Now Roddy shall apply for the job and try and remind the bohs faithful of what a messiah he is
All over twitter and the Bohs forum that Pat has walked from Bohs, I presume we'll hear in the next day or so if true or not. Potentially this is great news for Bohs and also the league in general to be done with the mindset that Pat brings. Some on twitter speculating that he's taking a coaching job with Celtic, if true that shed new light on Bohs bizarre trip to Scotland this week.That's right, there’s a question mark in the headline, and you know what that means: It’s time to prognosticate! We don’t have the answers to these questions, but we’ve got the next best thing: wild speculation!

The 'best team in the league' make the rat's teams look like bastions of expansive attacking play.
And we're, oh, so fond of him in these parts
I'm just waiting for the headlines 'Tradegy in Tallaght' - thousands dead, doctors blame boredom!
This would be great news for Bohs if it is true. A substantial saving on wages costs for a manager who is contracted to 2013.
I'm not talking about the apparent expanisve football Pat does or doesn't play, I'm talking about his mindset re ridiculously unsustainable wages paid to players (and himself). Bohs fans and their board seem to have confused the importance of the two as well.SRSLY?

And for what it's worth, there's no need to doubt the 'best team in the league' moniker, we are.
Links ? Twitter or otherwise.
Galway we salute you.
Drop in the ocean with Zurich lurking around the corner in 2012, the year of the Bohs apocalypse
The Leinster Senior League needs a strong Bohemians
I hope he stays.
ill probably be crucified in some quarters for this but id be delighted if this is true.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
I feel strongly that he should stay too. Only Farrelly has done greater things with Bohs....I hope he stays.

Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
I never understood the hostility to Pat.
In my eyes he is the best manager in the league.
Is he not the second most successfull manager in LOI history?
All Bohs needs now is a certain few board members to go aswell if they are to survive another season! Any word on Roddy resigning from Mons yet?
was just about to say of course not but decided to check the mons website first . well you never know
I wish i did not know then what I dont know now
My hostility comes from his attitude to spending. He knows Bohs are f*cked financially, but keeps going back making new budgetary demands and wanting to sign players he knows he can't afford and which he knows threatens the long term future of Bohs. He does this because he wants to be in charge of as good a team as possible to make himself look good. He even took Bohs on a pointless trip to Scotland on Monday, lost one striker to injury and apparently played another one last night even though he looked injured, all presumably so he could rub shoulders with SPL types. Shock horror if he ends up signing for Celtic now.
It's great news for Bohs if he leaves, and suggests that they might finally start to address their spending issues, though that will depend on how long the deals some of their players Fenlon signed this off-season.
Every manager wants the best available budget. It's not their job to say no if the money is offered
Nutsy's a decent bloke, and I've yet to hear a single player who's played under him to have a pop.
I can understand SkStu's point of view, but the problems in Bohs aren't rooted in Pat Fenlon
The majority of managers attempt to squeeze as much money as they can for the squad.
As Dodge rightly pointed it is not his job to set the budget, that fault lies with the board but certainly not Pat Fenlon.
Pat Fenlon wants success, shock and horror.He does this because he wants to be in charge of as good a team as possible to make himself look good.
A man that has won as much as he has of course constantly strives for success, he is a very driven man from what I can make out.
Empty speculation.He even took Bohs on a pointless trip to Scotland on Monday, lost one striker to injury and apparently played another one last night even though he looked injured, all presumably so he could rub shoulders with SPL types. Shock horror if he ends up signing for Celtic now.
Even on the Bohs forum they dont seem to know why or whos decision it was to bring Bohs to scotland.
To land that at Pat Fenlons feet holds about as much currency as those 'financial investigations' into our finances.
You do remember those 'financial investigations' that your 'inside sources' uncovered on the always ultra forum?
Yes Bohs financial problems are the cause of Pat Fenlon, not boards signing off on budgets they could not afford.It's great news for Bohs if he leaves, and suggests that they might finally start to address their spending issues, though that will depend on how long the deals some of their players Fenlon signed this off-season.
Why do some people find it so difficult to comprehend its not Pat Fenlon that sets the budget of what ever club he manages?
I agree with you Dodge, up to a point.
The problems in Bohs are partially to do with successive boards inability to face up his demands. Fenlon is certainly part of the problem
But when he's doing something that quite clearly, he knows this remember, is destroying the club he works for, can he not blame him the umpteenth time he goes back and looks for money to sign Killian Brennan?
Would they be the same allegations that actually first appeared on the Bohs forum?
Funny how that only came to light with Shams fans when their claims were shown to be utter ****e.
Before that it was all 'everyone knows' and 'the inside sources' etc.
But to be fair I do really enjoy watching a good pass the book.
