You make it sound like we were doing Roberston a favour, or he asked to be released...

He was considered to be in breach of contract, so we sacked him. Whether he goes to Dunfermline or not is incidental.

He'd completely lost the support of the fans, so was the right decision for the Board to take. A solid start by the new hands on deck.

Derry City are sitting in a very serious situation now.

This next appointment is a very crucial appointment. You need this next manager to do well or you could end up as one of those clubs who swap and change managers every 6 months and end up with results on par with last season and possibly worse

Insightful.

Hmm... interesting. What exactly did he do.

He's a horrible little runt of a man in my eyes anyway.

I'm not privvy to the discussions, but I presume the fact he needed to spend so much tieme in Scotland and had to be summonsed back suggests that he is unwilling or unable to give the job the time it needs.

His recent appearances as a Commentator on Setanta will probably have undermined any defence he may seek to mount. If he was able to do football punditry, he should've been able to manage his team.

I think he could not handle the pressure of managing such a big club with an ageing side, he was wounded inside and needed to be Physically relaxed and cleasened.

I think your posts have a significantly diminishing return in the humour and value stakes.

Don't worry about my posts, they are designed to help you,to make you a better person like me. I feel i need to help materialistic, Greyhound loving money chasing Derry folk, you are lost, and i am here to help. Through intense physical training, and focus of the mind, we can make the world a better place and get you out more from your bedroom.

I don't see why he would leave Bohs with their new found wealth though. Unless the club wants him out (wouldn't surprise me..).

I'm not convinced by Connors. I'd take Rico over him any day.
