That will make election of Pope seem straight forward.

He has done great work with Louth. But then I think that great Tyrone man, Mickey Harte had set them on the right path. Louth have been getting results at minor and u20 nice and quietly over the past few years as well.

He'd be in the running alright. He's managed a couple of clubs and was involved with Carlow for a while. He's only a couple of years with Louth so not sure if he's quite ready for the pressure that comes with the Dubs job but he's made of stern stuff and I think would get the right people around him. It will be a tough gig for the next manager with legends like Clucko, Ciaran, Costello, Davey Byrne and Johnny Small likely to exit. Massive rebuild required and the financial doping at underage level isn't yielding results at the moment so no conveyor belt of talent either.

He'll be right in the running if he comes away with the Delaney Cup on Sunday however surely someone like Declan Darcy would be in with a shout? He might be happy enough over with Leinster Rugby but still...

Why he he leave Leinsters best team at Minor, U 20 and Senior to go to a team on the down That's a joke before anyone jumps in What he has done for Louth is remarkable since Harte left. Had 2 poor enough league campaigns but every game they needed a win in them campaigns we got them and comfortably enough too Leinster last year was a cakewalk up until the final in when we done well but we're never really going to win This year we played poor enough v Laois and Kildare, and apart from the first 20mins against Kildare we never looked like losing either game as when we need scores we seem to be able to get them handy enough I do think he will get the Dublin job myself but hopefully he leaves as a legend and who knows what else is possible this year if we get over the line tomorrow (we are every bit as good as Armagh especially since they don't have O Neill) DundalkGael (Louth) - Posts: 950 - 09/05/2025 16:22:22 2607860 Link 0 |

What a man and what a manager. There are only 9 people that have won Leinster as a player and a manager and he is the first to win it with two different counties. Ollie2 (Louth) - Posts: 1053 - 22/05/2025 12:50:14 2611735 Link 0 |

No doubt Ger Brennan has done a great job with Louth, but in sport you have to strike while the iron is hot. If the Dublin job was available after the championship, you'd have to think he'd throw his name in the hat. Why wouldn't he?

Yes I'd imagine at the end of this year depending on how dublin do if they get to an all ireland final well then Farrel will probably stay but if not Ger brennan to dublin and Fergal reel to take over the Louth seniors. Lúla571210 (Louth) - Posts: 119 - 22/05/2025 13:38:47 2611746 Link 1 |

If Dessie goes as expected at the end of this season then the job I'd say is Ger's IF he wants it. I would expect he will get offering the role and I think it'll be a case of having to take it for fear of it not coming around again. One thing in his favour is that there are no other standout candidates who are available and it will always be an internal appointment. I'd say Darcy might be the other name mentioned but not sure if he'd be prepared to leave his gig with Leinster rugby. Ger plus a quality back room team would be fine with me anyway!
