Its about time he's gone!! why did it take so long? he clearly had no idea what he was doing..

I think waterford shud be goin looking for managers rather than getting applicants. Anyway Reynolds as Player/Manager again?? Anyone think??

**SPXcyan** · 24/07/2006, 9:01 PM

I wouldn't mind!!

Waterford wernt a bad side wen he was in charge. A few good players like sullivan, connor, waters, purcell etc... You put us out of the cup a few years ago and now how much you have fallen. Also Limericks rise in munster didnt really help with them buying 3 of ur best players

Bit harsh on Kerley lads he had shag all money to deal with and had to assemble a squad with very little time. Yes the rise of Limerick was a prob too and i think ye should go after Noel O'Connor now who is by far the best in munster.

Why didn't Kerley play for Waterford while manager?
He's hardly an OAP and couldn't have been much worse than what ye had.
Wasn't he playing for Waterford Crystal last year?

If a squad player can't get his game for Waterford at the moment, he must be really, really bad.

**trevy** · 25/07/2006, 9:17 AM

Kerley hasn't played in a few years I think.I think your getting him mixed up with Brendan Rea who was manager for a while last season who played for Waterford Crystal last year.I'm glad Kerley is gone,3 points from 18 games,negative tactics with 1 man up front all the time and no motivation from the sideline.Who'll want the job now

?

Interesting developements happening down here on suirside this evening, Jimmy McGeough was on local radio saying he wants another shot at the job from which he was unduly sacked from and he says he has "unfinished business with the blues".
With c**thead O'brien gone (the tyrannical former chairman) the way is open for a return by the fans favourite McGeough.
Local radio was hopping here all day with people texting in saying they want to see jimmy back at the helm, what a character and a gentleman,you dont need a PRO for a club when u have Jimmy around, hes always on the radio and local papers, fingers crossed.
