Another Championship for John Brennan.

He must be one of the most successful Club Managers ever.

Can anybody confirm or deny

The really interesting thing about the "JB" factor, is that most of the teams that he won a championship with, could be considered breakout or step up wins, i.e. no recent winning championship form, and he got them over the line

Don't agree entirely with that. I agree that Slaughneil and the first one of Laveys were, but Cargin have been in a number of finals, as were Loup and Carrickmore are always contenders in Tyrone

3 I think ( 2 x Lavey and 1 x Loup)and 1 AI (Lavey). Stand to be corrected though

Fairly sure he only won one with Lavey . . . Malachy O'Rourke was in charge when Loup won their Ulster as far as I'm aware.

O'Rourke was definitely over the Loup,  they beat us in the semi final in 2003.  It was just with Lavey that he won an Ulster.

Lavey won Ulster in '90 & '92. Surely both of those were with Brennan in charge.

Don't think he won an Ulster with Lavey or anyone, Brendan Convery was Lavey manager.

http://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-games/gaelic-football/making-his-mark-in-the-job-he-loves-so-well-26752398.html

QuoteBrennan won with Lavey (1988 and 1993), two with Antrim side Cargin (1999 and 2000), one with Tyrone's Carrickmore (2001). He delivered the goods with Slaughtneil (2004) and Loup in 2009.

That would suggest he's never won Ulster.
