    Favourite
    Alan Mathews (our most successful manager)
    S Kenny (injected the enthusiasm and belief required at the time)
    Eh..Nutsy (perhaps strangely but was bang on on the couple of occasions I ever met him)

    Hated
    Roderick (self explanatory)
    Rico (pompous clown who's not half as intelligent as he thinks he is. Broke our dressing room door too. Boo.)
    Paul Doolin (miserable hoor)
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Funnily enough find this difficult - not too many managers p**s me off lately.

    Three most like

    Nutsey - for all the success he has had at Bohs. Sound bloke as well.

    Paul Cooke - sound bloke, good manager.

    Roddy - like him / hate him should be on both lists but God is he entertaining.


    Not liked

    Rico - pretentious clown

    Seanie boy (Connor) spoofer supreme

    Pete Mahon - good manager but ALWAYS moaning

    I'll go with 4 of each, if I can.

    Favourite -
    Rusty (obviously). Honorable mentions for Pete, Martin Moran and the Doc.
    Alan Mathews - Apparently recognised a UCD fan in work and was asking about us gatecrashing the C&D Foods Christmas party a couple of words previously.
    Stephen Kenny - no particular reason. Maybe just for doing well with Longford.
    Paul Cook - plays decent football; is usually refreshingly up front and honest in his interviews too.


    Hated -
    Doolin - Duh.
    Keely - How many people has this man put off LoI? Those who were near me during our 2-2 against Shels last year will know my full feelings on him.
    Fenlon - moany little whinebag
    Roddy - Duh

    All managers are spoofers.

    Some are just bigger spoofers than others. Most believe their own hype such as Richardson, Roddy and Connor which cumulates in people loving them and hating them in equal measures.

    Others portray themselves in the media as complete whingers like Fenlon and Mahon who despite their success, are widely disliked.

    Occasionally, there are managers who just damn good. Stand up Paul Cook.
    Nobody knows us, we don't care

    Rico- 2005 , do i need to elaborate ??
    Alan Mathews - Seems a great manager, had great intentions for us before it all went pearshaped .
    Paul Cook - He's got Sligo playing a nice brand of football and it's now made them one of the best teams in the LOI.

    Dislike :
    Roddy
    Fenlon
    Sean Connor .

    Fenlon is disliked because of his success. Mahon is just disliked, cant remember him ever winning anything.

    Like:

    Rico - decent bloke. We played some lovely football under him.
    Alan Mathews - a decent manager. I would have liked to see how he would have did if tings didnt go tits up.
    Paul Cook - has Sligo playing a great style of football and a decent chap to boot.

    Dislike:

    Roddy Collins - comes across as an absolute p****. This person didn't want a player of Dan Murrays calibre in the club. Takes credit for every decent player in the league even if he's never heard of them.
    Paul Doolin - Negativity is his middle name. His style or lack of is ard to watch.
    Pat Fenlon - He's just incredibly unlikable.
    Good evening!
