    I'm just surprised that he did because a friend was talking to Mick Lee last week and he said that Cronin was suppossed to be saying!

    I'm more concerned with losing Mick Foley and Brian McCarthy tbh, 2 players that we could/should have been building a team around next year.

    we all knew that but his contract with them is up now so i held on to the hope that he would sign for us even knowing that he is capable of playing in the PD

    I think this might be the final straw for the club now. It's a complete shambles.

    Sad day, last straw for the club, get a grip will you's. We will be fine, Cronin is unstable he proved that at Waterford, this is far from a disaster. Its december plenty of time to sort it out.

    One step forward, two steps back unfortunately. Hopefully we get a bit of stability with our next appointment, if we've any players left. At least the timing's ok, it'd have been worse if the season was next week or something.

    I wouldn't be surprised if there was a disagreement relating to next year's budget. I'd imagine the people who were in for the job last time will be in again. Liam Kelly was very interested last time around and had his supporters on the committee I believe. It's an opportunity for someone to make a name for themselves. But it has to be sorted quickly in order to get some semblance of a squad together.

    dessie cawley could be in line again,i know he has favourites on the board. think they need to go the route of building the foundations again as the last two 'big names' certainly havent worked.....

    He had a few discussions with the club apparently and they weren't in agreement on a few things. One of the issues, again this is what I was told, was that he had to do his UEFA A licence course in order to be allowed to manage next season under league rules he currently only has a B Licence. So now they're on the look out for a manager with an A Licence. He did a decent job whilst here so good luck to him in whatever he does next.
