Dolan to Shelbourne

[patsh]

In fairness Shels fans do what they are told by Ollie. That is not in dispute. Dolan is secretly a shels supporter I've heard

I've heard that secretly he is a Rovers supporter...

He wants to be head of the Rovers Regiment some day.....

Dolan is secretly a shels supporter I've heard

"I've been attending matches since I was a lad, look at the names, the history, the passion. This used to be a small club you know, but they thought big, dreamt big and now, on the verge of the Champions League Group Stages they are big. Tolka Park, Champions league football isn't it? Ollie Byrne, legend ...eh! Come on, up on your feet for the Tolka Tribe*"

he goes to a lot of their matches and has done for years - the rivalry with Ollie was stagemanaged like teh euro star judges - anyone in the game will tell you that they both actually are close friends 'off camera'

[Peadar]

As close as their bellies will allow anyway.

Much as i'd love Dolan to got to Shels i think thats being too optimistic. Oily & Dolan can't get along when competing against one another so no hope they'd survive when on the same side.

[Dodge]

Laughed at that myself, typical shels fan confusing "most expensive" with best....

[EnDai]

You don't always get what you pay for in football. Ask Woodagte

[Slash/ED]

I would LOVE Dolan to goto Shels but only so I could hear him pretend he was always a Shels fan, has always loved the fans, the club and Olly and the respect he's had for us goes back years etc etc.

[razor]

someone "in the know" has posted on the pats board that Dolan is being lined up by shels, part of a football/property development double act with wallace

Like we haven't enough reasons to hate Shels already.

[BohsFans]

Of all the knee-jerk, stupid Boahs-type reactions (Betcha they'd love to have Kenny now!!)

Not really! He and our board have crippled the clubs finances.

Shels this season remind me of us last season, too many over-paid under achieving players.

[Schumi]

a booing of Fenlon campaign

Again?

[Peadar]

Like we haven't enough reasons to hate Shels already.

That's true. The whole league already hates Shels so what work would there be left for Dolan to do??

[razor]

Shels this season remind me of us last season, too many over-paid under achieving players.

Well it is the same players involved.

[Slash/ED]

Well it is the same players involved.

Yet funnily enough they're the least guilty. Hawkins has been outstanding, Crowe has played well when we've played football which is rare and Ryan hasn't been involved anyway.

[ThatGuy]

I don't think that Nutsy will or should get the chop.

[anto eile]

Of all the knee-jerk, stupid Boahs-type reactions (Betcha they'd love to have Kenny now!!)

Listen lads, for the last time, Wallace has absolutely NO interest in EL football as regards pumping money into it. He regards it as one of the worst investments you could possibly make.

Now, a more realistic proposition for $hel$ would be Kenny ............. or Matthews (Hands off!)

alan matthews he would be great as a GAA manager.longford is what happens when you put GAA players on a soccer pitch

[Ronnie]

longford is what happens when you put GAA players on a soccer pitch.

Thats not a bad idea, if he can win 3 outta 6 trophies with his GAA players, imagine how good he'd be with 11 soccer players...

[patsh]

(Not one of the Longford team would make it on a GAA team, by the way. Maybe the Kilkenny football team.)

Good analogy.
Both teams play absolutely sh*te football....

All managers in this league are pretty ****, at best average, but fenlon did well last season and it was only when ollie started making the signings that things went wrong.

Fenlon is not to blame for that mess! The squad / team he had last year would have pushed Steaua a lot closer and be top of the league.
