Does it matter?

Every club pays somebody so the conversation doesn't matter.

And every club has a blow in😉

Exactly and some more successful than
others.

Some clubs are built completely of blow ins 😉

Can think of only one club that really doesn't bring in outsiders as managers that much, maybe 2.. Dunloy and Rossa, the Johnnies also rely on in house for the main, the rest, well if you ain't from those clubs then ya haven't much of a leg to stand on and throw shit..

Clubs will do what they feel right for them, so let them at it, internally these posts are advertised and the options are there for clubmen to take it on. If not the only other option is the committee take that role or the look outside..

 

That day we pay for senior managers in our club is the day ill stop giving my time for the club.

Ive been involved in teams for 14 years coming now in all 3 codes and all 3 senior teams at one stage along that. Not a single penny has ever been sought for doing this nor has anyone else (bar the S&C coaches) taken from managements.

If we start to pay the managers what about all the others then who give hours up each week like myself.

If we ever start that crap then ill be finished giving my time up for free. Mercenaries coming in for a year with no care for the club or what happens the next year.

Nah, pass.

Is Murtagh O'Brien now relegated to a mere S&C Coach?

Is he the manger -  no

Was the rest of the management getting paid - no

Was outside funding used for MOB - most likely

Our senior hurling & camogie set ups didnt get a penny either for their managements

You see when you're talking about this in a general sense and managers not getting paid etc.

Is it a case of they get fuel (as in the correct milage, nothing more) OR do they get nothing, as in absolutely not a penny?

Anybody know?
