The Future for Laois Football

[Zooming around]

Would Anthony Cunningham be a shout for senior job given his CV? If he is willing to manage Port he would surely go for Laois job?

Was he not involved before??

He was involved with Laois as a coach when Mick Lillis managed them in 2016. Lillis thought highly of him at the time.

Does Donie Brennan now become an option for the Laois County Board to consider as the next Senior Football boss following his ladies step down? Remarkable job done with the ladies

I'm not so sure it can be classed as a remarkable job. With the number of clubs and strength of Ladies football within the county it was shocking that Laois were barely even competing at intermediate level for the number of years with a lot of our better players opting not to commit to the Laois set up.

In fairness he got many of those players back onboard and things progressed from there and it was a happy camp for the last couple of years he was over them. However, they are at a level now that they should be at and the test of his ability as a manager would have been to see of he could take them another step or two up the ladder and properly compete with the likes of Mayo, Cork or a Meath.

To hand him the job of Laois senior football manager off the back barely beating Wexford in an intermediate final and staying in senior championship by defeating a woeful Cavan side this year wouldn't be my call.

By virtue of recent appointments and redundancies (for want of a better word) our reputation is piss poor. Nobody wants this job and we're running out of people to blind side into taking it. They'd be better off just filling it with whoever wants it and moving on. It's obvious from other threads that the money would be better spent on our younger players

Laois should close the gates and let the cattle on to graze

I heard Steven Poachers name mentioned for the Senior Job. I didn't believe it, but he was spotted in Portlaoise on Saturday evening.

Poacher...surely a wind up?

Bad result for Portlaoise minors tonight, anyone on the ground tell us how the underage in the club is going? How are numbers?

Big numbers attending the O Módhra Óg programme again tonight. Around 140 kids in. Nice to see a few ex county players in coaching too. Small beginnings but the children are very enthusiastic about it

awful...

[Saint88]

Poacher isn't the answer. Having said that I'd say the list of potential managers isn't a great one. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[redsetanta]

I see that Murphy has finished with Offaly. Would he be interested?
