Don't think there'll be too many clubs in for Cooke in fairness, he should never have left Monaghan imo.Quote:

He is right to a degree about the second quote - his job is to win games and stay within budget. The boards job is to set the budget and to deliver the financials. Of course the two are closely linked, particularly in relation to any adjustments that must be made in the July window. Sounds like the financial pressures may be having an effect on relationships at Sligo.
Everyone knows that,I think its more the timing of the statement.Just when Cooke's stock is at its highest.
Then he follows up with comments about money issues.
Well at least they have a cup match againest the mons that should help them out for a few weeks financiallyQuote:

A joint statement from supporters club was released to highlight these, just like the one Shamrock Rovers supporters clubs released about being picked on when they travel to Derry
Rovers is a small community club,but the level of good will towards Rovers within the community is outstanding, maybe this annoys 'bigger clubs' at times that we can compete at a decent level with such a small population and very little resources behind us. The vast majority of money that runs Rovers is all fom the local community,and thats what communities do, pull together to help out and have been doing for over 80 years. Or as shams would call us 'minnows'
What LOI manager wouldn't jump for a better deal tomorrow?
In saying that, Cook was offered the moon and the stars by both Shams and Pat's after Scully and Kenna's departures. He stayed with Rovers.
Cook was offered the "stars an the moon" by Rovers in 2009? You don't believe that do you?
Don't know about Pats but the rest is absolute b**** and you know it is. There's not one person outside of Sligo who would believe it either.Quote:

I doubt we offered him anything, Mahon came in for the last 8 games of the season then got the job full time, I think Rico was the only other manager we approachedQuote:
