RIX COULD BE QUICK FIX TO WATERFORD'S HOT SEAT HEADACHE
Garry Doyle

Ex-Chelsea coach Graham Rix is in line to become Waterford United's next manager.
Rix, capped 17 times by England, is one of 12 applicants for the vacancy created by Jimmy McGeough's controversial dismissal last month.
McGeough was 'relieved of his managerial duties' at the end of last season despite guiding Waterford to their highest league finish in 15 years.
But now he is set to be replaced by the man who coached Chelsea to the FA Cup in 1997 and the Coca Cola Cup and Cup Winners Cup a year later.
"Graham has applied for the job," confirmed Waterford chairman, Ger O'Brien.
"He is one of 12 people we plan to talk to and I would hope to have a manager in place within a week."
"Most people have been contacted at this stage and there are some high profile names in the hat."
"Graham is one of those. I think his interest in us is a sign of the progress that the eircom League has made in recent years. It's great that we can attract names like his."
"I'd say he sees an opportunity here to do something positive. Certainly Graham has an impressive CV."
He certainly has. Aside from coaching Chelsea to those three major successes, Rix has also been manager at Portsmouth and is currently working with Dundee in the Scottish Premier Division.

"WITH A PACKET OF SWEETS AND A CHEEKY SMILE
GRAHAM IS A PAEDOPHILE"

I was going to say, wasn't he a kiddy fiddler. Jesus, the Munster derby gets better every week. They'll be signing Olli£ next!

This should take some pressure off Moses

Jofyisgod - you're spot on.

With "rat" Connor, "rat" Reynolds and not "pkt of bon bons" Rix on ther side not to mention those sqweeky girlie fans of theirs and on our side we have Devine, Colin T and of course Mr Fenn they are going to be 4 spicy games.

Can't wait.

Feel like the guys in Trainspotting at the moment ...... need to go to a game soon, need to let loose at someone and need put on the colours again.

Come on the 19th March.

16 weeks - twice as long as last year almost!
