and I dont have to disclose any info to you that I have received from players who have played under gilroy or vincents club members
Ahem, normal speak = I actually don't have a clue.
Yes, best not to disclose any 'info' in case they track you down.
yep, you actually dont have a clue so rather than trot out your best bully boy lines
how about you stick to what you know in the safe yet futureless classroom (some day you might even make principal!)

as for Gilroys shrewdness, well its been noted around Dublin eminating from his clubmates, plus he's pulled a few nifty deals in the business world - but you know even less about that kind of thing so I'll spare you that too  :D

You always know a man's well beaten when he's using emoticons to back himself up. 'pulled a few nifty deals in the business world ' - one of the most ridiculos arguments for being a county manager I've ever heard.

Fair enough I'll stand back and not bully you any more. As someone pointed out, it's not fair.

This strikes me as the first "director of football" type of appointment and could possibly work ok. i'm assuming gilroy will be an overseer making sure all of the pieces are in place and conditions are maximised for team and coaching staff to work in.

This worked well in armagh with kernan in that type of role, grimley taking care of the coaching and tactics and McCloskey taking care of fitness.

A genuine question Lynchboy -

Are there players who have played under gilroy and if so, where?

ONeill

Surely someone can attempt to define Gilroy's approach to the game. Kernan, Harte, Coleman, Boylan, OMahony, McGrath etc all have a clearly defined methodology. Is he a diciplinarian, fitness/strength fan, workrate centred etc etc? Or is this a Ryan/McGeeney appointment in that it's a shot-in-the-dark? Or is he there as an overseer of Team Dublin?

coached /managed teams in Vincents
and yes, he will be the front man with whelan (who he has worked with prev) concentrating on the football coaching and style of play.
Obv at a guess and we dont know what the men have agreed.


as for oneill's attempts to claim some kind of victory - well its obvious that you are as ignorant about the real world as much as you are about making a decent wage and football outside of tyrone!

coaching/mgt of all of those and some adult teams too I believe.
while impressive he may have been for some of the nepotic vincents club members that were telling me
it still doesnt qualify him as an intercounty manager.
However his role is that of diplomatic front man , and as he has worked along wih whelan already, its a partnership they know that works.
Whelan was not allowed take the title role for Dublin. Theres always politics behind such moves, and no - I wont be disclosing  this.

well on this ooccasion i know the story with whelan. he's not the man for the dublin job.

the reason i'm interested in gilroy is because i'm wondering if he'd get shot of whelan in a years time or if he'd have the authority to.

Obviously gilroy was a payer under whelan but where did they wor together?

yeah played whole game at No. 13--was useless, no points from play or frees--not strong enough--ran round in circles and got ball turned over--won one free

He's been like that for Longford too - all since he got the smell of himself.   ::)

I'm aware of that, i'm wondering at what level within vincents he has coached given he hasn't coached the senior team?

The hilarity of LB's supposed knowledge on Gilroy is brightening up my day.

Keep er lit old man.

Not one of the 56 ;D Dubs have dared to challenge Lynchboy's inside wisdom on this matter.
