Alan Reynolds to be the new Bohs boss.
Good appointment if it comes to fruition. Has worked with Fenlon previously so knows what to expect and did well with Waterford in his time there. Not to mention having worked with the u21 team would be aware of what Bohs and other teams in the league have coming through which could be valuable. Surprised he's willing to give up the u21 job though as I had heard it is something he really loves doing.Quote:

He has a decent CV, thought he was a great appointment as coach to DFC in 2020, left due to the basket case of P6 part 2 and he was right.
Some disappointed reactions from Bohs fans but think that's a perfectly good appointment myself. Granted not heap of experience as the main man but he's done well as one, as well as having a great reputation as an assistant and from most people that have worked with him. Could certainly do a lot worse from the limited options you have in this league.
so that's nine different LOI clubs who will have hired Reynolds as player or staff.. presumably a record?
He's almost completed the PD table from 2020
Please spare a thought for the Bohs fan who bricked Reynolds' car 20 years ago at this difficult time for him :)Quote:

Below copied from wiki - 12 clubs, one twice. Should be straightforward who it is, but will leave it as a little teaser!Quote:

Yup..
Feck didn't mean to delete that I had said Dermot Keely. Also would you not consider Home Farm Everton and Dublin City the same club? Were Dublin City not essentially a rebrand of Home Farm?Quote:

Yeah fair enough it's an odd one to be sureQuote:

I truly and honestly wish him well in his new appointnent and hope he offers some new dimensions to our game.Quote:

Good luck Alan
