According to the Metro Kenny will put pen to paper on a 3 year deal at the Brandywell this week
He has signed NOTHING yet - a lot of the media are jumping the gun.
Derry Chairman Quoted as saying "We ARE delighted to have stephen back at the Brandywell"
Sounds pretty decisive to me

He has agreed personal terms, but there are still some other issues which need resolved.
Regardless of what the papers are saying, he hasn't signed any contract yet.
If you read my first post again you'll see that I've said he WILL sign this week
never said he'd signed yet
And I never questioned your post.......some media outlets are claiming he is the new manager, when he isn't yet. It is those reports that I am clarifying

Will he be allowed back in Derry, he didn't exactly leave on great terms with some of the locals?
There will always be a few dissenters but the reaction is overwhelmingly positive.Quote:

There will unfortunately be huge, and unrealistic, expectation when Kenny returns....

Anyhow, if he is back, then no better man for the job. Hopefully, he will see it as a longterm project allied to the Brandywell Properties development. We need stability, the only expectation I have is that he gets the players bonded like he did before and gets them playing for each other again. As long as I see that displayed I'll be happy enough. Progress should be gauged by fans over a 2-3 year period. The problem is - will SK visualise himself at the Brandywell in 2 years?
After Fenlon's dismantling of any type of football and atmosphere at the Brandywell I am delighted he is likely to come back. Robertson was never interested in it and most people realised this after 3months affecting everything around the club.
Didn't follow that closely but there seems a lot of the team he put together have moved on. Does he need to completely rebuild of will he be able to be competitve with what's there now?
In typical football fan speak, we need 4-5 players.....
Chances of his Dumfermline signings (like Horseface Ryan) moving with him back to the Northwest?
More likely his backroom staff will follow....Quote:

Victim of his own success. We've seen what he can do in Ireland with Longford and Derry so of course expectations will be high.Quote:

What you must question is the loyalty of Mr S Byrne - for as soon as the cash dried up he was off like a shot up the road for the next gravy train...

What did you expect hime to do ? Stay there and not get paid :rolleyes: Lets forget about the bills , mortgage , kids , wife etc .Loyalty me whole .
It will make for a few tasty quotes anyway.
Healy was trying to rile SK in the run up to a NorthWest derby. Kenny said nothing and then
"When you beat your rivals by ten points, your assert your authority. When your beat your rivals by fifty four points there is nothing left to say".
Well said Maribor, think kenny will shut a few folk up, bring it on, and lets get into stuey the rant byrne next year.Quote:
