Jesus i doubt Cooke will be involved. If any of those 3 got the job there will be alot of ****ed off people in Athlone.
Is there anything to be said for Roddy managing both Athlone and Waterford?
What is Pat Scully up to these days.
Micky O'Connor must be due another turn.
Alan Mathews would do a fine job with Athlone. As a Longford man though i obviously don't want to see our most successful ever manager taking over that lot

I love the fact that there's even anyone even suggesting Mick Cooke might get the job. #GreatestLeagueInTheWorld
And is there some particular reason why he shouldn't?
Ahahahahaahaha please I begQuote:

Saw Johnny Glynn mentioned on another thread, but not here. Any particular reason why not? Done a superb job at Mervue and not that long out of League management surely? Lot less than Hendo, for example, and not much longer than Roddy, sure!
He would seem a decent choice. Certainly did well with Mervue.
Think he has a job with NUIG as head of the football department I'm sure that's a lot more stable than any LOI club particully one releasing statements like Athlone have done this season
Great result there. Hire him right now! He managed to do what many other managers fail to do. The only let one in against Dundalk. ;)Quote:

Matthews Matthews Matthews. Now lets hope it worked.
A proven failure

Wont be the most exciting football that's for sure, but he'll be well able to make the team solid and capable of grinding out lots of results, wish him well.
I think Athlone would settle for the type of failure he was with us...Quote:
