(Oldest Posts First) - Go To The Latest Post


Done deal lads and it seems that what i am hearing Banty McEneaney will be the new Cavan manager. He will be named tomorrow afternoon. He will succeed Terry Hyland on a two-year stint which will keep him on until 2019. Gutted to be honest because i thought this was a time to get a good man in!!

A hell of a lot of noise coming out about Banty - one question; do the clubs need to ratify the appointment?

If this is right about Banty been d Cavan manager, I think this is a step back Banty will not b able to take Cavan forward. Terry Hylan has done great work what Cavan need is a man to take them to next level and believe me Banty is not d man.Monaghan would have no Ulster titles only for county board got rid of Banty and got Malacky o Rourke in.Monaghan county board turn this man down from getting d county minor job this year.i,m very surprise at Cavan county board and clubs to appoint this man.

It is to my belief that Mattie McGleenan is set to be appointed Cavan manager in the next 48 hours.
Banty also in running but McGleenan is their no1 target thankfully and should be appointed.
Think we have to be happy with him. Banty has run his course the game has moved on alot since he managed at top level.

Its a pity if the rumors are true about the Banty as the next Cavan Manager . I have noting personal against the man , but i don,t think he was the right choice for the job. I think he is at the same level as Hyland in there ability .

Yes Banty would be a disaster, Meath could not get rid of him quick enough.
Does nobody else want the job.

Mark my words we'll be in Div 3 before we know what hit us. There'll be songs written about the days of Terry

Plenty of interviews so someone wants it.

Lot of talk about Mattie Mc Gleenan so they say there is no smoke without fire. Is it possible a new manager might be unveiled today at the senior final. I hear talk that Martie McIlkinnen might be coming back as trainer that would be good news anyway but if my memory serves me right was he not with Banty with Monaghan???.

Marty McElkennon was with McEnaney in Meath as well. So one would suspect he will be back on board. Also Jason Reilly is meant to be a selector in Banty's team.

Mattie McGleenan would be my top pick for the top job at this stage. He has done a great job with Scotstown.

I said it in August and hold to it now.. McGleenan is the man for Cavan.
Seamus Mcenaney- one question, what has he won as a manager? Beaten in the first round 4 times in 6 years with Monaghan. Brought Meath to Division 3. Played McManus as a half back.
NO THANKS!!

Cavan chairman on the radio saying the announcement will be made tomorrow night and it's between Seamus McEnaney, Jack Sheedy and Mattie McGlennan. If Mattie got it, Cavan might not have him until March as Scotstown have a hell of q chance of winning Ulster. So can Cavan afford to have a manager not fully committed for the start of Division 1. So for that reason I think Seamus will get it

Banty would bring Cavan back to Div 3 in no time if he gets the job.

Well lads , I wouldn't be overly happy with Bantys appointment, cop out from county board, but he was at the county final to day in the terrace taking notes him and another guy.

yes he was on the terrace today but has he the job is the question. It would have to be clarified by the clubs. Monaghan turned him down for the minor job Meath could not wait to get rid of him so I expect Cavan will not be in a hurry to make a decision. I was talking to a chap today and he Banty and his four on his management team, two of them are local and a third was involved with Cavan before. Lot of talk about the Scotstown man

Hopefully Mattie McGleenan is in a position to accept the job he is the best of the three contenders for Cavan football.

Probably hoping against hope here, but s it possible that McGlennon has the job but can't take over until Scotstown are finished in Ulater/All Ireland series, and that an experienced man like Banty has been asked to take the reigns until then?

I doubt he would take such a short-term role (unless the money is astronomical) but that is the only capacity in which I want to see that man associated with the Cavan team.
