Would O'Donnell not be viewed in Donegal as a natural successor to  McGuinness?

Who O Donnell ?

Mark McHugh staying on with Westmeath

Speculation that Mark McHugh could be lured to Galway has ended following the Donegal native's reappointment as Westmeath senior football manager.

McHugh was among the bookies' favourites to fill the void left by Padraic Joyce, but is remaining with the Lake County after a sensational first season in charge. The Leinster SFC winning manager's reappointment was rubber stamped at the county board meeting in Mullingar. His backroom team is also unchanged with Emmet McDonnell, Jamie Gonoud, Ryan Daly and Stephen 'Archie' Beattie all continuing in their roles

hits out at the board for lack of support as he steps aside.

"My belief is that each and every person who sits on that Football Board needs to reflect on the remit they have been given. The lack of support that they gave to the management team and players can only be described as disrespectful and disappointing.
"The Football Board never fully supported the entire management team; in truth, it was a constant battle. I had put forward coaches' names for positions on my management team that they did not want to appoint because of their personal views, rather than considering the skill sets that these coaches brought to the setup.
"Standing my ground for the benefit of Limerick Football was not popular and inevitably damaging to my relationship with the Football Board. I believe that competence is the key criterion for the selection of people to be part of any management team, not whether you like them or not. The coaches I had were all competent, capable, knowledgeable and, above all, committed.
"While I and all other managers do a yearly review, which is the correct thing to do, I believe that the Football Board should also do a review to ensure that they are effectively delivering on their remit and are motivated by the right reasons.

It was made official last week but Brian Flanagan is in with Kildare for another year alongside Davy Burke.
They are changing up the S&C team - honestly am seeing club teams with better fitness than them.

We need to get promoted and stabilise in Div 2 and get back into Sam from next year.

On the subject of Kildare I see an interesting article re. Newbridge capacity

The much maligned Connacht Council could issue seating tickets for the Connacht Final with section/row/seat number on them.
Yet 2 weeks later Croke Park with all its full time staff couldn't for the game v Tyrone, leading to a reduction in the capacity for that game.
