Search for New Mayo Manager

I see that Rochford is to be formally ratified - someday next week. About time to call a halt to the proceedings and appoint him. Time will tell if giveballaghback is correct or not. If he is, I'll be one of the first to admit it. I just hope he's not.

Interesting backroom team, McEntee should be a great addition.
Was disappointed Carey didn't take the Knockmore job last winter, I've heard good reports about him
Horan, while he is local has plenty of pedigree

Hopefully they can work together and theres not too many egos

Looks good alright going by what I found on Hoganstand

St Brigids are probably about the 4th or 5th best team in Dublin "on paper".
McEntee managed them to 14th position in Division 1 this year. So his last game in charge is a relegation playoff against Templeogue on Sunday.

Anyone any updates on the Mayo finances? Have they got some new source of funding or something?

Last season they had to cut the panel during the league because of finances and now they have assembled a very serious looking backroom team. Something doesn't seem to add up?

Sold a rake of fields around Ballagh back to the Rossies for the bypass...made a fortune off them. Let the good times roll...

Seems like an expensive backroom team surely anything less than sam will result in another player coop.   Saying that I have never heard of anyone training a donkey to win the derby

I agree with you. You have to look no further than John Evans to see that it can't be done.

The biggest disappointment in Kevin McStay's GAA career was not getting selected as Mayo senior manager last year. http://www.irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/football/snub-for-mayo-job-kevin-mcstays-big-regret-366719.html

It says he was overlooked in 1996 for the post. There was no Vacancy for the post in '96?

Who's Evans managing?

A big string of Mayo managers over the past 64 years have also shown that you can't train a donkey to win a derby.

Tried to totally change their way of playing, said he spent his first months in charge getting them to just kick the ball again. They have been a massive disappointment alright.

He is well able to commentate on them anyway, back in the day when he had some hair https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XtVm8z28e4

Winning Derby's has never been a problem for Mayo Managers, it's the challenges beyond that, that are the problem.
