Erm, no, not this one. Plus he's not particularly hard. Hard men don't have to stick their chests out and act tough, it's a complete lack of self confidence and moral fortitude that's being masked. Sadly it won't change, though if Mons have engaged a psychologist to work alongside him, then you'll not only be Premier next year, you'll have a damn good coach.

I wasn't saying he was, was just following the analogy posted above me and saying that sometimes despite reputation and perceptions, things can be very different.

I think you've misspelled astonish there, passerrby

So how do you like them apples....with 4 of our starting 11 missing 3 goals in first half, again blooding the young local lad in 2nd. Am begining to think Roddy may be the Messiah of the Mons. (and no, he is not just a very naughty boy!)

I'll put my hands up after tonight, I was completely wrong about Roddy. Managing a side to victory over Salthill Devon ranks him up there with Clough, Michels and Shankly.

**Magicme** · 26/03/2011, 12:05 PM

:-D love it. Aw just happy to get another win with us having a few injuries and suspensions and Roddy still getting to know the team. Best start to a season I think we have ever had.

Theres a moral to that story.

I never ever would have put Monaghan... Trevor Jordache and Roddy Collins together.

But now that you say it it's a fairly obvious link.

A one man tent seen outside Dalymount this morning. Unfounded rumours Roddy's inside.

Yeah United were traditionally slow starters (ie sh*t for all of March and most of April) but the past 2 years we've kept a good chunk of the squad together and it shows. Real test next with Cork away. If the good run keeps going until November then we can throw a big parade for Roddy in the Diamond, with toll bridge receipts for tickertape.

**SwanVsDalton** · 30/03/2011, 3:13 PM

Don't know if anyone's posted this yet - just saw it on Twitter. Pure entertainment but I'd be miffed if I was a Mons fan. He's practically fishing for the Cork job, even if he is using a manky Roddy maggot as bait.

**Spudulika** · 30/03/2011, 3:16 PM

And so it begins.....:-) It's all an effort to get back at Tommy for taking his job in Cork (tongue in cheek), Roddy bides his time and harbours long grudges. Gonna be fun! Some article though, jaysus!

**monsexile** · 30/03/2011, 3:23 PM

And the audio version is even, eh, more Roddy

I know this isn't exactly breaking news, but he really is a nasty piece of work.

**Longfordian** · 30/03/2011, 4:21 PM

So since he's got that job he's continually had a go at various managers who've gotten jobs ahead of him as he "didn't rate" them. He's not jealous though. He's such an ignorant tool.
