QuoteHey Demoshield we could do without that kind of heart attack stuff on a Friday morning!
as per latest rumours.
Roddy Collins: born August 7, 1961 in Dublin
Bohemians: He managed the club for 96 league games - winning 46, drawing 23 and losing 27. They scored 136 times, conceded 81 and kept 41 clean sheets.
Carlisle United: Appointed as manager of Carlisle United in July 2001.Collins was sacked in August 2003 after Carlisle had lost their first four games of the season
Dublin City: In July 2004 he took over as manager of Dublin City,[6] but left in November 2004 three weeks from the end of the season, just hours before a crucial game, to manage Shamrock Rovers
Shamrock Rovers: As manager of Shamrock Rovers, Collins struggled both on and off the pitch. Following a points deduction because the club presented fraudulant documents to the FAI licensing, after a season of poor results and in-fighting at the club, Shamrock Rovers faced relegation. His decision to take part in a charity boxing event in the midst of the campaign only served to further enrage the Rovers support, who questioned his commitment. His contract was terminated by Rovers in November 2005 as the club were relegated for the first time ever.After losing a play-off to his previous club Dublin City.
Roddy is due to start work next Monday 21/04/08. It is hoped himself & his team will have dressing rooms etc, under new stand plastered within one month !!
Allegedly.

Why not wait 'till we see if it is to be him before we start moaning?
& If it is to be him, give him a chance before the boo boys start!
jeff kenna????
"Allegedly" but id settle for Lord Lucan at this stage.
We are the Galway Boys Stand up and make some noise"
Look Damo you are right in saying wait until it's him before we start moaning , but bottom line I don't think he is up to the job hey I could be very wrong but this is just a start for him it's the bottom of the ladder chance I will see if I can cut in Eircom league then i will get offers from England and so on .
What we need is someone who has been around the block , a winner , been there done that and Kenna is not that man for me .
The only person for the job was RICO for me but who were the other 31 people who put their names in the hat we don't know and if Kenna was the best of the lot then we are in big trouble .........
There was never the slightest chance of Rico joining GUFC. We are not a big club. we could not afford to pay him. Simple as that. A little reality check needed by a lot of people IMO.
How much do ye expect to be paying yere manager.
Rico was on 80k a year with us
Jeff Kenna wont come Cheap and he wont sign a one year deal.

80 GRAND
Fine with me , pay the man I would say otherwise we will be back in division 1 next season it's very simple really .
According to court papers Bohemians were paying Sean Connor 100k per year plus bonuses. I doubt Rico was working for less than that. If he was his next employer will be paying a hell of a lot more. Why not pay everyone 200k a year & while were at it pay the supporters €20 a game. Guaranteed a full house every time. Obviously we have no shortage of money. Nobody knows anything about Kenna or how much he will cost. Kidderminster must be paying him a fortune thoughOh & our previous manager has the entire, meagre, budget for the year spent already.
It was 80k. Mathews is on the sameAccording to court papers Bohemians were paying Sean Connor 100k per year plus bonuses. I doubt Rico was working for less than that.

“I am hopeful that I will get the chance to impress them next week because I’m really keen to get into coaching,” said Kenna.
Didnt get the City Tribune but their ad on GBFM says United to appoint ex irish international next week. Rico has a few caps and would come cheaper than Jeff despite whats written here
