Down Club Hurling & Football

[rosskarr]

No decision on the senior football management will be made to senior management to early August.

Bit disappointing but not surprising.

Minors?

Have they no shame to be staying on?A sh-t show set-up from start to finish.
As the weeks progress it'll all come out from the players as to how bad it was.Watch this space.

Mooney has given his view on this season(might be difficult to believe it all  though).Others will follow...Management should do the decent thing and stop the rot that has developed even before the current set-up came on board.

[ck]

If this runs much longer then it'll be into the farcical situation that happened last year where a manager was appointed too late.

[Smurfy123]

He hasn't given his view on the season
Was it the managements fault when he was through 1v1 in the last minute against Meath to win it and fisted onto the crossbar
3 points up against Offaly with 2 minutes to go
1-1 v Galway after 15 minutes and playing into a Gael force breeze and he gives the ball away Galway score a goal
Is that the managers fault?

Agree the County Board need to make a decision asap
Does it have to wait until the next monthly county board meeting?

[Truth hurts]

After listening to that, what manager would come in anyway?

Need to pay unfortunately - I used to listen to his Podcast on Joe was decent enough, only thing he done that annoyed me was talk about his All-Ireland Minor with Laois any chance he could get

I listened to him on the Joe pod too.
He had good guests who were worth listening to even though Parky & his mate from Derry are a pair of head melters.
I wouldn't pay to listen to him though & honestly Darren O'Sullivan is much better now as his replacement.

After listening to that interview we're in an worse place than first thought. Mooney saying the set up was a shambles all year from communication to the players, to a lack of s+c programs, to training being very poor.
Players obviously are to blame as well for what looks like a terrible attitude and lack of buy in to the management.

If Mooney is speaking for the majority of the squad it's hard to see how the management can go back next year and expect things to be any different.

as usual in these cases there's a free version doing the rounds on what's app

Is it not the right thing to do to keep him involved?? Who else is going to take the role or indeed do any better? Take the current u20 setup in with him this year and it's a smooth transition next year for Laverty to take the post.

That would be a smart move. Laverty, whilst brilliant in his own right could learn from James for a year.

Learn what exactly?The rot has set in with the current Management and bringing others in won't improve this.

Mooney's interview versus Forker's podcast one.Chalk and Cheese.I had aired my views with our County Delegate earlier in the month and he said at the weekend there was similar chat at last Thursday's CB Meeting.

It's hard to ignore the sentiment from Mooney. The entire set up sounds like a shambles and it's pretty clear that's why he and others walked.
It's hard to justify keeping James if this is how the players feel. Players should always be consulted as part of any process IMO.

See burren seconds dumped out in the first round of premier reserves championship tonight having only scored 3 points.
