First managerial casualty of the season. It was fairly inevitable however.
The big question, who's going to replace him?
This is never quite as much fun when Roddy is already in a job.
Word is that Roddy is already "a done deal".
Potential swap?? Matthews going the other way? ;)
Oh jesus dont let it be true. Matthews is a horrible manager. Would have Roddy anyday over him
Has to Sean "Begging bowl" Connor.
Scully would be a decent bet I'd imagine.
Pete Mahon
Hmmmmmmmmmmm...
Stage one complete... now for stage two.
Hearing the Roddy 'done deal' too. They'd hardly pay compensation for him?
I'd put money on Scully..if I had any to spare.
Owen Heary being mentioned over on thebohs.com
Mahon is at nearly all their home games. I reckon it will be him.
I'm sure Roddy will come out saying that Shels were mad after him but he has started something over in Athlone and he wants to continue seeing over it!!
You did remember to plan a stage two, right?Quote:

Probably but he has to start somewhere and Shels (Ollie i suppose) have taken leaps of faith with inexperienced managers before...which worked out a charm.Quote:

He not in exile in Zimbabwe or South Africa still?Quote:

I don't have the highest regard for Scully but he might do the job for Shelbourne. At least get them out of last place anyway.
I now fully expect shels bargain basement team of cloggers, rejects and hatchetmen to shoot up the table and quite possibly win the league.
Wouldnt be sure about Scully.
History there I reckon the shels fans would turn on him within minutes.
Odd that Harps fans are hearing voices regarding the manager of an opposition side :-)
Lots of options for Shels, just depends on what they want to do. The usual names will pop up, Pat Scully, Pat Dolan, maybe Rico though I doubt it. It's a good job for someone like Owen Heary.
What? There's more planning required?Quote:

Yup. Same source as the "Heary deffo has it" rumour. :)
Johnny Mac confirmed at Shels

Who's in the running for the Waterford Utd job?
Scully maybe? He has that experience of getting teams promoted.
They could take Tommy Dunne on loan and pay half his wage?Quote:

I remember watching them play Harps up in Ballybofey; Kerr was in the crowd (beside me) but still doing some coaching at the full-back Byrne on a fine may evening. Keith Fahy was on that Pats side and I also met an injured Gary Beckett in the chiper outside the ground before the match.
I thought he was a taxi driver
he is indeed a taxi driver. decent bloke and has a very good knowledge of LOI. Expect he will improve Shels.Quote:

Gets a hard time from some fans who say he spent loads and won nothing, but in fairness was up against a Bohs side and a Drogheda side who were also spending big. He also managed the team when we hadn't a pot to pee in and kept us up. (Never Relegated :cool:)Quote:
