just hot off the press! Tony Cousins is the new town manager!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
you are right there Longfordian plus I would guess Derek Glynn will stay too.. Will that mean a lot of last seasons squad will stay cos of Philip Coffey?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Cronin was planning on keepng 10 or 11 of them apparently if he stayed so I'd assume Phillip Coffey will mention the ones he feels should be kept to Tony Cousins. I don't know enough about Coffey's relationship with the players to say whether that would mean they'll be sticking around but at least he'll know all about them.

a positive move by the club bringing someone in so quick. This could turn out to be a good appointment. As for galway fans not liking him they dont like gough, kenna and now foster too so thats irrelevant. Best of luck to tony and philip heres hopin for an improved season

some interesting facts on him on the great manager to be himself.. I remember in December 1990 buying Match magazine and reading the lineouts in it.. on the bench in that particular issue for Liverpool that day but didnt come on was a certain Tony Cousins!

How do you remember that?
I remember him being on the bench for Liverpool a few times back in the day alright. Before you were born Keen2Win!. When Liverpool used to win leagues.

Will he attract any new players?
When youve no expectations or standards to live up to how can you possibly go wrong!!!!!!
Anyone was going to be a bit "meh", but at least it's an early appointment and he'll get a full preseason. Some of the things that were an issue with Galway will be less so with us (being Dublin based for one). Galway are the new bohs in terms of being fickle anyway.
On the other hand...
Cousins OUT. YSB
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
Will he be available to give Taxi lifts from the Flansiro after matches?
I just sit down at the typewriter & start hittin the keys, just hittin the keys. Getting them in the right order though thats the trick, thats the trick.

I just don't get it...
Man United fans watch Man United TV
Chelsea fans watch Chelsea TV
Arsenal fans watch Arsenal TV
But why do Liverpool fans watch the History Channel?
Sporting F*ck All!
How do you know when I was born?
Unless you're a particularly "special" secondary school student (you've said before you're in school) you weren't born when Liverpool last won the league!.

True! Anyway, I'm not going to make any judgements until the first half of the season is over!
a guy did his leaving in moyne (last year i think) at the young age of 36
All this thing about Galway fans being fickle is rubbish. No team likes losing their manager particularly to their rivals.
Tony Cousins had to go. He played horrible football, and had a huge budget, a big source of our crippling debts today. He also said that every player had to move to Galway, when he was going remaining in dublin himself. Most of the players were unhappy with this. It proved out to be a masterstroke replacing him with Kenna
The hatred towards Kenna was because he committed himself for the 2009 season, and got on the payroll for a month. He then walked when Pats job came around
The so called hatred towards Foster is not the opinion of all Galway fans. We are dissappointed that he has gone to Dundalk, but he hadn't a choice given the conditions he had to work in last year. Most of the hatred has materialised as a result of whats came out in the papers about arguements in the dressing room. I for one am thankful for Foster's work last year, he did a good job on minimal resources.
Now getting back on topic, Cousins should prove a good appointment for ye. A major hindrance for us in his spell was that not too many players were willing to come to Galway, whereas for ye, ye are alot closer.
