Spoofer.

Who's waffle? McCaffrey or Darius? I always thought that McCaffrey was a spoofer to be honest. I would agree it seems to be a tough position he is in now but he could at least do interviews. Sean O'Connor lost 23 in a row and still did interviews. I just have no mass in him or Don Givens after their years of disaster at national level.

Not doubting the Brazilian is real. just pointing out its very simple (too simple IMO) to get a work permit for a sports professional. If you don't get one, its your own fault.

McCaffrey is 2 montsh into the job and already blaming the media and fans. Thats a horrendous sign

I much prefer Darius Kiernan to McCaffery I thought he did a good job at Drogheda United under tough circumstances and he seems to have a great knowledge of the game and the way in which football should be played, for me he would be a much better Dundalk manager than McCaffery but I dont know if he has the sufficient badges yet, does anyone know if he got them since his time at Drogheda?

Im sure this video and Brazilian has been doing the rounds about a year ago on a thread here????

I'm starting to think myself that Darius Kierans would have been a better choice. He has more LOI experience despite his age, would have better contacts with players and better cope on and know how required for the league. Also he would say stupid things like Rolls Royce players.

Whatever about the 1st team mess i thought McCaffrey would be able for the media. I will question again why the immediate criticism of McCaffrey for not speaking to MNS after the Rovers match and yet 2 weeks on the spin Roddy hasn't appeared, once covered by the extratime spoof and the other Trevor Molloy was wheeled out - not a mention or explaination...Con and the boys covering for their buddy? Fair point about Connor still spoofing after 23 losses on the spin but then he loved himself so much he couldnt pass up the chance to see his mug on tv.

*It seems that after the Derry match it was necessary to climb a gantry for an interview to be conducted, that wouldnt be possible for Sean McCaffrey to do due to his invalidity. Not being familiar with the camera set-up at the Brandywell i dunno if this is a plausible reason or not, but maybe worth consideration?

I was told this aswell. McCaffrey has difficulties with walking as he was in a bad car accident a few years back.

Was Roddy not sent off in the one Molloy spoke? Not allowed anywhere near the dressing rooms/pitch etc for 2 hours after the game.

sorry,,, but have we clarified it is MNS he is not speaking to ? or all media? He does seem to be quoted in the Dundalk papers often

What papers do you read?? If you ask me he never seems to be out of them.

He is just talking to MNS, he was interviews for the Cork match. Even though I think managers should try there best to give an interview, I think sometimes it's not the end of the world if they miss them. He missed two interviews. One was after the Rovers match where we got a 6-0 thumping, he probably should have said something but at the same time his team was humiliated. Then it seems at the Derry match he couldn't access the area where the camera's where located.
