What was his day job? I wonder how much he gets per session? Its weird turning up for games sometimes and you’d see Colin Corkery manager of opposition or Paidi Kissane, Peter Creedon etc. Must be some money in it.
I think a lot of it is clubs want to get someone in who is a fresh voice and wont have played with some of the players, will be oblivious to internal politics and will also see players increase their attendance levels to training. A change can be re invigorating.
Spot on. But he is wasting his time there when he could be an e-hero pointing out the failures of everyone else from his keyboard. Instead he is lambasted for striking fear into athletes when he is actually improving the lives of misfortune families every day,
How the fuck do you know he isn’t declaring it to revenue?
How do you know he didn’t do a deal with the club that he sent another guy instead. Indeed being from a GAA club myself I hear rumors that we have paid a heap of lads over the years to train us when in fact its bullshit.
Only two guys know the real story . The coach being payed and the lad writing the cheques.
Fuck You
Fuck Cork
BTW this semi- irrational behavior with Cork posters will last at least until Saturday 8:30 pm.
Conor used to work in the rehab bottle bank on the boggy road in Cork while he played for Cork, not sure what his role was but he was dressed for manual labour, myself and a few mates used to cycle up to the basketball courts next to it because they usually had nets and were always quiet, he often joined us for games during his breaks, he was a top top bloke back then and I’ve never forgotten it about him, I wouldn’t hear a bad word said about Conor Counihan
Secondly because I know people in clubs he spoke to, including my own One of whom is on here.
Thirdly because I spoke to a player from his own club about the coaching.
Fourth because I watched his teams play.
I know for a fact CC was going to go as far ass Waterford and Wexford to coach clubs. Yet works in charleville. That’s some commuting.
Was he goibg to do it for the good of his health?
Don’t be a fool
You seem woefully defensive of the guy just because he does his job.
The point is a general one too though. I have been in on conversations or overheard and been relayed back about lads “trying to get on the circuit” as it’s money for old rope. Most turn up with a set game plan no matter what the club and are basically taking the piss.
If Graham Hunter was made of chocolate, he’d tell everyone how well he knows a load of important Spanish chocolate’s and how he often goes for beers with them
