Really, it's just any excuse to have a dig at Roddy Collins.
His son shouldn't be in the league when there's bigger players around him after all.

Roddy Collins in he's column with the Star today.
" I'M delighted to confirm that discussion s with the Waterford United board have gone really well with regard to my appointment as manager.
A few matters remain to be finalised and that will take place over the next few days.
I've been very impressed by the people I've met at the Blues and I can't wait to get started.
I know all about the club, the players and am well aware of the great tradition of football in the city.
All the players will get a fair crack of the whip to show what they can do. And I can guarantee the fans on Suirside that I will improve each and every player.
Anybody who doubts that need, only look at Monaghan United in 2011 and Athlone Town two seasons ago".
Best of luck to Roddy, he should do a great job in Waterford.
News this evening is Waterford are set to have a press conference tomorrow at 1.30 p.m.
That's honestly what I'm thinking!! At least if we go, it'll be on the front page of the papers, not a brief note under the Premier League news.Quote:

I really hope Alan Matthews doesn't take over.Quote:

apart from Waterford fans
I really hope Roddy does well with Waterford this season and Shels end up finishing last. MegaLOLs all round
If he does, its safe to say we won't be back in the premier for a while(not that we will be anyways).Quote:

Johnny Glynn would be the perfect choice but then again he's been out of the league for a while now which may or may not throw up some problems for him as a manager.Quote:

After failing to force Owen Heary and Liam Buckley out of their jobs and not being considered at Bray, despite making eyes at them, and despite only a few weeks ago saying he'd never "manage" in the LOI again, the man who talks out of both sides of his rear is back in the LOI. Gotta feel sorry for the people he named tonight, they'll be the same people who ruin/destroy/betray him in September. Good man manager, dangerously unhinged person.
Continuity MonDogs! Welcome back!Quote:

Getting Sporting Fingal promoted, Drogheda shopping centre development, Ollie Byrne leverage of Tolka, Bohs deal with Liam Carroll and Zurick Bank loan on Dalyer are all dubious achievements and had little to do with proper soccer management.
