The point is in regard to public perception. It doesnât matter whether the story is true or not, itâs in the public domain.
Much like the Kieran Donaghy one, which is also bullshit.
Noel Treacy should hang for letting things develop to this. All he and the board had to do was hang back 1 week before ratifying AC and allow the players to thrash out their issues.
Heâs had a career in spin and negotiations and that things have to come to this sits badly for him. He knew the players had issues with AC bit went ahead with the reappointment regardless.

What story is this?
Ha.
What story is this?
It doesnât matter if itâs bullshit.
Interesting though it was all the same.
It had sub plots, background characters, the lot. Unreal how this shit grows.
Nail on the head right there Sidney.
Excellent post.
The only thing worse than a soccer prima donna is a GGA one.
Cunninghamâs next meeting with the players should go something like this:
(substitute winning all-irelands for inventing the necktie)

Can you arrange some sort of a JPG to background this quote and we can pin it up on the wall before next Januarys Walsh Cup final against KK.
Holy fuck I am hopping here.

They players can pin it up on the wall for the Walsh Cup final all they like but come the championship the only thing that will be pinned up against the wall will be whatever poor sod agrees to manage them next year as a playerâs father bursts into the dressing room at half-time to demand to know why his son has been taken off.
Cunningham should invite the players to a meeting and walk in wearing his two All-Ireland medals around his neck.
"See these, lads? Have a good fucking look at them because itâs the closest youâll ever get to an an All-Ireland medal, or in this case, medals, and I emphasise the plural.
Right, I resign. Go and get Josie fucking Harte to manage ye."

Hey Sid, I am not fighting you on this. The players had their chance to beat KK and failed miserably, they were the guys inside the white lines. Same in 2012, same in 2005, same in 2001, same in 1993, same in 1990.
Iâm not trying to pick a fight with any Galway people, mate. God, Iâm down there enough as it is.

I see Daighi Regan is rowing in now on Twitter with the âMen win All Irelands Pal, men like Lynskeyâ 
They did shaft Babs didnt they? 
What a horseshit post. The only public perception that matters is what the galway public think, what the rest of the country who seem utterly obsessed with galway hurling matters nothing. And most people i know dont consider this a disaster, cunningham presided over two good years and two terrible ones (one terrible one involved drawing with Kilkenny in the championship, a result the rest of the country bar tipp would wet dream about) if the panel was split id say disaster but we can take it that the only three opposing his removal were his clubmates who had to do that and would be perceived worse by the county if they didnt, the unanimous nature means the whole wanted change and i commend them on that. Kp hit the nail on the head, the county board are swiming in debt and some of them barely give a fuck if galway win an all. Ireland in the next few years as long as they dont go under financially. The players decided after four years of falling short, admittedly against the best inter county set up and manager ever they couldnât get over the line with him and I and a few friends of mine ive talked to see nothing wrong with that. As for the harte incident, it clearly did not happen but youve bizarrely referenced it in two posts. Public perception? The public perception of dublin is filthy cunts who are molly coddled by the gaa with all home games, favoured refs, preferential funding in a supposedly competitive championship and a blind eye turned to gouging and feigning injury all so dublin can fill the gaa coffers when the band wagon gets to the latter stages in leinster and the all ireland, but im sure that doesnt have any impact up there does it?
