hard though. Good luck to him in Dundalk
we might be signing a new keeper. he's from dublin and is friends with waterford's alan mulcahy. i think his name is ronan......any1 have a clue who he is???
I maybe wrong here but giving a team talk at half time isn't exactly keeping his distanceQuote:

But that's my point - Kerr knew he was never going to ignore team affairs if he came back to Pats and thought he could make a difference.Quote:

Houllier for Pats . . .
Ive heard it all now from pats fans . . . .
Even were it not for this comment I cant help but feel pats fans (those on here in particular) are not living in the real world

The sort of detailed data Brian did on his own behalf when he was Pat's manager and the intertnational team.

Is someone going to start an official transfers thread? I seem to remember an attempt to start one a few weeks back. Be nice to have all the comings and goings in one place.
It looks like Mr. Turner will not be going anywhere until the end of season, according to SC in the Mirror. He has apparently picked up a knee ligiment injury and will be out for at least 6 weeks
Unfortunate for Sligo as I think we were prepared to meet their financial demands to get him early.
Shaun Fagan (Motherwell)
Daryl Robson (Middlesboro)
Michael Mensa Yeboah (Dutch)
All signed for Galway United plus one more to be announced on Wednesday. Cant Play Tonight though even though they have been training with Galway for the last 5 weeks.
Harps have signed Declan Divin from Institute.
I'd imagine that guy has a good football brainQuote:

Out
Sean L'Estrange (released). Being linked with Shels and Longford.
Amond - returns to Rovers from loan today.
In
Transfers expected soon.
Bohs look like signing Stephen Dawson from Mansfield & Dean Richardson from Celtic. Also heard we're in for Michael Keane of Rotherham. It's been very quite on the rumour front so far!
Good stuff :D - he's a big Rovers fan and his bro is playing Rovers too IIRC.Quote:

Why would Pat's sign Dave Rogers?:eek:
Been on the cards for over a month now, he had issues "policing" the playing area in Derry so we bought/they ****ed out. JMC wants a better left sided player than Frost so signed him.Quote:
