Definitely keep it!
Oh hell yes it stays!!!
The glass isn't half full or half empty it's just too damn big!
Even the suggestion that we drop the chant and the name is rubbish IMO. Dolan was the manager, not the whole club. Keep the chant and keep the name. WE, the fans, are the Rebel Army, not Pat Dolan, not Brian Lennox or anybody else.
It'll be something for us to remember him by.

retire the rebel army chant in honour of the great man
NOOO!
Great chant, in fairness to Pat, his brainchild, but as Éanna said, it is our chant, not his.
REBEL ARMY!
will you please get a grip
do people follow Pat Dolan Or CCFC!!!!!!!!!
maybe people will support Limerick now so
sad to see him go but thats football, its the team i'm worried about and a new manager(be it Rico) needs to be in place asap
I've only been following the club for one season but, in my humble opinion, I think the Rebel Army chant should be kept as I feel it really gives us that extra man on match nights.
I'm a bit gobsmacked to read someone was suggesting retiring the damn thing!!
Football is life. The rest is mere detail...
Maybe in recognition of Pat's great service to the fans maybe we should give it one more "Pat Dolan's" version as our way of saying thanks at the next Cork match.
No disrepect to the next manager, just our way of saying thanks to Pat for the memories.
We can swap around the names easily:
Pat-Dol-an's Rebel Army
changes to
Rich-ard-son's Rebel Army
Damo Rico's Rebel Army?
Have Boot Disk, will travel
"richardson's" or "we are rico's" fit better imhoDamo Rico's Rebel Army?

"Ricos Rebel Army" is nice 'n simple.
You just can't change it to Rico's Rebel Army.
We can now sing it as just Rebel Army with no reference to anyone. It would just seem so wrong to use anyone other than Pat Dolan's name in it.
Champions!
Agree-it would be like spitting on his memory
Rebel Army alone is grand.
Or how about always singing "Pat Dolans Rebel Army"? It would be fitting I think, seeing as he did so much for the club.
Or am I just living in the past?
