aparantly so, having a great laugh on our forum today, apparently roddy was on the radio and he basically said the team couldn't play Patterson because he creates nothing and can only score :pac:. Said they can't afford to carry Patrick McEleney as well....What's the story with Rory Patterson and Roddy. He was an unused sub against us in Oriel Park (which was bizarre given Derry needed goals and eventually lost 3-0) and I see he wasn't even in the squad for the last game against Limerick. Has he had a fallen out with Mr Collins?
he was meant to have had a falling out a few days ago with them.
long may his reign continue

There's actually a report just gone up on RTE website with his comments.aparantly so, having a great laugh on our forum today, apparently roddy was on the radio and he basically said the team couldn't play Patterson because he creates nothing and can only score :pac:. Said they can't afford to carry Patrick McEleney as well....

Collins said: “The problem is, we're not creating enough chances and that's what his job is. He is a finisher.
“He doesn't give much other contribution to the team. He doesn't work hard. He doesn't chase the ball down, get it back for you or hold it up particularly well. But he is an exceptional finisher.
“I don't see the reason to have a finisher in the team until we start creating some chances so that is the thinking behind that one. Until we get it down and start creating chances for someone to put away, there is no point wasting a player in the team.”
"That's what makes you a great team. We've got one part 100 per cent correct. We've conceded one goal from open play in the whole season."
Ouch! Wouldn't imagine Patterson is too impressed with the comments in bold! Also, Collins speaking through his hoop again re goals conceded. Says they only conceded one goal from open play all season yet Dundalk scored two from open play against them in their 3-0 win. Surely they weren't the only two goals scored in open play against them all season?0 -

Their poster for next week's game is quality too.
City's Good Friday poster got a mention on TV3's Ireland AM last week. This is the kind of publicity that really helps us. The likes of MNS/Soccer Republic are great, but they're generally preaching to the converted. These kind of things portray the clubs to a new audience. A few seasons ago, there was a feature about City on Nationwide on RTÉ and it got a lot of the city talking about us.
Another couple of good posters done for Bohs tomorrow night. Including a version as Gaeilge, which has been well received by the Gaelic community in Cork.
