You are a great man for giving advice , it's about time you and your fellow club member(that's if you are one) come together and nominate Jim. You obviously know the man well no harm in a wee phone call..forget about Mc entee not good enough as he has shown with Sligo. There was plenty of talk when bonner was in charge from a certain ex player maybe he should be asked but he'll probably go into hiding now till the manager is picked, or maybe he'll get Banty and a few friends to form a management team.

Declan deserves nothing but respect for his great service to the county over many years. The time had come for him to move and that's life -no great dramas about it. Samsforthehills (Donegal) - Posts: 1070 - 21/07/2022 14:52:48 2433386 Link 0 |
This is a great point you make, whatever manager comes in needs to be able to pick the players on form and pick them in the position he feels is best for the team. As you say some players were picked regardless of form or injury. Also the players cannot be allowed to pick the new manager, another recipe for disaster.

Presumably the ex player you are talking about it McHugh? A lot of people would love to see him involved in a managerial capacity at some point. But don't forget, like Bonner, he (and his sons) have given a lot to the county. If he doesn't go for it that's his choice and should be respected. He doesn't owe the county anything.

At the moment probably the best manager available is Gary Mc daid. Very knowledgeable if he got a good backroom team round him, I think he's the surprise packet plus he might get Murphy back for another year.. rorysboys (Donegal) - Posts: 2364 - 21/07/2022 16:12:33 2433421 Link 0 |
Farewell to Declan. Thanks for the sacrifice of time and energy. StockholmGael (Donegal) - Posts: 104 - 21/07/2022 17:19:33 2433441 Link 1 |
Unfortunately the county board probably won't have the luxury of setting criteria for the new manager. They'll have to pick from the 2 or 3 who let their name go forward for the job. Hope I am wrong.

I dont know about mcdaid for the Donegal job, but i definitely believe you should apply for the job going at duffy's circus. If we listened to you we would have john joe back Leave it to people that know what there talking about. Some of the names mentioned here would make me laugh.

Bit silly the way Bonner is saying he knew after the Armagh game that his time was up but said nothing till now, it's obvious he is just trying to rewrite history. Tirchonaill1 (Donegal) - Posts: 2705 - 21/07/2022 21:24:49 2433471 Link 1 |
Many will try only but the best will succeed Keeper, hopefully we get the best manager in place that we can find to get us back on track again.

Glad to know you must be a n mhuire man. How did John play. I heard yous win. Probably your last win this year. Did you watch prime time. Very quiet on here.

I'm not sure if John was playing, he didn't stand out if he was. Maybe you should spend more time training and less on here. Another year in the doldrums for you. Naomh muire will enjoy playing intermediate football, you should call down for a game if you want to see what it's like. peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 780 - 24/07/2022 10:50:32 2433850 Link 0 |
Very quiet on here indeed. SouthOfTheGap (Donegal) - Posts: 550 - 24/07/2022 12:12:36 2433864 Link 1 |
You still think I'm a na rossa man. If I want to see good football I'll not be heading to Naomh mhuire lad. . Yous should be beating a junior team like na Rossa well if yous want to be competitive in intermediate.. the big rosses team will put manners on yous.

Nice to see eoin ban and Murphy having high praise for bonner. That's from people who know and worked with him. Very popular with the players. rorysboys (Donegal) - Posts: 2364 - 24/07/2022 12:24:44 2433868 Link 1 |
Of course i don't John :) Is that same big rosses team that were beaten by Letterkenny Gaels (both senior and reserve) at home last night? peiledoir20 (Donegal) - Posts: 780 - 24/07/2022 14:36:34 2433892 Link 0 |
We'll see come championship who the top dogs are. Employ your league lad. Wasn't it nice to see two top players praising bonner. Legend. What about your man for the job.

As per usual, there is complete silence about what individuals are on the 3 man panel. Hopefully the county board come out and name them. The keeper (Donegal) - Posts: 687 - 24/07/2022 15:22:18 2433907 Link 1 |
