League of Ireland legend and Mirror Sport columnist has the final word every Friday
It’s not all sweetness and light behind the scenes at the champions as the club and the management team try and iron out a budget for next season.
I remember a particular conversation with my manager, Pat Fenlon, who told us that the club was going to back him and take Shels to a higher level. He was up front and open about it and I thought ‘yes, do it’. It was exactly what we needed to progress and become a proper force in Europe. Rovers need to act fast because Derry will continue to pump money into their squad and Shelbourne are about to, with their new Turkish owner Acun Ilicali.
It won’t be long before a League of Ireland club sells a player for €1 million, so it makes perfect sense to invest in players. All the gear in the club shop, blue. All the training gear, the jackets, blue. What am I missing? I don’t mind a bit of blue for the second strip, but they’re the Reds!Pick a side. You can't be both.Next time I’m at Tolka, I’ll be looking for a quiet word with whoever makes these decisions.I had to laugh this week when I heard of yet another failed appeal to overturn a red card, with Sam Curtis of St Pat’s now banned for the FAI Cup semi-final.
