What's noticeable in this thread is even the derry people have turned against him...

He probably turned st brigids against him with his last article too. Continually alienating people.

Can't remember, but did he boycott Dungiven and pour forth much outrage when Stephen O'Neill became Dungiven Senior Manager?

Quote from: square_ball on October 04, 2023, 08:35:13 AMWonder did Joe have the same grievances about Brian Mullins when he took the Derry job or is it because he simply doesn't like Mickey Harte?
If you were to, ah hem, believe Brolly in an article of his last year were he said he was instrumental in bringing Mullins in as Derry manager 

From Joe's very own Indo column almost exactly this time last year...

'Derry needed a senior manager for the 1996/97 season. Brian was the principal of the huge Carndonagh Community School in Donegal. I met him after a game in Croke Park and asked him if he would be interested. He immediately said, "Yes." I said, "Really?" He said, "Yes."

I rang the county board and passed it on. A few months later, we arrived at Owenbeg and there he was, wearing that funny bushwacker hat, massive and intimidating'

Odd he didnt seem too exercised then about an outside manager for his beloved Derry..... wonder what changed 🤔

But what about all the Slaughtneil-ness and the Belleghy-ness? f**k the Derry county board and f**k Brian Mullins.

Listen he long out of Derry fball, I don't know if he be around many games, Dungiven have fell badly away compared to their 90's team.I think alot of what he said about McGuigan, Glass, the personal grumbling about Gallagher style of play which he couldn't gripe about as they were winning. Funny he didn't go full Pete Tong on Gallagher which I thought he would. Far as I know, he never came across Mickey Harte on the football field in his time, and had a f**king love fest for his 00's team, so I don't know why the coin turned. Am starting to think if this team does well it could eclipse what they done, and that's rattling his cage.

A highly rated manager by all accounts, very professional and players loved him. Brolly always hates these professional types. It smacks of petty jealousy from Brolly who is quickly becoming the class clown.

And the only person who gets anything out of this is Brolly, attention....oh,and advertising revenue from gambling companies advertising on his podcast lest we forget

Good point

Brollys hyporcracy beggers belief. He in a millionaire and has made a lot of money from the GAA, but hangs others out to dry for the same. Has made a fool of himself again.

red hander

A boring spoofer. Always was. Always will be. A self-generating shite machine.

What's his comparison of Tyrone and Derry and his republicanism not stopping him representing loyalism.

Quarterbackk

Items brolly fails to mention

Most of his 93 colleagues have made tons of money in coaching jobs around Ulster
His point on Kerry is Bullshit - Kerry, Dublin & Limerick have full time paid Managers, Coaches, S & C

His problem is Tyrone.  And Canavan sticking it in the net in 95   ;D

Sure he wasn't there that day.

Looks like a Joe Brolly and Conor McGregor Twitter "spat" is brewing. McGregor straight in with a low blow, sharing the old sleazy nightclub video of Joe. I wonder has Joe bitten off a bit more than he can chew with this one.
That was never a square ball!!

Yeah Mcgregor a real genius to be up against,

He doesn't have to be. Twitter isn't a forum for geniuses.
