County Manager Merry go round

WTF are Monaghan county board at?

Back to the Banty. Back to the roaring a shouting from the sideline. Don't know what all the fuss about peter Donnelly is? Brilliant Tyrone players look more like robots every year.

After 6 years punching above their weight  that's Monaghan back to the light weights again

Some credit is due, at least we have managed to piss off Tyronies with Peter Donnelly's decision to be a part of the "team".

More rumblings from the west about another manager stepping down. #GAA

KW I presume?

KW I presume?

My understanding is that it's still in the balance

Fogarty trying to get out first about a potential story without anything tangible to back it up, unless he clarifies it with more detail (Is he on about KW? John Kiely? What are his sources?) it's no better than the rumours heard in the street and seen here and elsewhere which is still just speculation. Certainly from his musings on Galway hurling he's not a journo with much time for Galway GAA as it is. 

If KW coming back is still in the balance as per thebackbar1, you have to question what are the reasons:

• Can't replace the backroom team?
• Lack of finances? There are rumours that the real reason O'Donoghue left the hurlers was the money (or lack of it) available for the setup.
• Doubts over ability to improve in 2020 after a clear back slide in 2019?
• Lost the confidence of the majority of the panel?
• Just had enough of it?

If there's this much doubt at all about going back and he eventually stays on then what optimism could you have for 2019 at the minute.

there are rumours that walsh is out and rochford is in. but it's all speculation at the moment. if walsh leaves, he will have been more or less pushed

Was there a falling out with Mickey Harte and Peter Donnelly?

Seems like a bizarre choice to leave Tyrone and go to Monaghan.

I believe Peter donnelly has converted to Islam which didn't go down well with harte. Banty doesn't give a shite as long as there is money to be made.

If he leaves it will be because he wasn't able to put together a new management team not pushed.

John Keily and Andy McEntee re appointed in Limerick and Meath.

Management Appointment Ratified


At a meeting of the Monaghan GAA County Committee tonight, it was unanimously agreed to ratify the appointment of Séamus McEneaney as County Senior Football manager, along with the backroom team of Peter Donnelly, Conor Laverty, David McCague and Ray Boyne.
In a subsequent statement, Séamus stated: "It is an honour and a privilege to get the opportunity to manage this group of Monaghan players. The management team and I are relishing the challenge of building on the previous great work of Malachy O'Rourke and ensure that Monaghan continues to compete at the highest level."

Was Donnelly to Ulster rugby not true, or will he be doing both?
