Cunningham coached the laois footballers for a spell in 2016 did he not with little fanfare or hogging of limelight. Doubt it will be a complete shock for him and he is going in with a well defined role from Gilroy
He made it clear it was not for the long haul and wouldn’t continue. He did it as a favour to the players who were set to revolt at the sheer ineptitude of Lillis.
Gilroy might be what Dublin need just now. They need someone who can try get everyone back together playing like Schutte, Cronin, Sutcliffe…
He proved himself with the football team in 2009 when he knocked all the bullshit and ego out of them. I have a feeling a few of those Dublin hurlers have a bit of that attitude about themselves.
