    I would rather have Scully at the Brandy than Fenlon. I hated both of them playing football but thats football fans for you. He has done a terrific job with Rovers with them playing football the right way. He named 6 Derry players in his team of the year - I think that's credit enough. Just because he says the league table doesn't lie - that hardly constitutes giving Derry no credit.

    If, by over-inflated sense of ourselves you mean that we want to appoint someone with a track record of managing at the top of a good League and experience of winning in Europe, then yes maybe we do.

    Fierce handy if a row breaks out though.

    Looking forward to hopefully drawing your lot later on in the Setanta. Would love a wee trip to South Tyrone.

    As for John Courteney, he cannot invest in Rovers without the say so of the membership. End of.

    KOH
    Maybe John Courtney intends buying out Ray Wilson's share of Rovers... or has Wilson agreed to give the Rovers members first option ??? hope the Rovers board have that tied down.

    They have, we've been buying Ray's shares back incrementally. There's is zero scope for a Courtenay to come along now and undo all the good work. Unless of course the turkeys vote for Christmas....

    To be fair you do seem to have a few punters on board who don't actually grasp what a members club is or how one should function!. I'd kick off those re-education classes you have been putting off pretty soon

    Or maybe their are a few punters on board who fully grasp what a members club is and thus worry about the fact that one member holds a large shareholding and is entitled to sell that to anyone he wants....unless as WAR says the other members of the board have a water tight agreement that excludes that.

    The only ones at Rovers who don't grasp the members club concept tend not to actually be members. Which I'd imagine is the same at Bohs.

    Calcio - there's no fears on that score.
