    The only good point (and it is stretching it) about the Rodmeister on MNS is that it should act as a deterrent to any club thinking of employing him !

    Wouldn't go quite that far. But I know that he posted a couple of press releases from Floriana about the situation, none of which appeared on Floriana's homepage. You'd imagine that's the first place you'd post a press release like that.

    After the third or fourth time he posted a link that didn't work I stopped taking his posts seriously. I reckon he's a student or journalist doing some sort of dissertation on how internet rumours can blur the lines between fact and fiction and how easy the media can be manipulated.

    What's this about wife beating comments from the Rod of all Evil? I hadn't heard about this? Spare the Rod and spoil the wife?
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    He made comments on MNS about Paul Cook manages to stay calm and then said he probably goes home and beats the wife. Cue some seriously uncomfortable looking fellow panelists.

    Tried to find that on youtube, but to no avail. This however satisfied my need.

    Where most people might say, "Yeah, but he goes home and kicks the dog" and risk the wrath of the ISPCA, Roddy's brain is wired a little differently.

    On the job front, no Irish club has given Roddy a job since 2005 despite him hanging around like a vulture. I don't count TNB and Shels told him where to go in 2007. Can't see anyone being THAT stupid.

    His Wikipedia page says his MNS contract was not renewed for 2010. Praise the Lord.

    Can't wait to read tomorrow's Star to get his view on things.

    Of course what happened Cork City is all Bray's and Dundalk's fault...

    Bring back Roddy, the tarmacing business is totally under represented on footballing shows, Roddy was a breadth of fresh air in the regaurd.
    In fairness hes a character that is made for Telly, hilarious.

    Well we got our answer in this morning's Star.

    Its back to MNS with him.

    But I did like that bit about Agents asking him if he'd be prepared to take a job in Scandinavia.

    I'll give him a lift to the Airport.

    Maybe he's promised to wind his neck in while he gets one of these in exchange?

    I usually get a laugh out of Roddy's bull, but I'm surprised he's back on MNS. Aren't the FAI paying for the programme to be made to advertise the league? Do they really want an extra-bitter Roddy running down the league? He was already ultra-negative. Now he feels that the FAI have screwed him on the Cork job. So every week we'll have "You see that's the problem with the league".

    Roddy = poor man's Dunphy?

    Controversy is good in the minds of RTE...

    Absolutely. Roddy = Dunphy = Hook = Spillane = Loughnane. "OMG. I can't believe he just said that!!"

    New faces on the couch this year include Paul 'Ski' Magee, the former Irish international, and ex-Drogheda and Cork City boss Paul Doolin. The MNS slot has been moved forward an hour to 7pm.
