Thats rubbish. Kenny had a fantastic squad at Bohs and Fenlon outdid him twice out of three times with similar resources. Kenny has one league title to his name, Fenlon has won three, including one back to back success.Quote:

This was a Bohs team with Ryan, Morrison, Crowe, Grant, Hawkins, Ward, Hunt, Lynch, Webb, Heary, Harkin, Keddy etc. On paper it was a squad just as good as the Shels squad.
I don't know how much of Derry you've seen this year FinnPark, but Rogers has been one of our better players.
Perhaps to the untrained eyeQuote:

It has been reported on a forum elsewhere that Fenlon offered his resignation last night. Not sure how true that is but no smoke without fire as they say.
It is Derry butQuote:

Have you just finished a Bachelors in Derry City Football Club or something with the constant self-appreciating posts regarding the performance of the team and the manager?
How's the Finn Harps manager doing?
Trying to curb his temper in the stands for the last two matchesQuote:

I bet you would just love to have our manager right now. I mean a statue would be just as good - 1 point out of a possible 15 :p . Heck, you would be a better manager yourselfs all of you

Or how about 6 out of a possible 12 in the league - which is 50% better than a certain other club with only 4 points out of a possible 12 to their name in a p!sh-easy league.....Quote:

That % is going down every match. Its 0% wins in the last 5 games. What he still is doing as manager is behond me.Quote:

He finished 4th one season but people's memories on this forum as are short as the distance between Longford and Derry in Premier table. What has he really achieved? How many FAI cups? How many League Cups? He won last season's title on refereeing decisions.
What's a "machatcho", and can I use one to light my fire....?Quote:

Not one of them agreed with the "give him a bit more time" line.
