OTB Football · THE LOI POD: Derry City saga rumbles on as Lynch departs, but what happens next for James McClean? · 5 Aug 2026 podcast

Like, he has absolutely ploughed money into this. voice-verified

Is it a case where, did he give Tiernan Lynch maybe too much free reign? voice-verified

Because you mentioned this over the last season. voice-verified

Well, since Tiernan Lynch took charge, it just seemed to be the squad, he was almost attempting to recycle the squad every single transfer window. voice-verified

There was like several players going out, several players coming in, and that continued in every transfer window. voice-verified

Was he given too much free reign by Philip O'Doherty? voice-verified

Yeah, and I did mention, I'm going to come to you, Vinnie, in just a moment, just on this, Gareth, because you did mention about the architecture and the structures of the club. voice-verified

Was the Mark Connolly appointment as director of football, was that the first kind of signal that we saw that Philip O'Doherty was starting to put that architecture, that structure at the club that you speak about? voice-verified

And just because you mentioned as well about, you touched on the academy there in your first answer, and that's been a big thing for Derry City over the years is bringing through young local players from the likes of Ryan McBride to James McLean and so on. voice-verified

Is that something that's missing as well? voice-verified

Somebody who's over the academy and who's ensuring that there's, you know, maybe one or two at least graduating from the youth side into the senior side over the seasons? voice-verified

Vinnie, from the perspective of somebody who's managed at the top level, where do you think it's gone wrong for Tiernan Lynch on the pitch? voice-verified

Or did it ever go right? voice-verified

and that's fine but I just wish him well and I hope I made that point really clear good fella good fella yeah I know that flag I think you referred to was the one about Tiernan Lynch worse than Maggie Thatcher and I think a lot of Derry fans I saw react to that said it was absolutely disgusting voice-verified

And you'd have to say that the people who decide to make that probably aren't fully educated in all the horrific things that Maggie Thatcher did, both in the UK and Ireland, and a flag like that definitely has no place in the League of Ireland. voice-verified

Definitely, I would have to say there. voice-verified

So where does... voice-verified

like they obviously have to appoint a new manager, Gareth, but like there's still going to be issues there that you've been talking about. voice-verified

So who, where does responsibility for those problems lie and how are they fixed? voice-verified

I'm not looking for like a big, but like there's somebody here that needs to bear some responsibility for, you know, another, I wouldn't say, but maybe a poor appointment. voice-verified
