Davy Fitz- a thread for the non-believers

Antrim hurling is gonna be box office for the next year or two @Glentaisie

Gonna be fun for sure.

How many clubs in Antrim are gonna lose out due to the Davy slush fund?

What do Antrim seriously expect to achieve with him?
A Leinster championship? Not a chance. National League? Perhaps division 2. Joe McDonagh cup? Perhaps

Nothing that might be attainable under Davy was not attainable (and attained) under previous management teams

Nothing that was unattainable before Davy will be attainable under Davy

They could win a Leinster. The standard is putrid.

I believe Davy has been investing in property in Belfast lately so wonder will he be relocating there during his time in charge.

Wouldn’t have though the Antrim County board would have enough money to cover these expenses

What till @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy gets wind of the amount of milage Davy is going to rack up.

I have to respectfully disagree. Maybe if we’re talking about Dublin then this is true but Davy will give Antrim the kind of publicity that the game up there has been craving for years. Darren Gleeson was a success up there to be fair but you’d imagine Davy can attain a little bit more buy in again and add a bit of structure to it. Exactly what Antrim has traditionally been lacking as their clubs always produce a steady flow of stickmen. There’s no way they lose by 31 points in Nowlan Park under Davy. 3rd place in Leinster is a fairly realistic aim with Davy on board. That being said they’re probably more likely to finish 6th and go down.

They’ll win Division 1B of the League.

Davy Fitz …Antrim Manager package…€120k per year plus expenses for him and backroom team. Car plus use of house in Antrim for training and games. Darren Gleeson spent 5 years up there and apparently Antrim sponsor Creagh Concrete built his house for him. Serious money in Antrim!

Who sent you that?

Dublin couldn’t match that, ambition and backing. Serious support.

He’s not going up there for the good of his health. As mentioned, they’ve probably nicer hurlers than Dublin as well. Very interesting.

Plaza in Portlaoise could see an uptick as well…you want to be fueling about a third of the way up

That Applegreen in Lusk will surely get a bit of bidness too, it feels like a two-stop journey.
