Replying To kikfada: "I'll meet you off the Train in Kenedys Ollie sure you can sleep over and get the Train back after the harty Breakfast my Gal will prepare for you. Ten pints of the finest and sure the craic would be mighty. Greengrass might make an appearance too." Good man Kikfada. Sounds like an offer to good to refuse. I am sure you and Greengrass would know each other if Kennedy's is both your local. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 25/07/2017 16:01:43 2023315 Link

His time has passed. Unless Keenan and a few of the 2010 team are on board as a management team. Nally is probably in pole position. in_a_bind (USA) - Posts: 62 - 26/07/2017 22:33:44 2024220 Link
Replying To MR: "You must be joking, great player in his day but not the time to bring him back, past his best!" So was Christy but we admired him to end. Based on 2017 league and championship to date Paddy would be on best team. Razor would be close too. 19616609 (Louth) - Posts: 1742 - 26/07/2017 23:49:50 2024253 Link
Rory Gallagher is now available. He would be a good pick as he knows what it will take to survive against the better teams in division 2. He will be in huge demand so we should move now. barker (USA) - Posts: 55 - 01/08/2017 17:23:22 2027520 Link
Replying To barker: "Rory Gallagher is now available. He would be a good pick as he knows what it will take to survive against the better teams in division 2.

I think it's Nallys if he wants it ,no other candidates jumping out pundit2 (Louth) - Posts: 597 - 01/08/2017 21:07:17 2027613 Link
Any news or updated rumours on applicants for the job ? Pete McGrath would be a great man for the job, would it interest him ? louthman57 (Louth) - Posts: 324 - 22/08/2017 12:28:10 2036349 Link
Too old. We need a young ideas man who will inspire a young team joej (Louth) - Posts: 1615 - 23/08/2017 20:25:45 2036913 Link
Replying To joej: "Too old. We need a young ideas man who will inspire a young team" See what others think of us ! Limited choices alright. But I do agree that Donegal should be looking to be competitive in Ulster again, that was Jimmys number 1 goal. Build from there. paddy carr managed Kilmacud to 2 Leinster titles and 1 club all ireland from 2008 to 2011. Managed Louth before that with limited success but it was louth! Also think he managed burren in down and some club in roscomon. Age wise id say about 60 plus. Currently managing ballymun, lost the county semi to vincents last year by 1 point, had they won that they would probably have won dublin and leinster. Will be a force again this year. seems to handle big teams and players well. giveme30 (Dublin) - Posts:63 - 23/08/2017 19:44:04 2036899 Post Reply Link 0 0 Fraizer (Louth) - Posts: 14 - 23/08/2017 21:33:11 2036942 Link
So Banty has resigned from wexford??? Gicker01 (Louth) - Posts: 80 - 24/08/2017 00:48:53 2036987 Link
Replying To Gicker01: "So Banty has resigned from wexford???" Not Banty please. sharpey (Louth) - Posts: 193 - 24/08/2017 10:21:17 2037038 Link
Well Banty would bring the physicality back to the team anyway. We could do worse..... Whitey_Toppskin (Louth) - Posts: 64 - 24/08/2017 12:37:46 2037117 Link
Replying To sharpey: "Not Banty please." Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest to see Banty throw his hat in the ring for the job. He has businesses in Louth and commuting would only be up the road. louthman57 (Louth) - Posts: 324 - 24/08/2017 12:52:03 2037125 Link
Replying To louthman57: "Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest to see Banty throw his hat in the ring for the job. He has businesses in Louth and commuting would only be up the road." He sure does. He has a couple of nightclubs and a pub in Drawda. That pub is flying at the moment. OLLIE (Louth) - Posts: 12224 - 24/08/2017 13:22:19 2037150 Link
Heard Colm Nally is going to Manage a top senior club in Meath. Whats keeping us in appointing a new Manager. Wicklow have theirs, Laois and Offaly about to appoint theirs. Here we are in Division 2 and no sign of a Manager sharpey (Louth) - Posts: 193 - 30/08/2017 09:58:53 2040609 Link

You would imagine that a manager from outside of the county ( if thats the way they are thrinkg) should have had the oppotrtunity to watch guys in competive games blueboy (Louth) - Posts: 331 - 30/08/2017 13:40:55 2040729 Link
The Banty will be expensive. Co. Board wouldn't be on for spending that type of money for 3 reasons 1. They don't have it 2. They don't have the ambition to go and actually generate that kind of revenue 3. They don't have the ambition to appoint the caliber of manager required to sustain Div. 2 football and move football at county level onwards FBC (Louth) - Posts: 104 - 30/08/2017 13:58:12 2040740 Link
