Tierney can be rested now so will help with injuries. Saliba looks the real deal.

Brian Clough didn't need £1bn to win the European Cup. Man City still haven't won it.
Brian Clough had big spending power of that time. Bought an expensive player and first million pound player. Good recruitment part of his success.

Saw the clip of him getting Stuart the photographer giving the pre match speech v Spurs. Thought that was class.

GAA Discussion / Re: County Manager Merry go round
« on: July 28, 2022, 10:42:04 AM »You would think that if Jimmy McGuinness doesn't go back into Donegal now that he will not be returning to county management in the near future.
The position is vacant at a time when he has no full time coaching position and they have a bunch of players who have underachieved in the last few years. They probably lack a bit of leadership on and off the field especially now that Murphy is a fading force. On the other hand if he goes back to GAA he would probably be perceived as a failure as a soccer coach and he may question why he spent 8 years getting ready to go into soccer management only to turn his back on it without any success. Its strange that a LOI team wouldn't take a punt on him given his track record in management.
Although McGuinness was an ultra defensive coach and entirely changed the way gaelic football was played, I think he is also a pragmatic manager and would simply play the best type of football that could get him success. In whatever form that takes.
Is he not coaching Derry City youths?

Sean Cavanagh's Laochra Gael shows exactly what he's like.
He’s atrocious as a pundit tho. And comes across as a w**ker to be honest
It's still on tg4 player. He was disappointed after winning all ireland as he didn't get motm.

« on: July 25, 2022, 06:26:07 PM »Wonder will he continue as a schoolmaster though.
Bound to be at retirement age for that carry on
He has his years long done but got caught out in economic crash.
Yes forgot about that. Wasn’t that thrown up to him on TV a few years ago ?
Mr Brolly
Don't think it's right to bring up stuff like that - loads got hit by the economic crash in 2007 onwards.
Wasn't a criticism, just saying reason why he hasn't retired before now.
