Don’t worry, those gate-keepers will still be telling us that he’s the right man for us, and that we can’t afford anyonr better anyway etc., etc.

Posts like this are why Irish football is crocked, the people who actually invest their time and money in the game here are subjected to pot shots and vilification by those who superficially follow football.

This will be the same post Kenny as it was before him. 


Easy now big man, I’ve been going to Ireland games since 1990 - is that “superficial” enough for you?? Maybe I should’ve been born a decade earlier and been there for some of Eoin Hands reign, too, to make me more staunch in your eyes?

  I was referring to the LOI supporters who have holier than thou attitudes and act like anyone who doesn’t go to LOI games is a charlatan who doesn’t deserve an opinion. My county will have a team from next season, and I’ll be looking forward to going to support them. So, maybe in future ask for clarity about a comment or, alternatively, wind your f**king neck in. 

So what your saying is from next season you'll actually become a stakeholder in Irish football 👍good to hear. If we can convince more people (and we are going by this years attendance) then we'll be one step closer to creating a sustainable football industry in this country. Until we do that, we're going to struggle massively. The PL is no longer a viable pipeline for our players 


What I’m saying is that you took a comment out of context and shot your mouth off. If you had any decency, you’d retract that, but quite clearly that’s beyond you, smart man.


Edit* I must credit you, though, with proving the existence of the exact kind of dismissive and sanctimonious gobsh*tes I was talking about. Fair play.



Out of context? There was a bizzare attack on LOI fans which you contributed too. There are many people to blame for the current ills of Irish football, but it certainly isn't the people who are actively giving their time and money to improve it.

LOI fans didn't appoint Kenny, many don't rate him (speak to some Rovers fans).

100%.

I'd say him & Browne should both be considered ahead of Knight.

How many senior goals have either Idah or Troy scored?

At any level.

Look it up. Parrott has scored 4 in the green shirt so far.

Bin the whole lot of them (outfield players and manager included) bar Collins, Cullen, Sykes and O'Dowda. Smallbone and Ferguson hopefully have a future in an ireland squad with a competent manager.

You forgot to mention McGrath who you basically said is sh*te. 

I mean he wasn't the worst player tonight... there see I can be nice. He wasn't the creative genius CM billed by irish social media that will unlock defences though lots of dribbling a few feet then passing sidewards.

He was POTM and created plently. I don't know where you were reading that about him in the irish meadia or social media. 

Lol if that's a creative performance then I despair. He didn't do anything the much maligned Hendrick or Hourihane can't do and I think Hourihane is a waste of a shirt generally. Hendrick is pretty meh but is the much better passer of the ball. 

Either you didn't watch the game or you closed your eyes everytime he got the ball. Cant take you seriously of you didn't think McGrath played well tonight. Our best player followed by O'Dowda

Watched the whole game unfortunately.  He's just not all that, the only reason I go on about him is because he gets loads of praise for being ineffectual and its insufferable. If anything he did is tonight is creative then people don't know what a creative midfielder is.

It seems to be an issue at Wigan. I've recently seen their fans complaining about how the club is signing players they don't need and then not playing them.

He's never managed at a level as good as that tbf so would be a surprise if he did land a job in L2.

The Scottish Premiership is definitely better than League Two.

Based his reign on Scottish 2nd tier seeing as he took them down.

Yeah, but he also reached The Scottish Cup final. 1 win away from being Robert Martínez.

I was actually at that game. Terrible from start to finish from Celtic and would have had no complaints if Dunfermline had won it.

Main memory from the game was I wore a t-shirt and when the sun disappeared behind the stand I was freezing. Nothing else I can really remember it was that bad.
