Declan Bonner has stepped down as Donegal manager.

Malachy O'Rourke bound to be tempted at that role. Donegal have the talent if they can just harness it.
Murphy will depart under the next managers tenure but i thought there were some really excellent forwards in their U20 side earlier this year.
Im convinced had they got past Tyrone they would have won the U20 All Ireland

Serious potential for Donegal if they get this appointment right.


Keelan  Dunleavey and Bobby McGettigan was the stand out forwards for Donegal U20s will be interesting to see can they make the step to senior.  Malachy O'Rourke would look like a good fit for Donegal if he makes himself available.

Getting serious coin at Glen and less pressure

Declan Bonner has stepped down as Donegal manager.

Looked to be going places in the beginning. But got more and more scared of throwing off the shackles as his tenure proceeded.
Fear of losing got the better of him in the end.

That 2020 loss to Cavan changed something in the mindset.

They'd been playing nice, open football throughout his tenure up to that point, but for the second year in a row, when the chips were down, they were physically outworked and outfought by a team that simply wanted it more.

Since then it's been brutal to watch, even arguably in games they won. Just tentative, risk-averse, mediocrity.

It was a natural conclusion. But Declan B kept Donegal solidly a Div 1/Top 8 team. At same time, you'd never feel Declan's Donegal would trouble Kerry or Dublin last couple of years.

It's a big job in a county who has won the All-Ireland in the last 10 years.

Yeah, attractive enough job I think.

Good players and a bit of potential.

A lot of managers/coaches would be interested you'd think.

...has O'rourke told you this personal or is that just another sweeping assumption on your behalf?

Ive often wondered how people "know" what club managers are getting paid

Very true. A lot of pressure comes with a role as an intercounty manager.
