I think you've just described every manager that ever existed there brayballer. For the record, I have great time for ger Brennan. He got stuck in as a player and he comes across as a sound man and enjoy listening to him. I'd have him all day long over jim gavin. I can only speak for myself when i say I would stick by JmcG through thick and thin because of what he's done for our county over the years. He's always going to have legendary status here, same as MM. Jim has been through an awful lot in his younger life and he is an outstanding person to have come through it and achieved what he has. He has a genuine love of his county, beyond what a lot of people have and I do believe he is genuine when he instills in his players that they are doing it all for the people of donegal. That's maybe not easy to understand if you're not from here and only see the odd interview after a match etc.
