Had he won the el we would of been fecked as he would of been here for ages, thank goodness he was found out.
Just on the Kevin Doyle thing, I personally would want to win something for once in my life no matter where it was, not jump ship. What do you do if you win nothing at reading? move on???
should of stayed one something and then move on.
I wonder does Pat get a finders fee.

Found out as what exactly??
And are you saying it's just aswell we didn't win the league last year?
You sir haven't got a clue.
Champions!
I think that he's trying to say that we could have gone boom and bust like St Pats.
Would you like to be where Pats are now?![]()
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
I suppose there is the idea that better to have won (league) than never to have won at all.Originally Posted by Troy.McClure
However Lennox has seen City (almost) fold in the past & seems to have made it his goal to ensure club is strong enough for the long term. I grew up in Cork with no senior football team & took many years before City were well established so understand his logic.
Anyway, who cares, we're doing better without him now! TOP OF THE LEAGUE![]()

What do clubs run on, the love of the fans, get real pull your head out of the clouds and look at what was on the brink of happening. Mutiny amongst the player and the owner is this what you want because that is what was happening?
For being a poor manager, for being a chancer, for inadequately being able to deal with the player when thing went sour. Not being able to improve the team enough to beat Shels (that is something I have always said as was the flop in dalymount) Losing to Limerick last year, Limerick could be put down as one of the worst teams last year (I am aware this is also due to external things but they still beat us) that was proof to me that my fears were well founded.Originally Posted by Colm
For using the players as his mouth piece to have a go about training facilities, to deflect attention that better management of the team would be more productive and instant, which in turn could lead to 3 points over a season rather than his cryptic questions could this and what if that. You can not say that this was not part of his job, now either he didn’t do it or couldn’t do it but these were thing in his realm of responsibility
He didn’t win anything nothing at all, that the facts and he was never good enough to, so my statement that we would have been fecked relates directly to the fact that I have always said if he was doing the job right and Lennox believed in him then my support was there, that what ‘FANS’ do. Check my posts you’ll see that I said he should get another year as he had us in second place, it was before he went to bite the hand that feeds him. If it were a dog and it bit you you’d have it put down because it will do it again.
The demand on money would have meant we would not be able to get the club into profit within the time frame of Lennox’s plans and then what would Lennox do???? He is a business man not a Sultan.
But again you are not really interested in looking at the whole picture I take it?
Full time football brings its benefits regardless of the manager.
And since his departure he’s done more to drag himself down in my estimation then to endear himself to me. Why?
For not walking away after getting the sack.
For meeting with some player after getting the sack
For not behaving as the perfect role model for the eircom league that he portrays he is.
If that's enough for you, do you now want to look at your statement and retract it because it looks as if you responded to something without thinking about it.
No nothing I have said above is rumour, it is all true and well documented, he was being well paid to deliver a title. He didn’t I said he wasn’t the professional we needed but supported Lennox
We have the players to win the league, they were there last year as well.
If the sack was given unfairly, then he should follow due process and go to the labour court, I honestly don’t care if the sack was given to him by carrier pigeon of by text if it had to be done it had to be done it’s not meant to be a time for good vibrations.
Bravo Brian Lennox savour of Cork City.

Actually, you could make the exact argument for keeping on Gunther! We were very very close to winning the Cup with him, which would have got us in to Europe so presumably he would have stayed on instead of quitting!Originally Posted by Colm

Yes he was rewarded with the Director Job but who here can say he didn’t deserve it after his commitment. You didn't see him do anything as low and despicable as meeting the players who are contracted to a club.

I think it is putting it nicely to say that I was sceptical of Dolan from the beginning, but it is time to get on with things and if certain fans make the choice to keep on wearing rose-tinted glasses when they remember his time in charge so be it.
Cork City was only beaten in home game under Liam Murphy (?)...He brought in John O'Flynn, George O'Callaghan and let us play football at Turners Cross....what a legend![]()
We'll just forget that we only managed one win away from home. That's irrelevent sure...
Normally I don't answer the rubbish posted but it was in a response to someone else. Do you know what it makes me do shout even louder for City.... City from the cross...Originally Posted by niamh
