"As a small example, Rochford occasionally found himself having to justify not just the size of the playing group but sometimes even the presence or absence of certain named players.
"Some of the county board members would have liked to think they had an influence over who was on the panel and not on the panel, even though it wasn't their place to do so," says one member of the set-up. "Stephen had to deal with all that and other things like it. That's noise and you have enough to be dealing with as a county manager without adding noise."

If that's true it's just incredible

Whats incredible , that a cb are asking why the f**k they are paying thousands of euros for players hanging around the panel making no inroads year after year whilst we let young fellas lose out on a couple of years development .

Listen cunty hooks just because ye have sfa all to worry about financially ,I'd say Leitrim do more actual fundraising than Dublin doesn't mean the mere mortals can be so casual 
Walk-in down mchale rd , sun out, summers day , game day . That's all .

There might have been an issue as well about player/players having to be in the team? Just saying.

That panel size and governance aside, any member of the county board trying to exert an influence over who is and isn't on the panel is absolutely crazy.

A couple of years ago the previous management claimed the some high profile players from a particular club were trying to influence team/panel selection

If either is true it's madness.

Re fundraising, the Dublin panel and management have spent every winter fundraising from winning the AI until the team holiday but can we confine that to the Dublin threads?

Of course it is true. It would have worked too only for those pesky Dublin kids!

Just kidding on the working bit.

I dunno. As Clerkin wrote in that piece, the intrigue is more down to incompetence than shrewdness and the ability to make good judgements. Throw in a bit of nepotism like after Horan quit and the whole dysfunctional nature of things starts to ......... I was going to say make sense but making sense is something that is not going to be happeneing soon in Mayo.

It's starting to become clear the damage the Connelly's have done to Mayo football over the years.

According to the Western People Horan, Solan and Enda Gilvarry are allowing their names be put forward by the clubs. No other candidates are expected.

Is that as separate candidates or what?

Don't know... I'd imagine separate to begin with but maybe Solan/Gilvarry would be open to a selector role?

And to think some was surprised that James Horan would make a return.

Separate it seems. Horan is expected to challenge as well.

What has Gilvarry been doing since 2013? When did he finish with the minors?

Manager of the Stephenites since 2017 and has done a good job bringing through a young team playing good open football. I don't think he is up to the Mayo job, maybe he should go for the U20's first whenever it becomes available.
