    but he probably wouldnt go fulltime with his butchers in Lim + he'd possibly have to move down here too. It would be a huge step for him + he cant really walk out of Limerick now, that would be bad form that only a boxers unsuccessful brother would do.

    Thanks Pat for all your efforts but I believe thats football.
    Pat got a tad too big for his boots and after all the crap of the last week I don't believe there was any comeback, he had to go.
    Gilley, Lennox & Gunther paid Pat a visit this afternoon and relayed the news to him.

    Thumbs down

    This is just incredible news.

    With less than 3 weeks to go til the start of the season, Lennox sacks Dolan.

    I'm not going to argue for or against the decision but I'll bet that has diminished our chances of League and cup glory. I'm gobsmacked!!

    Thanks Pat for all you did.

    Pat Dolan, a true Legend.

    Well he's contracted for this season at least so I dont think thats a big problem right now. Us, Shel's and Bohz are probably the only teams that could afford to keep him anyway and I cant see Pat managing any of the other 2 anytime soon. Dont worry about Dolye for now.

    Players have contracts and can't just move on if they feel like it. There is a process to go through and transfer windows to think about.

    Ignore that!

    This is an absolute disgrace! Dolan was the man who turned CCFC around and this is what happens?

    There had better be valid reasons for this.

    So much for "We're in this together!!"

    See the official site. Stuart Ashton is temporarily in charge. Hope to appoint a new man next week.
    Also sounds like the players and Lennox are back together.

    Have no doubt about this but when any manager leaves a club certain players follow.

    I reckon the likes of Doyler, Kearney, Danny Murphywere all Dolans boys and will be gone once the opportunity arrises.

    Even the likes of George and Flynny had become mates of his.

    Fallout will be huge IMO. Gonna be tough for who ever takes over.

    Who ever it is they are going to have to be really a strong character as there was certainly a lot of loyalty for Dolan in the dressing room.

    .....remember how Mountfield fell!!!!

    Fron the official site:

    Press Release
    The players and management have met tonight. The first thing that was discussed was the level of dissatisfaction that was felt by the players regarding the training facilities. The management committee outline what is in the pipeline regarding developments that will be available in the near future. The players are glad to see that their concerns have been taken on board and have agreed to move forward with the club in order to make this season one of the most successful in the club's history. The players also stated that they were disappointed to hear about the departure of the manager but have again agreed to move onwards and are positive about the new challenges that lie ahead.

    Signed,
    The Management Committee & Players.


    Thats good news anyway. Fair play to all involved for keeping things focused "The players are glad to see that their concerns have been taken on board and have agreed to move forward with the club in order to make this season one of the most successful in the club's history"

    Whats going to happen to this though?

    I think the question is will Dolan end up at Limerick with O'Connor? Remember the rumours not so long ago......unlikely, but could happen sometime in the future.

    its not the time for saying "I told you so"

    -What did Dolan do to annoy Lennox so much?
    -How else has Lennox contributed to the bad atmosphere?
    -Have things changed for the better?
    -Are the rifts between chairman and manager, and manager and players connected?
    - Hopefully we'll find out now, but it must have been serious.
    - Did he contribute to it at all? Maybe he should have acted sooner.
    - Obviously not.
    - It would appear so.
