Kenny and Rovers part ways

SHAMROCK Rovers and former Derry City manager Stephen Kenny have parted company, a statement on the Rovers’ website confirmed.

Less than nine months after taking charge of the Tallaght club, Kenny is no longer the manager of Shamrock Rovers FC.

Kenny joined Rovers from Derry City in December as Michael O’Neill’s replacement but has been unable to replicate the success of the Northern Ireland man at Tallaght.
