I see the story on Hoganstand.com describes Seán's role as "consultant". I can't imnagine him going just as a selector. But I don't know what a "consultant" is in the context of football team management. A Bobby Robson type setup?

Someone should have told Sean he has been appointed, he doesn't seem to know:

Boylan refutes Carlow 'appointment' claims
25 April 2007


Sean Boylan has denied reports that he will have an involvement with the Carlow footballers in this year's championship.

The former Meath boss said there was no foundation to weekend reports that he had been employed as a consultant to newly appointed Carlow manager John Kearns. Boylan explained that his role thus far was to offer some advice to Carlow "in their endeavours to get things up and running again" following the resignation of Andy Shorthall in the latter stages of the county's ill-fated NFL campaign.

He insisted that his involvement with Carlow had not extended beyond offering one piece of advice, which was something he had often agreed to do with other teams in the past.

"One bit of advice. Nothing further than that," he stated.
