Same guy that shared a brave and honest account of his experience of depression and how alcohol began to worsen his mental health?

Yeah he had a book about his battle with depression alright.

Declan Bonner new Erne Gaels manager.
Probably the most high profile club manager in Fermanagh in my memory
Wanted.  Forwards to take frees.
Not fussy.  Any sort of ability will be considered

It's a wonder he'd work with a team in the 6 counties after what was said in the Ill fated Ulster campaign for Na Rossa

Fair play to him, I see he already was the deputy so probably had a fair bit on his plate.

Not too often you would see an inter county manager operating at a very high level also in their professional career, obviously not in it for the mileage money.  The only similar example I can think of would be Pat Gilroy.

Ehh, hello. A Civil Servant and no time to themselves does not go together. That's why they join the Civil Service, they'll have all the time in the World to do their "Other Work"

Dooher is not a back office administrator who has little responsibility or accountability. He is the chief vet in the province and he didn't get that job by sitting on his hands and knees so I think that is unfair.

It's very unusual to see an intercounty manager who is not using the GAA as a career tool and both he and Logan deserve a lot of credit for that as it must be stressful and challenging trying to combine the two roles. You need not look any further than Logans recent health issues to realise the difficulties of combining a busy professional career with a county managers role.

Fair enough, prob was a bit harsh there but still they get some time off and Flexi time etc. I'm sure he will have a team around him to delegate the workload too. I reckon he'd have time for calls etc during working hours
