looks like the chairwoman is moving to get rid of harte under instruction from the money men

Bullshit and I don't see why people are reading so much into it harte will be appointed for at least another year and rightly so.

Won't happen though Tyrone's 'great' year being somewhat overcooked. Relegation and haven't beaten a top team now (Mayo-Dublin-Cork-Kerry-Donegal) in championship since 2008.

Bullshit, the sentiment for change of manager is strong enough and gathering momemtum but pressure not coming from the sponsors. Different agendas but entirely football related. Harte will be reappointed on a 2 year term, he has just enough support

It would seem ridiculous to get rid of him now, unlike in 2013 when they made a SF, there seems to have been progress this year imo

In 2013 there wasn't really a willing successor.  Could be that a lot of progress/optimism this year is down to the U21 influence...

Cork aren't in that axis and never really were.

I can't see Canavan and Dooher being part of a management that unplaces Mickey against his will. Anyway, I can't see Peter giving up his handy number with Sky just yet. Two years more with the U21s and Mickey by then will most likely be ready to hand over. If the U21 management team aren't in the frame this year then there is no realistic alternative to Mickey. Anyway, he's done more than enough this year to deserve a another year at the very least.
That was never a square ball!!

Surely the very fact that the most obvious replacements, Canavan, Logan and Dooher, are staying with the U21s, guarantees that Mickey will serve another term?

stew

That fact that he has just enough support as suggested baffles me, the man took an average enough side to the cusp of the AIF a few weeks ago, what more has he to do for you lot???
Armagh, the one true love of a mans life.

Who did they beat to get there? No Munster, we were game but always gonig to be overmatched. Then Dublin before they started winning and Down of all teams in the AI final. It was a dream run for Cork, never having to confront the bogeymen that were/are their neighbours. Cork under Counihan and Cuthbert have been anything but fearsome.

You've an awful habit of under evaluating teams Syf. Kerry weren't going to be within as asses roar of an All Ireland for years, as recently as last year, according to your good self.
I think Cork have underachieved under a couple of managers, but they did win an All Ireland and it's crazy to say they weren't among the top teams for at least a couple of years. They have a brain fart about Kerry in Croker, or had in the late 00s at least, but they were still the 2nd or 3rd best team in Ireland around then.

Once again Syferus you are really making a point which is utterly relevant to the theme of the thread. Thanks for your input.
