If god wanted us to play football in the clouds he would have put grass up there!
Who's the contracted player? I'm guessing Wexler for obvious reasons?Originally Posted by Tallanted
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
But apparently we have a very good budget. Sad news. Tony G was disappointed
feck...
Daire Doyle is the player

not a bad base i suppose. will be good in the first division.
Do you have a source for this?
No official but i think the vice chairman telling me is good enough.
Vinny vinny vinny...

its all on shannonside
we are going up
Thanks for eveything Alan. Unblievable loyalty, unbelievable glory, unbelievably service. Proper Town legend. I hope something will be done by the club, the county council and the town itself to honor him.
Yup, true Legend and Hero. Thanks for everything Alan.
Gutted, I was always a fan. I really don't think we'll strike gold third time out with a new manager.
Above all, I'd like to thank Alan Matthews for his unwavering honesty and loyalty through-out his time with us, especially during this past nine months or so. To be fair, he was probably assured of budgets and all and sundry, but what was it worth given this season's turmoil and the fact that we never had enough done to get a straight license in three years.
I think it is going to be very hard to gain promotion now. Rabbits out of hats time....

Strachan:"Velocity"
sad news if its true.thanks alan for so many good times, which far outweighed the bad.
he could have walked away long ago ,but stuck it out and fought with his players to the bitter end.for that and the fantastic cup wins he'll always be a town legend... THE town legend in fact
.whos next?
dark times ahead

All we can do is thank the man for the memories. I respect his decision and wish him all the best wherever he goes
Ever get the feelin' you have been cheated?
Just to repeat all positive things said above about Mathews... even more worried for the future now... but surely things can't get much worse.
I wouldnt be so sure

I was never his greatest fan but the level of dedication commitment time and most importantly THIS season in particular Loyalty he showed to this club was over and beyond the call of duty so Respect to him for that!
Oh by the way give Trevor the nod and Vinny as assistant!
stephen, stephen, stephen
In fairness to matthews, he has shown brilliant loyalty to this club, and that must be commended for that. Personally never liked him, thought he was tactically inept, played too narrow minded and defensively up to the end of this season and had nowhere near the same charisma/rapport with the fans that he should have.
So the search begins for a new manager. Vinny should be a contender, afaik he has started on his coaching badges, and is well regarded in longford. Stephen Kelly might be another one that might enter the equation, and perhaps Trevor Crolly. **** it, might dust down the auld C.V myself, and Bosco as my assistant
