    There is a failed builder in Dublin tonight with egg all over his face and Im not talking about Dustin the Turkey.

    Collins is lucky he is well connected about Donnybrook because he simply is not well suited for TV

    The only reason he is on the telly is because of posts like yours. He gets people talking!

    He's still a goon tho.

    I think he is excellent on TV if sometimes I don't agree with his views.

    Good to have a bit of debate.

    Too many Pat Morleys spoil the broth.
    Yeah man, they call gambling a disease, but it's the only disease where you can win a bunch of money.

    Is he well connected or just cheap?

    Since the Celtic tiger no builder comes cheap

    Im sure he is very well connected through Steve and his property development friends. He seems to be very well known. Pity hes so stupid though.

    He did Drogheda a big favour by telling them they are rubbish. Great for motivation.

    What´s this bullsh!t about ´He gets people talking sure ? Last time I looked, RTE2 was a TV channel - not a radio phone-in show.

    Seriously - what benefit to RTE is there in having people talking negatively about one of their presenters ? Anyone who thinks Roddy has the power to single-handedly pull-in incremental viewers to RTE´s coverage of anything is even more deluded than Roddy himself..

    He´s right - there is a campaign to keep him out of the Eircom League. It´s called ´quality control´. He´s sh!te, everyone knows he´s sh!te, so hence he can´t get a job.

    There´s also a conspiracy to stop me playing for Barcelona and nailing Angelina Jolie...

    Apparently he's had a bit of a lovers' tiff with his property developer mates who were scouring the western world looking for his next muse. He might be out of the game even longer now. My heart bleeds for him.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    That is seriously good news. Hopefully it is time now and he blows the candle out on dream of managing a LOI team again. Seriously someone should suggest China to him, and i'm being dead serious as well. Korea, Tibet, Japan, just somewhere far away. We have suffered enough at this stage, its someone else turn surely

    I fear it actually is the latter

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    How well would that English club have done against Dynamo Kiev when Shoddy was managing them?

    Oh yes, they would have lashed them out of it, would of made the group stages, beaten Barca at the Nou Camp and lifted the trophy...of course.

    I actually thought he was doing well on MNS there for a while.
    I have not being so intensly gripped watching football as I was during that match for a long time-to start yapping about stats was self indulgent and totally missed the point.
    Richardson cares about Irish football but Roddy displayed a horrible self absorption.

    Drogs wore them down & made Kiev loose confidence in themselves. By the end of it Drogs looked so much better than Kiev - it was amazing to see an Irish team doing that to a team of such quality.

    TO TELL THE TRUTH IS REVOLUTIONARY

    The ONLY foot.ie user with a type of logic named after them!

    All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.

    DK didn't lose confidence, they got far too much of it. At 2-1 up they put on a young player that had never played for the club at that level. They nearly paid the price for their cockiness and their lack of respect.
