Na Fianna is my club not Na Piarsaigh

Maybe in larger clubs which are essentially medium sized enterprises but in rural clubs everything would be through the main account with fundraising being done through golf classics, Christmas raffles, club lotto etc.

Would both na fianna senior teams be getting a meal after every training session and home match ?

No. Definitely not. Most lads live within 15 mins of where they train. It would be a spectacular waste of money

Fair enough. As far as i can see in dublin smaller and medium size clubds would often part finance senior teams outside club funds

Ya but you’d be enjoying it so much at this year id say.

Also the coaches who come in and immerse themselves in the club and get to know the players etc must enjoy it and not see it as a business transaction.

He probably has intermittent poster @Rintintin on the ticket in some vital role

I think one of RTT’s specialties would be keeping opposing water carriers in constant fear.

They’re on a crusade to get Jack back for what he did to Paidi.

If I hear marc Ăł sĂ© talking about his book wan more time I’ll throw up.
Poor me, bad jack, blah blah!

Didn’t Jack drop Marc? The O’Se’s must have some opinion of themselves.

He dropped Tomas in '09 for a game.

And also whipped him at HT in one of the Mayo finals when they were winning handy which was some flex from the Dromid man.

Fitzmaurice dropped Marc for the 2014 replay in Limerick but he got a repreive because of a red card. He also dropped him for the 2015 Final I think which was the first time in 40 years Kerry started an AI Final without an O’Se starting from Ventry.

They chose their photos well.

Haven’t read the articles - But what about Managers/Coaches on borders etc? Someone in Cloughjordan potentially couldn’t coach in Offaly for example?

I would say, I think if in a world where ALL management/coaching was in-house, it would almost certainly level the playing field up within a few years. The ‘top’ clubs in my opinion would slip back.

If the weather warning system - red, orange, yellow etc - can only operate on a county basis then I’m afraid the GGA management carousel will need to follow suit.

“Brining in” outside managers? How does that work?

Are they sent off to the John West factory to do a coaching course?

There is an onus on clubs to produce players but also develop coaches/managers.
