Probably cutting it out of the senior football budget
If mcgrath starts using those fancy words of his with the laois boys they won’t be long losing the rag… …

He’ll be sorely disappointed with the education levels of those young fellas when he arrives up there, all apprentice plasters and chippy’s with grandkids

That won’t end well. The Fennellys were great players but shite managers.
Hard to criticize him if he fails there
Very strange appointment, a fella with no inter county management experience at any level (I think) being brought in to sort out that mess…
Yeah strange one alright, wonder if there was anywhere else he could have went ?
Ballyhale juniors could have been a start

Brendan was the best of them in the managerial stakes. There was talk that he should have got it ahead of Kevin in 1998. Even after Kevin got the heave after one year, there was still some talk that Brendan should have got it then. Brother succeeding a sacked brother wasn’t seen as a good idea, so they gave it to a first cousin instead.

I would have thought he should be cutting his teeth with a minor or U20 side or even a club team
I assume with his S&C background he’s been involved with some teams already in some capacity
Win - win for Fennelly.
If he’s a disaster - well, he’d nothing to work with.
If he improves them any bit and gets them back up to the Joe McDonagh - top, top gaffer.

Offaly are worse than loads of club teams. They were hardly queuing up for the job.
I had expected Francis Forde to get it.
Fennelly a decent enough appointment in the circumstances. They’ll be happy enough here. They love Kilkenny managers.
