Coleman played 15 minutes under Sean Connor as a sub against Derry City (we were 4-0 down when he came on).
He played more minutes under Rob McDonald than under Sean.

yeah, the first caller talks about him. thats it really
he was never in the first team under connor, i heard it wasnt even connor who recognised that he could do a job for us.
Cork City never fail to amaze. One would think they were in enough trouble without appointing that knacker.
To be fair to Connor,I'd say had he stayed he would have played Seamie in the 2007 season
Verified here.
Connor takes over at Bohs.
Article says he left on approx the 2nd of November.
Seamies Debut for Rovers.
Scoring an O/G dated 12th of November,
Did Connors not bring him on as sub when we were defending a corner with two minutes to go and he scored an og?
As far as I remember Seamie started for Rovers for the first time against UCD in Belfield. It was Sean Conor's last game as manager but he was not in charge, Gareth Gorman was. Open to correction on that though.
Great to see him doing so well
Who is this Connors people keep refering to? Must be a friend of young Cooke.
Im sure it was dessie cawley and leo tierney who gave seamie his break away to longford and rang michael toolan the next day to get him signed up as he only had two weeks left on his contract, but it was that s***head connor that brought him into the club.
he came on against derry in the showgrounds when they beat us early in 2007. then started away to longford and the rest is history

Corrected. Well done.
All that matters is that hes at Everton now,and doing really well....he may have been signed by Connor,and played one game under him,but he got his major chance in the first team when Connor left and Des and Leo were in temporary charge.
SEAMUS COLEMAN is at the right club to fulfil his potential.
That is the opinion of Sligo Rovers manager, Paul Cook, who sanctioned the defender’s January switch to Everton.

"When I had him at Sligo, Birmingham were interested. Steve Bruce asked me how good Seamus was and I told him I thought he can go on to be better than Steve Finnan. He's got that much potential.''

His first game in a Sligo shirt was in a pre season game against Galway United if I remember correctly
