Wouldn't expect anyone like Davy Fitz etc to be in contention .
Mark Landers  , Brian Whelahan , David Herity and Dan Shanahan have been some of the names nominated by clubs apparently.

Laois man

Brian Whelahan? Great player but record as manager is shocking do clubs look at this or just go for names?

Herity the only one there worthy of consideration

The rest

No thanks

Landers 😂

Which Club nominated Landers

😂😂😂

Can the clubs be collectively trusted to nominate the right candidates. Some of the lads mentioned there wouldn't train a dog.
Better off they selected a committee to do it similar to the last few times. Can the Co Board be trusted to pick the right candidate from the clubs selection?
Id prefer to get someone with some level of County management experience. Going for a big name former player with no experience would be a disaster.

Surely asking the clubs for to nominate is just optics? Can't imagine it will be taken seriously.
It'd be like an AGM where everyone is proposed & seconded and then you move on to the next person!
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled.......

These nominations are just going through the motion scenarios . Unlikely many of them would be serious contenders .
Gleeson up in Antrim hasn't confirmed whether he's staying on or not . Mightn't be the worst shout . Another guy I'd like is James O'Conner the ex Ballyhale manager who is with Midelton this year .

Colm Bonnar getting the bullet with Tipperary last night. Wondering will that be a name that will come up with Laois if no standout names emerge?

Spiritof86

Very surprised with that . Hasn't been given a chance there at all .

Wouldn't have rated him hugely.
Got given out to here before for describing him as a bit of a journeyman....
But
If we were ever to give him the job now would be a great time!
Experienced working at our level and a serious point to prove!

Very few GAA managers get sacked, he joins a very short list!

From seeing some threads  in Tipp today the training standard in higher level clubs in Tipp were a better standard to inter county training. Easy to be the scapegoat in a transition as well and Bonnar gets the bullet.

Anyways hopefully  Laois will have someone organised within next month but have my reservations.

Need to bounce back up straight in 2023

I read on a Waterford thread it will be Cahill to Tipp and McGrath back to Waterford.

Just like a trade off and everybody's happy!

Laois man

Liam Cahill gone from waterford I see would be a great choice for laois manager but one thinks he's heading into the Tipp job..

Sign , sealed and delivered by all accounts.
