Sean Connor doesn't believe in central midfielders. His outfield formation is a rectangle.
A really stupid appointment by Dundalk. A club with real potential and they have learned nothing from the Bohs experience. BTW I was glad he took Bohs a quarter mill, the two Gerrys deserve it. Saw a fair bit of his last season at Sligo, he really is full of bull and a pure actor (pr background). Anyway fair play to him for getting one of the best jobs going these days.
He'll be found out... again. Complete and utter lying, bullying spoofer. wrote Luko........
Found out with what??.....he did sign 8 was it, of Bohs starting 11 in the Cup Final.....Correct me if I am wrong here but were the Bohs board not made out to be the liars in court??..........good luck to Connor for getting back in the saddle and shame on the cowboys who are running Bohs!!
Relegation beckons for Dundalk![]()
What's all this Gerry talk about, who's Gerry?![]()
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
Gerry Cuffe and Gerry Conway, Bohs' President and Secretary respectively.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
The worst thing is he is a decent manager. He done a good job to lead us to the first division title. He seemed to get on with the fans aswell, i rember him stepping on the suporters bus after a defeat to dublin city and with passion promising us the first division title.
Most rovers fans are a bit sore at him "jumping ship" to bohs but it was the way he done it before and after. He is let down somuch by his ego. As was said his constant name dropping (prepare to hear of a link with dundalk and wigan/birmingham city) I won't judge him yet, i think with everything to do with the bohs fiasco he should realise that if he messes up, then he won't get into management again.
We'll see how he gets on, also will depend a lot on the quality he brings in. Most on oriel web appear to be fine with the appointment.
I didnt notice a lot of better options out there that are currently available.
For me, i`m willing to judge him on results with us , nothing else matters, I`ve no interest about his personal stuff or history with other clubs
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

Well there's certainly an element of comic suffering about the situations they find themselves in..

That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.
Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

He can certainly talk the talk, nearly up there with Roddy in that regard. I'm sure he will mention his connections in England with the fans. (Players can expect a good luck card from Steve Bruce before the season starts)
While he did get bohs to third place he did it by playing some of the most boring football ever seen at dalymount. We had loads of clean sheets under Connor but scored f**K all goals as it was a case of everyone defend deep so as not to concede. It seemed not losing was more important than winning
