Pardon my ignorance but what does a coaching officer do?

Well, Fergal Byron was the coaching officer before and I have seen him do f##k all. So anyone that wanted it could possibly do it.

Maybe I'm being unfair but id be of a similar mind to you, What i saw of him in the position, he contributed very little in public or in meetings.

Martin Byrne as Treasurer on the other hand has been exceptional these past 13 years, fully across his brief, articulate and a very capable officer.

One thing alone would tell you how brilliant he was at his job, the Centre of excellence came in at 2% over budget from start to finish, compare and contrast with nearly every other build of consequence in this country, Paschal McEvoy has big shoes to fill.

Coaching Officer, Development Officer and PRO currently have no one to take them on,3 Vacant and Vital positions, which actually involve hard work and leadership.

Still at least we had an election for lads to go to Congress.

never taught of it like that but when its spelt out you can see how self-serving this all is.

End of an era Ross retiring. What a player! Some great memories he gave us over the years.

It would be great to see him involved with the underage teams.

I believe it has. They had to.make one or two changes to what they had originally chosen.

Butch Cassidy

Any word on what they are like SCFC?

They had brought up 15 odd u16's to have a look at and a good few of them then had let back down to their own age grade

No idea but one of the better lads eligible from last year, Emerson, is not involved which is a pity.

Jason coffy was doing the s&c for the minors i think. Worrying if he has gone and nobody comes in immediately.

Jd

Jason Coffey still with the minors. Took the warmup yesterday. I think he may be staying on board with them

Butch Cassidy

Minors have a game? What are they like?
