That was with longford town who at the time were perennial bottom 2 side of the forst division. If you are going to make comparison then at least compare like with like. Or maybe rovers are the modern day longford town
True he can be a bit mad sometimes but he was class st that time. Over full season he got Derry to Europe and played some decent football. Still reckon you'd have to give it to long.
speakin of Kenny Shields was watchin scottish football on BT Sport and they mentioned that he was the last Kilmarnock boss to get them into Europe! he must have being fierce unlucky to have lost his job.
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Far be it for me to speak well for anyone connected to b**s, but long his done a brilliant job there. Supposedly one of the smallest budgets in the league, and has them playing like a team. He could go to pats and whip them into shape, and turn them around from the expensive mess they are.
Maybe, maybe not. Expectations at Bohs were at an all time low when he took over. Once the supporters there start expecting more, that will be the test for him. Not saying he hasn't done well, cos clearly he's done a very good job with the resources he's had.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
