Spot on Geezer, it is that comment that should convince the board to stick his CV in the SanServ holder in cubicle number 1 in the clubhouse, about all its good forQuote:

PS I apologise to any employees of Supermacs that may have been offended by this post.
jeff can come over for the next few weeks, sit with billy in the dugout if he can walk from the clubhouse to the dugout and wave his walking stick at our defense. Oh ive had enough ,seriously disillusioned
If he gets the job he could commute from Dublin every day because he'd have the free travel on the train!:DQuote:

Not surprising John thanks .Is that your own website . Rico should be contacted and offered the post he is the best man available.
See this is the problem now, with 1 point from six games, nobody will want to risk there reputation by taking us. He wanted the job 2 weeks ago, now we're further adrift he seems to have changed his mind!!
Should have sacked TC pre-season, this was always going to happen had we been in a pickle!. :mad:
Did he? Who initiated the contact? :DQuote:

Did anybody check these "facts" with the club? :DQuote:

Theres no way they would give the job to Roddy surely! Wasnt too sure of Connor but I can see where lads are coming from saying he is an option. He's gonna be busy in court though so he mightnt be fully focused on the job!

seems like hes heading to scotland - hopefully!!!!
btt where has everyone disappeared to????????
a bit in the tribune today, says Walker wasn't offered the job, but he thought he was getting it. A hell of a lot different from turning it down like he said earlier this week
God, Saviour, Miracle worker €100k bounty plus an apartment beside the sea in Galway for the summer. Job entails Throwing pizza's, using language cleverly, kicking the ass of 12 professional footballers and telling Galwegians they are great. Sounds like Rico or connor for me

This Morning's Metro said Kenna has been offered the job and pending his confirmation will be unveiled this week. the metro is affiliated with the Indo so I'd take it with a pinch of salt
We all know nobody would be offered the job before todays deadline :eek:
How ?? the statement on the Web site is the standard we've "not offered it to any one" that all club's and associations come out with to try and keep whats really going on behind the scenes quietQuote:

Not sure what to think of Kenna if it turnes out to be him.
On the negative he has limited coaching experience (if any?). Secondly he won't know the league or the players in it.
On the positive he might turn out to be excellent although I admit this is just a shot in the dark.
The whole ''Know the league'' thing is'nt necessary IMO. After all how many of us here can say we're up to date with all the other clubs squads, affairs etc...??.
There's massive clear-outs every season and even the managers are using the likes of MNS like ourselves since there is'nt any other means of scoping opposition!!.
Kenna was a top class defender in his day, he's played for Ireland and won a premiership title!. With the way our defense is playing we need somebody defensive minded. It's all good saying let's get somebody who has experience but then again how do you get experience??. He's played at the highest level so should have some good idea's to pass onto the lad's!!. I think considering our position we should be grateful with what we get right now!!
Looks like its a definite got a call 5 mins ago from someone not within the club but in the know elsewhere.
Jeffery told the Irish Indo that he had applied for GUFC the job:
He has something in common with Roddy, according to his Wilipedia factsheet http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Kenna , they both have brothers who are boxers. :eek:
Rico wont take the job because he wife wont move again.
Full name: Jeffrey Jude Kenna
The name swings it for me. Patron saint of hopeless cases St. Jude.
A match made in heaven!!!
& because were not a big club & we can't afford his wages and many more reasons.Quote:
