needs time !!!!! ya they need another five years to look at paddy in goal and a lot of other players too. too many mistakes this year which is unforgivable. this is meath we are a football mad county that deserved better then this. the only thing is wrong in meath about a outside manger is the meath people themselves thinking we can do it better ourselves and don't need help form outside which of course we are doing a great job NOT

I might add to Royaldunne saying Ye bet Roscommon. Yes that is true but over 30 minutes when both teams had first 15s out Roscommon were a few ahead until loads of changes and we had done two hard full days training in Johnstownhouse before hand.

An over rated Galway? Is this the same over rated Galway who absolutely destroyed at team who knocked Ye out in your own home pitch? No Mate Ye would still be knocked out because Meath have very poor players at present and a very poor manager

if you are reading I have said Donegal are poor and there is people on here saying meath have improved and I have said they have not. look if meath were to play Dublin in the morning we lose by any thing from 25 to 30 points roscommon would lose by 15 to 25 points so don't get too far ahead of yourselves. mayo were six points up yesterday and started looking at themselves and saying how good they were you could see it the way the players were walking around. Galway today think that they are going to win the double and kerry comeing along next week so stop with the $ we know where we are at in meath we don't need you comeing along and telling us

Seems like this thread is not actually about Bernard flying at all, bit another excuse to set up another thread to have a go at the current management.
Please be more inventive when planning a ruse like that in future.

A certain Mr. S. Boylan might just disagree with you on that one. A glass bowl was all he had to show for the first three years in charge. He didn't do too badly after that.

Aside from the o'byrne cup which no one takes seriously, we compete for three pieces of silverware annually- the (division 2) league, the Leinster championship and the all-Ireland. And I can tell you now that andy Mc entee won't be winning either of the last two next year. And you can change managers every two years if you like, but we still won't be winning either of those if you do. Our only realistic chance of winning anything next year is the league, and not winning it would not be a big deal if we got promoted. Our best chance of winning Leinster in the next 10 years is to find a decent manager, and stick with him for 3-4 years minimum. That is exactly what we will be doing.

Don't know any mcatay but if Ye had mcstay Ye might have made progress this year instead of going back which is what happened

Hmmm I think there could be something to be gained by involving motivational characters in the background staff. Knowing Bernard, I actually think that this could be a challenge which he would relish. He is all to well aware of what it takes to win, the effort involved, he has the winning mentality.. I dont think by suggesting that bringing Bernard on board is in any way trying to take away from the current management - if there is any possibility that the team can improve in any small way by recruiting experience then we should go for it !!

I'm sure the current squad would relate better/more to players from the 96-99 era than the 87-88 one (before many of them were even born).

Bernard as much as hero he was back on the day he's not going to be able to offer this team much that others like Gerry and Andy can't already do.

In terms of managers with winning records on their CVs, of those genuine Meath men available to us there is no one like Andy McEntee.

The problem is the lack of talent at senior level and it's as simple as that and it's been that way since 2002. What's happening at underage at the moment is hopeful but i don't think there much anyone can do with the current senior crop other than work on improving strength and conditioning, stamina and so forth. If we can find an edge there we might win a couple more games a year but we haven't the talent to turn that into silverware.
