I hear @FabrizioRomano is readying the tweet to announce James Clarke signing a bumper contract @derrycityfc
Just looking there and wondering how much longer does Oran Kearney get before his starts coming under scrutiny? 5 wins in 29 games. Has a huge budget in comparison to the other PT clubs. Surely he’s seriously underachieving?? Must have a few media boys in his pocket deflecting?
Higgins took over when the club were bottom of the table. Had no training base, a poor pitch and took them to 2 cup finals and within touching distance of the league.
Lynch inherited a squad competing for trophies and has had the biggest budget in the club’s history.
"He thought it needed open-heart surgery, it definitely didn't"
"Until they get an architect in, we are going to see this up and down...in place..."
Derry City legend Gareth McGlynn spoke on yesterday's LOI Pod about the club's decision to part ways with manager Tiernan Lynch following an underwhelming spell over the past 18 months.

Instead of building on it, he ripped up the team with huge player turnover, with lots of very costly failures. Out of the 27 winnings games, how many were moments of magic by Duffy, who had a wonder season last season.
Derry in the process of signing a defender from the Finnish league. All being well will be announced soon…
Interview focussed on players in, surely the line of questioning should have then been directed at how many players he’s brought in during his tenure and how many players couldn’t wait to get out. Getting a free pass as regards questioning, others got it much tougher
Huge news coming out of shels!
Shelbourne FC can confirm the departure of head coach Joey O’Brien.
Everyone at the club thanks Joey for his huge contribution to Shels, including helping deliver the 2024 League of Ireland title and European football.

Ben Doherty to Coleraine is in the final stages to being completed by all accounts. TL looks to be doing everything, and given free rein, to get rid of all local players. Good job Mickey Duffy won player of the year or he’d be looking over his shoulder!
Weathers unreal here lads ☀️ Phil’s left me a few extra quid behind the bar, take another few days off and report back on Monday. Plenty of time to prepare for Bohs #9daysoff
TL as Derry manager is done. Just a matter of when, not if. If he’s holding out for £££ then he’s even more foolish than he portrays. Managers jobs are limited and when each passing game he’s making himself look even more limited and out of his depth.
If what I’m hearing is true, the most ill disciplined manager in LoI (u20s) has received a 10 game ban (should have been an indefinite ban). At what point does the club a) address what happened & b) get rid of him?
Ciaran Kilduff at the Brandywell tonight. Putting in the required effort to watch opposition playing. Lynch finds it that difficult to drive to Owenbeg he needs every weekend off. Lazy manager breeds poor performances/results
