James Horan Appointed Mayo Manager 2011

[AbbeySider]

Horan defiantly has the support of Mayo people on the ground, and there has been an anti-Lyons sentiment growing in the past few days so it will be interesting to see if the county board even risk it by recommending Lyons and go against the general feeling.

They may save face and not recommend Lyons if they know it wont be passed by the delegates.

Its all up in the air, but its kind of exciting isnt it?

Ya like falling off a cliff.

As I understand it one name will be selected by the selection Committee and put to the Board.

Will they read the cards. Will the delegates be willing to oppose? If they are not I expect Tommy to get over the line. If they are then I expect they may just nominate Horan to save their own bacon. Any decision will be for the benefit of "the boys" not for Mayo football. All we can do after that is pray

I'd be amazed but pleased if that was the case

I think we all would be R&G, but then they did go that Lyons had the job last week

[Barney]

Interesting and potentially good news!!

Until its signed and sealed though....

  The Connaught were on the ball with the Tommy Lyons story in fairness, so hopefully their source is right on this one too!
Going to be an exciting evening!!!

Anyone going to be around McHale park updating the rest of us in cyberland??

Tubberman,

Did JH have some form of army officer doing some training with the ballintubber lads ? Would this guy be part of the team.

Its all a bit transfer deadline day really!

I'm damned if I know what to make of this. The only way Horan could have the job now, at five o'clock, would be if Lyons pulled out at the last minute. How else could it be possible? And why would he do it, having stuck it out this far? What in God's holy name is going on?

Surely the people couldn't have won, could they?

Perhaps we (the people - club members) have finally won. Because there would be an awful backlash, and the Co. Board men would have to have heard rumours and murmurs in the background. Until it's a done deal however...

It wouldn't be the first, although Hardy wasn't invited.
