If you delay too long, you go out of business.
Look at the damage done to the morale in the club by Dolan going to the press about club matters.
Now that's a bad business policy.
He naturally tries to make an enemy of everyone.
Cork City FC will be all the better for this brave decision by our chairman.
true.Quote:

Brian has my personal support 100% in this
So he doesn't care about the pay-off?Quote:

I only hope Lennox takes on another manager as progressive and proactive as Dolan.
adam
any response from Colm on all of this?????
he was rabidly pro dolan no matter what - twould be interesting to hear his take on all this

I'm pro-Cork City in all of this, not for or against either man.
A poll like this merely gives the idiots who want division at our club, the chance to spew theior venom at anyone they see as being on the other side.
true. thecorner, there is a middle ground here.Quote:

I think poll results largely reflecting the votes on the "Dolan can he stay...?" from few days ago.
I want to know the reasons for the sacking before I can decide who I am behind.
But, for a chairman who has said on many occasions that he just wants to work behind the scenes and remain faceless, he certainly has made his presence felt.
How was it from nothing?Quote:

You werent title contenders either before he arrived!

It would be very ignorant of anyone to suggest that Dolan made the team.
Liam Murphy had done all the ground work and had brought in most of the players Dolan used.
who said he made the team but he helped it along and made changes!
So you are now going back on your original statement, suggesting that we came "from nothing"?Quote:
