Quote from: Milltown Row2 on November 06, 2025, 11:28:37 AMCan think of only one club that really doesn't bring in outsiders as managers that much, maybe 2.. Dunloy and Rossa, the Johnnies also rely on in house for the main, the rest, well if you ain't from those clubs then ya haven't much of a leg to stand on and throw shit..

Clubs will do what they feel right for them, so let them at it, internally these posts are advertised and the options are there for clubmen to take it on. If not the only other option is the committee take that role or the look outside..

 

That day we pay for senior managers in our club is the day ill stop giving my time for the club.

Ive been involved in teams for 14 years coming now in all 3 codes and all 3 senior teams at one stage along that. Not a single penny has ever been sought for doing this nor has anyone else (bar the S&C coaches) taken from managements.

If we start to pay the managers what about all the others then who give hours up each week like myself.

If we ever start that crap then ill be finished giving my time up for free. Mercenaries coming in for a year with no care for the club or what happens the next year.

Nah, pass.



Is Murtagh O'Brien now relegated to a mere S&C Coach?

Any idea what managers are looking for posts? Seems to be difficult for some clubs to fill them.

I'm from the same club as you and while there has been no managers paid there has definitely been people paid outside of the S&C Coaches. You clearly dont know as much as you think you do hahaha

Is he the manger -  no

Was the rest of the management getting paid - no

Was outside funding used for MOB - most likely

Our senior hurling & camogie set ups didnt get a penny either for their managements

I heard from a player that Cargin management was staying on this year again

That's good, RD has been very very good and one game doesn't make you a bad coach overnight..

Be interesting to see the approach from the different managers this year, will clubs encourage county standard players to be part of the county set up, what have they learned from the new rules, how will they set out their stalls next year.

Will teams look at Dunloy's approach to the game and see if pace beats power again or a mix of both needed..

Be looking forward to the challenge games to get a look at teams
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Was a big statement to make so I can understand the necessity to hide the glaring hole in this story

fell off my seat at this contradiction lol. His principles stretch as far as needed.  Ah, I have it figured out. C O'B is not on the management, he is JUST the coach. Sci fiction bending principles now lol

Does it matter?

Every club pays somebody so the conversation doesn't matter.
