Next Manager?

I don’t know if this has been posted already, I hear Leo has turned it down and all other candidates who were interviewed have ruled themselves out because of the conditions attached, so we are back to square 1.
It will probable be advertised in the window of Skillfinders this evening!!!

my money is on Roddy collins

Sorry, Redie, but chances is a plural word. Therefore it should be ARE very slim. Pay attention and put away that Beano.

The Special One could be available next week if they lose in Waterford.

It's obvious any manager or coach worth his salt has a position with a club at this time of the year. (And probably a few who are not). It's worse than square 1, as Leo will not be able to keep up the temporary coaching for much longer.
It looks like the MC have f**ked up big time. Time to eat humble pie and offer Rob a contract. Going by the 3 games we have played, he wasn't doing to bad with the squad.

It seems this job is a poisoned chalice, it appears to suit the merconary type of manager who comes and uses the position as a stepping stone, and does his own thing ie; not being bullied by MC. This situation will not change untill management structure is completly overalled.

think we need to get chants, banners anything that has the message "bring back rob"

**cc united** · 30/03/2007, 3:03 PM

do you honestly think bringin back rob is the answer......in my opinion he'd use it as a steppin stone aswell so how is that the answer.......go local i reckon.

**Believer** · 30/03/2007, 3:25 PM

Who is available locally with relevant experience?:

**cc united** · 30/03/2007, 3:31 PM

while we are on the topic of experience did rob have experience of eircom soccer.......the answer is no he didnt so why is that relevant now.

ah c'mon

what manager since Keely have we ever had that came into the job with eircom experience. maybe don but sure that was a disaster.
McDonald, Connor, Cassidy, McInally, Reid, Mullen, Cotterill, Sanchez, McStay

A manager with Eircom experience would be good but who's that going to be ? any manager that did any good here was recommended by someone else. if the mc are doing it themselves this time then who knows what'll happen.

Word travels fast !!

That rumor was put out on Sunday (April 1st).
I hear its whittled down too 3 and they are expected to announce it this week. Dunno how true it is though.

**SeaniesRedArmy** · 04/04/2007, 9:32 AM

Anyone remember the guy that was on Big Ron Manager?
The manager who got all ****ed off when Big Ron came into the club (Peterborough United). He then left and dissapeared off the football radar.
Well lads guess where he might be coming.................

Although i got this from a totaly unreliable source.
Make what of it you wish.
