Buy a programme and add 1 year onto Dermot McArdles age. He's the new Couchie Duffy!!

I used to go to all the matches (70s/80s/90s) but don't get to the games so much anymore and haven't bought a programme since the Cork game - not sure if I can find it now. Apologies if my request is unreasonable.

What about your own club men ?

Loughman?
The 'other' McEnaney?

Declan only a few years into Management and needs to prove himself at senior club level ie win us the fecking championship!! He'll be a canditate if it was up but I'd hope he'd pass it up.
Eamon may be looking a job He's a very clever manager and like banty, would be very organised. He'd be better tactically than Banty but may not get the same level of intensity or passion.

I've a feeling Banty may stay on though.

I don't rate McEneany at all.

I think he'd be a terrible move for you - and he had a shot before too ...

What about other clubs? Scotstown or Magheracloone? Got any candidates?

Maghercloone would have had muostly outsiders and thats a tough job! Scotstwon would have big Gerry McCarville who was with Banty in his first years and Prob got him the job. He's alot too prove too.

Mick O'Dowd has a good reorcd and won with Cavan Gaels but that should be a given in any year. Thye should be looking to Ulster but never made it.

Is it Mickey McConville from Cross? He's very highly rated by those who have had him. Untried at County level though and I think we'd need someone who has a track record outside clubs. Gerry McEntee had Dublin U21's or Minors, would be a candiatate.

If Banty does go, I'd reckon he will be picking his replacement.

Firstly I'd say hard luck to Monaghan after last weekand and its a pity they are out of the championship, whil eI may have pointed out a certain way how (I believe) they play, I dont think that theres much wrong with it and I wish Derry and my own team could play more like it.

Hope you can get Mcenaney to stay as hes most def a fantastic manager.
If not maybe youd consider Frank Mc - imo hed be better than what yer listing here well

Frank McEneaney?

Frank McEneaney?

Jaysus, he might take thebandit with him as his right hand man!!

JMohan · July 16, 2009, 04:42:39 PM

Suppose it's hardly Frank McGuigan!

lynchbhoy · July 16, 2009, 04:54:54 PM

Frank McEneaney yes - well I think he has done ok with Louth
he is certainly better than a couple of the aforementioned names imo

JMohan · July 16, 2009, 05:26:12 PM

Eamon?

Eamon?

shite
Eamonn yes !

JMohan · July 16, 2009, 06:50:41 PM

That would be a step backwards for Monaghan!

youd know what a real giant backward step was if you appointed the wrong candidate !
at least Eamonn Mc has a bit of a clue at what he's doing
