Joe Brolly

[Kidder81]

Latest podcast was a bit ott in terms of GAA exceptionalism, GAA has its share of fraud, spivs, spoofers, and wrong'uns - Joe's experience seems akin to Tom Cruise involvement in Scientology

And why so much hate for Micky Harte - referred to as 'that man' in the latest episode, a bit much

I used to find Brolly really interesting, he actually seems to be becoming slightly unhinged.

I can easily see him totally ostracised in the media world and an Ewan MacKenna type character in a few years

His podcasts are very good and popular albeit he is prone to tall tales. A far cry from Ewan McKenna.

Don't know an awful lot about McKenna or his background, but Brolly and him share a similar narcissistic trait, it's all about them and being the centre of attention even if that is offending people.

The Harte thing is Joe being Joe, saying something controversial so that he is "trending" on social media, there must be an adrenaline hit in it for people wired like Joe.

That's exactly  right.  As Oscar Wilde Said , "there's only one thing worse than being talked about , and that's not being talked about".

Brolly  has to be in the  limelight, regardless  of who suffers or who he insults.  He just needs to be centre of attention .  The Mickey Harte thing is just the latest  thing

It's fairly tiresome at this point. I see he will now not let his entrenched hatred towards Mickey Harte stop him attending games. He loves this Derry team now that they're going somewhere, the same group who told him to run on when he tried to enter the Clones changing rooms and bask in their glory after we beat Donegal 2 years ago.

Even though he said he wouldn't be attending any more Derry senior games when Harte was appointed, maybe he meant Derry senior hurlers

Where'd he say that?

Think the way he refers to him is very bad manners. I would not be a fan of Mickey Hartes but wouldn't address him like that.

Ok fair enough. Though I agree with him bout Harte... Tally as bad going to Kerry. Is why Cody didn't shake hands with Shefflin, trying to plot the downfall of his own county...

Uh... Brian Mullins Dublin? Rory Gallagher, Fermanagh? And I believe Fr Sean  Hegarty from Armagh have  all managed  Derry in the past.

Brolly just can't hide his hatred for all  things Tyrone.

[ONeill]

Joe also once claimed he was instrumental in getting Mullins to Derry.

Ach Joe's good craic, but you don't take him seriously.

I think you'll find it's Harte he can't stand, has been consistent on that for a long time. A lot of Tyrone people not impressed in what Hartes done either...

[Wildweasel74]

Brolly said he wouldn't be back at a Senior game with Harte in charge,that didn't last long, seen him in Castlebar, Think with what he said of Glass and McGuigan. Alot of the Derry team have little time for him.

[reddgnhand]

I wonder does he bring up payments when the 93 team get together. Fair amount of that team have managed teams in Tyrone and not for nothing.

[laceer]

Adrian McGuckin described my feelings on Harte managing Derry perfectly on the GAA social a while back. Great coach amd will do a good job with Derry, but he is a Tyrone legend, and seeing him wearing the Derry badge just doesn't sit right.

Brolly contradicts himself regularly, but is a good speaker and his podcast is entertaining.

That there are enough good Derry men with that tradition without lining Hartes pockets... a cartel of managers doing the rounds... sure you know what he said.

He is getting increasingly cringier every time I hear him, just watched his Late Late appearance and actually felt sorry for Michael Darragh MacAuley being put into that situation with Brolly ranting away about him as if he wasn't there.  Joe is just embarrassing himself every time he opens his mouth these days.
