Aidan McLaughlin as part of a backroom team is hardly an issue. Did anyone have an issue with Gavin McGeehan being involved with last years team? (someone who had a similar coaching role with either Ulster or Derry GAA as far as I know).

Anyone who has seen any of Campbell's teams play before could not be surprised there was no score in their last game until 27 minutes in. It's an absolute joke that he was appointed by our county board to develop our underage players.

I see no problem with someone like Aidy being involved in a fairly minor role in the set up, maybe gathering a bit of experience as he goes. I would though question letting a man who played ultra defensive/negative football at his last 4 jobs (Steelstown, Castledawson, Glentes and Slaughtmanus) with little or no success manage our best underage players.

Cant understand why Campbell was appointed either ....

The other fellas are good coaches with Fabian and Ronan also having had Club management experience.   Aidy McLaughlin (he is from Craigbane isn't he ?) was a very good player and was on  the County Senior panel around about 2010, was unfortunate with injuries and was working away from home a lot.  Good honest committed Clubman and still youngish

The question isn't why was he appointed? It's who was he appointed ahead of? Was there a queue of high quality applicants? There should be a good team there but Monaghan look to have an outstanding team given they stuffed both tyrone and donegal on the way to the ulster minor league.


Did a bit of asking, he works with the Goalkeepers, so I assume he isnt involved with the tactical side of things.

No he is a fella from Claudy,he did alot off work with our club last year, I wasnt there,but it was supposedly top notch.
Cant see what harm a young coach would cause,learning from Rocks, Muldoon,Jody Wilson etc.

It's a poor choice of Management & backroom team. Can't hope 3 good years and another baron spell will help us at senior level. We need to be continuously challenging at minor level to start climbing the ranks again.

Im sure the backroom team is bigger than that 3/4 men.What are their roles? S+C coach? Stats guy? GK coach?

There must have been excitement aplenty today  in the Jim Mcguigan shield final ,Derry  and down went 27mins in the first half before the scoring got opened  (Down won after extra time )

Who is the Derry U17's  management team ?



Fabian Muldoon,Ronan Rocks,Jody Wilson and Aidy McLaughlin


Has a job as one of Chris Collins' puppets doing primary school coaching etc and is now somehow part of the u17 set up. Unreal


He has done club work at my own club, I am almost sure he is an Ulster Gaa coach,not a Derry one.
