Heard ski McGee is also in for it. Dermie won't be kept on imo. Whoever takes the chalice with poision in it, best of luck. I hear there are 260 subcriptions which isn't quite 400 but still means about 125k income next year, though gate receipts will be down as most of the 260 would have attended the games anyway and are now in lieu of a season ticket FOC.
Any word on the manager yet?
Brendan Place I hear. If so good choice, great center half and has no baggage with the club. Good luck to them all, com'n de town!
Press Conference scheduled for 1pm tomorrow (Sat) at Lissywollen to unveil the new manager ...
"If you just open that door, you'll find the next manager of Athlone Town."

"I agree, I like the human touch."
Has an assistant manager been announced yet?
are ye signing anyone.Few young Athlone lads with international experience.
At this point and time Athlone Town and their fans are holding their breaths in regards to getting a licence. It is by no way clear if it will happen. Only 3 players are holding up the process, as they refuse to take any deal on offer. All players are being offered 100% of wages owed but the time-frame for the payments is all that is in dispute. Athlone Town have a very poor record of keeping in contact with players once a season ends and this has often led to relations turning sour in the past especially on the subject of money. That aside however, as far as I am aware, all players do end up getting their wages and Athlone Town have never defaulted on that front.
The club will be notified early on Monday morning what the position is, but if the worst is to come to the worst I expect to hear whispers of it emerge sometime during today.
if athlone town are refused a licence whos goin to come in now that the rumours have started that cobh are gettin a "A" licence and kildare co will come in...
