New Manager...

I'm sure ye'll have Ski McGee and Des Cawley applying for it. They've both applied for our job twice and Athlone's in the past year. Not that I'd particularly suggest you give it to them..

Is Roddy Collins really so far-fetched? He's been saying some pretty positive things about us over the past year, and whatever your opinion of him, he has won trophies in the game.

If roddy gets the job i will personally mail a bag of dog sh**e to the showgrounds, registered post.

If you're stuck for ****e, pm me - I have a dog.

If Cook doesn't come back then Pat Scully might be worth checking out.

Scully is a miserable git, but would be one of the better options of the jobless managers out there. Who is taking the next training session I wonder? Anyone know?

After he managed to fall out with practactly everyone at Shams he sounds like just the man.

Yeah, a manager who can run a team on a low budget along with finding and establishing young talent. Proven at both clubs he's managed and has always had a good word for sligo rovers. Leaving shamrock rovers doesn't make him a bad manager. I'm just merely adding a suggestion to an open thread. Maybe you could name an alternative instead of trying be a smart*ss.

Last season, we played the most attractive football in the league. Under Scully, Shams were horrendous to watch - everyone back and a big hoof up at a lone striker.
I'm stunned that anyone would even momentarily entertain the idea. I wouldn't let him clean the jacks in the Showgrounds.

Sorry you missed the irony in my post, considering the rivalry between the clubs. Anyway you shouldn't let such triffle matters grate so much.
