Ah no but seriously, Cronin only left tonight, I'm sure it will take a few weeks to have a new man in place

It's a shame..go to the flansiro a bit when it doesnt clash..love the set up and pitch there..think last game was cup V Bray and even then in a cup quater final it was a poor crowd compared to a few years ago...its a real pity..good club and if the town wants to keep it the should come out and support it.

Left due to the clubs inactivity? What does that mean exactly. Was he told he couldn't bring in players he wanted or something like that?

Mike Kerley maybe? Who else is out of a job who would be a candidate - Heggsy?

Always thought Cronin one of the most articulate and intelligent managers in the league. Hope we haven't seen the last of him.

That was my first thought but doubt he would be interested in First Division.

Does Cronin work in the Dublin area - something apart from football? I've seen him a few times in a suit around the Stephen's Green area
10/12/2009, 1:17 PM

I think he works in a bank in Dublin, not 100% sure on that though. Never seen him in the Stephen's Green area myself and I'm there most days!

Yeah Gareth works somewhere in the Irish Life centre. He's an accountant.

That explains that. Yep I saw him twice recently, along the east side of the Green and then along that little road just off it, Merrion Row. I looked over as he passed by in a group the second time and I think he knew he'd been recognised by a LOI head!

Might be a bit soon for you. You need a few more seasons as manager in the SPL first. ;)

Don't think he was under contract so can't be tapped up as we'd have been well within our rights to speak to him. Having said that, I don't think theres anything in that story.
