The New Manager Thread

The Konica · July 22, 2010, 03:57:07 PM

Ok, so far we have Cavan, Laois, Tipperary, Fermanagh and Donegal looking for Managers

Westmeath and Derry may or may not be.

What's the likehood ....?

Farrandeelin · July 22, 2010, 03:57:58 PM

Mayo as well.

AZOffaly · July 22, 2010, 04:00:12 PM

Offaly is still officially unconfirmed as well, although I'd hope he stays on. (That's both hurling and football actually).

The Konica · July 22, 2010, 04:01:59 PM

What are the odds on this being the set up in 6 months?

Cavan - Pete McGrath
Fermanagh - Aidan O'Rourke
Laois - Mick O'Dwyer
Wicklow - Liam Kearns
Donegal - Jim McGuiness
Westmeath - Dessie Dolan Snr
Derry - Henry Downey
Monaghan - Paul Grimley

Mayo - Liam McHale

Farrandeelin · July 22, 2010, 04:08:28 PM

Liam McHale won't manage Mayo.

For your sake I hope not!

But you know the media and how he loves it too. If he wants it he'll be in the media every day and have them all writing for him - the Brother-in-Law the Cheerleader in Chief.

So who is favourite then - Connelly?

Don't start the Mayo lads on about a new manager. It is a perpetual motion machine.

The Konica · July 22, 2010, 04:22:28 PM

Hey ... youse might be looking for one shortly too!

Rossfan · July 22, 2010, 04:32:34 PM

We'll hardly be looking for one for a while yet

What's the odds Fergie will be the only 2010 Connacht manager still managing the same County in 2011?

put-it-up · July 22, 2010, 04:35:38 PM

If Baker Bradley doesn't go to Derry I will eat my hat!

Grimley I imagine is a shoe-in for Monaghan and I reckon Dessie Dolan will finally get his shot with Meath of the West. McGuinnes in Donegal is a dead cert.

FermGael · July 22, 2010, 04:37:07 PM

Amended. Peter McGinnity for Fermanagh i hope

The Konica · July 22, 2010, 04:38:13 PM

What about this ...

No, Baker stays, he'll not go to Derry
Banty resigns at the end of the year
Grimley get's top job in Monaghan
McElkennon goes to Derry with Cassidy or to Fermangh

Westmeath will indeed be looking for a new manager although Pat Flanagan will be invited I'm sure to throw his hat in the ring I'm sure... Then again u never know what shenanigans the Co. Board will be up to this year...

They could hardly ignore Dolan again though could they?
