What has Mark Doran achieved at Slaughtneil to earn a shot at the county gig?

In the wise words of Jog2, who would you have then?

From Cahair O Kane today on twitter


Today marks 100 days since Mickey Harte stepped down as Derry manager.

Karl Lacey has dismissed speculation linking him to the gig.

Derry have ruled Rory Gallagher out.

Mark Doran appears to be the only candidate barring another late, left-field move like last year.

Slaughtneil lads would be happy to see him go I'm sure. Brought nothing fresh to the table besides playing a goalkeeper outfield which in the end beat them.

Surely Derry just go and get Gallagher and take it on the chin.

I believe there are still people on the county board pushing for Gallagher.

It would be extremely difficult for DCB to roll back on a public statement saying that Gallagher was out of the picture. From what I can gather, the majority of club nominations were for RG, so at the time they should have taken the decision to go for him as it had the backing of clubs and players.

At this stage would RG come back given the number of people that have been supposedly approached?

I don't necessarily feel its a major problem yet that a manager is not in place, especially if it is to be someone like Doran who will know the clubs and players anyway. In saying that, with Slaughtneil now out of the championship and Doran is lined up you'd expect an announcement fairly quickly.

If Derry want to challenge the top teams they have to go for RG. Any other appointment will see Derry slip away from the top teams. It's a horrible decision because there's gonna be some heat if they go for RG.

Gallagher should be given the job again the majority clubs voted for him,we will drop like a stone if it's anyone else,coacheslike wicklows  no 2 won't cut it I'm afraid,take the heat move on

Appoint RG and watch Derry GAA divide like never before. Some things are more important than winning a few matches lads.

How,I remember going to games in Division 3/4 with very little at them.If its like that with Gallagher there, sure be no different than a few yrs ago before we picked up the bandwagoners.
