Was he sacked or "mutually consented";) Any compo due to him ?
Well the statement says he was released from his contract, take what you will from that?Quote:

Statement from the board
DCFC - Board Statement
John Roberston
Tuesday 11 December 2007
The Board of Derry City FC have released John Roberston from his contract with the club with immediate effect.
Unfortunately Mr Roberston, in the view of the Board, has not been and will not be able to fulfill the terms of his contract and the club are now actively seeking a new manager.
:)
Matthews perhaps?
He never seemed fully commited to the job in my opinion and no doubt was trying to do something with Derry in order to get a move back across to Scotland where he can go down in history as one of the all-time greats while managing the likes of someone like Dundee or Motherwell.
So, who wanted Conor Sammon?:confused:
Hopefully his less than glorious tenure at Derry City will count against him in Scotland
Me and anyone else who watched him play against Derry at the Brandywell.Quote:

Lessons to be learned here in that we need someone local, someone who hates travelling ,especially on aeroplanes ;) and does not want to uproot a family to take the job . Any ideas :p?
Would you like David Jeffrey?:DQuote:

An adult sized manager is all I want for Christmas.
Robertson never took the job seriously from the start, as anyone who travelled on the trip to Armenia can attest.
Kenny left on good terms , returned for the cup-final , and left the door open for a return if things did'nt work out in Scotland.
The only thing I would say is, their are very few players/managers who have been a success the 2nd time round. Although their are exceptions
Go on......... spill the beans.:pQuote:
