Roddy in by the end of the week?

**Roo69** · 25/10/2005, 10:02 AM

Was told last night by a pretty reliable source that Roddy will be taking over from Johnny Mac at St. Pats by the end of the week, your man from Gretena has or is on the verge of buying them and he wants Collins as manager. Pats players are none to happy about Collins coming in and quite a few want out. Anyone else hear this ?

I liked Roddy's rumours better when he brought Robbie Fowler and John Aldridge into them.

Probably just the media running out of stories again. Yer man Miles Brookson will be linked to every eL club for the next 10-15 years as will de udder fellah Wallace. As for Roddy, sure he's linked with several players and at least one club every week

. It's a miracle he hasn't told the FAI to come and get him!

No this came from players from both clubs

Didn't Bernard O'Byrne recently buy Pats?? If so, I can't see him selling up so soon. As for the roddy rumour, he probably started this himself...he hates not being able to read about himself somewhere.

**Roo69** · 26/10/2005, 1:03 PM

No he was brought in to look after the commercial side of things at Pats.

**joeSoap** · 26/10/2005, 1:07 PM

I thought he was the Chief Exec

**superfrank** · 26/10/2005, 4:20 PM

Mileson's interest in Pats.

**TonyD** · 26/10/2005, 9:21 PM

Thank Christ for that! Wouldn't have Roddy at any price. For Gods sake, John Delaney, just give him the Ireland job and be done with it. The perfect solution all round
