Anyone come on a club being asked to pay one of their own clubmen X  000's to coach their senior team? A club near me is doing this and I couldn't believe one of their own would ask it never mind the club agree to pay it. I'm talking a mediocre enough team too. Is this now normal?

Not sure it is the norm within home clubs and their own members.

There was a very high profile one in Derry, who is still on the gravy train now.

You should never charge your own club for time.

Totally agree but was just wondering is this now a thing that's happening more frequently as I never heard of it before

What are the chances of Jim Gavin coaching another county just to show he can prove himself beyond the county with unlimited resources and euros?

Most expected Donegal to be seeking for a new manager but not that soon.

The new trend is players forcing the manager out. First Limerick, then Donegal.

Galway hurlers some years ago and a few others too.
If manager hasn't the dressing room he may move on.
It's not like pro/semi pro sport where you can sell off players and bring in others

Colm Collins stepped down as Clare manager last night after 10 years in charge. A servant to.his county.  Guided Clare from division 4 in seven seasons in Division 2 until relegated this year.  Also brought Clare to two AI Quarter Finals.

Players have a lot of power nowadays. A lot of egoes in squads.

Usually in squads who never light many fires unfortunately.
