Replying To AthboyCelt: "I just hope those clueless buffoons that were involved with ratifying MOD last year are suitably shown the door also. Crazy decision that just wasted a full year of any possible progress being made." Agree 100%, crazy decision at the time and that has been proven this year. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 11/07/2016 16:09:59 1881067 Link
Replying To RedMeath12: "Andy McEntee won't go near the Meath job.." Why? Maybe I am naive but Andy must be at least a warm favorite. The Co. Board must act quickly to get the new manager in place. oldsam_newsam (Meath) - Posts: 638 - 11/07/2016 16:13:40 1881072 Link
Replying To browncows: "It seems all the Dublin media including the Dub on the Sunday game would give him the job -no interviews necessary. Maybe we should have some of our own experts Ziggy and Dunboynelad as selectors." The same crowd that have seen what he's done there, what's your point? Who do you want as I have no idea what your angle is? dunboynelad (Meath) - Posts: 227 - 11/07/2016 16:16:13 1881073 Link
The reappointment of MOD last year and the big drop in sponsorship funds (if that has come to pass) are two major blunders the CB should be held to account over. Complacency and incompetence. GlasagusOr (Meath) - Posts: 1348 - 11/07/2016 16:38:56 1881096 Link
Manager should be appointed immediately with little delay. Writing was on the wall for MOD for a long time. Surely we have succession plans for our county managers? bert09 (Meath) - Posts: 1790 - 11/07/2016 16:40:02 1881097 Link

Replying To oldsam_newsam: "Agree 100%, crazy decision at the time and that has been proven this year." Totally agree, but the people to blame are every clubs delegate who voted MOD back in and didn't look for change. Redsalltheway (Meath) - Posts: 116 - 11/07/2016 17:14:14 1881131 Link
Well lads after a long (yet short) season it's back to the drawing board. Very disappointing way to end the season but I'm sure there's enough talent for future success. MO'D deserves credit and I hope that in future we realise that. Having said that, change is needed, along with a step back to look at how Meath football can move forward. The county board should think about that while on their holidays and make changes. Speaking of which - I'm off to Thailand next week, anyone been?

Andy mac for me. Gerry could get involved too and he worked with Moyles before so he could be brought in aswell. But regardless of who the new manager is, some of these players face an uncertain few months MarkMyWords (Meath) - Posts: 498 - 11/07/2016 18:15:07 1881192 Link

Replying To oldsam_newsam: "Excellent suggestion and I would add GG to that but perhaps Andy has a backroom team he wants to bring a la Jose Mourinho. I am not well enough up to know that one." Look for me Andy, Sean and GG would be the dream ticket, but I wouldn't hoist anyone on Andy, if je was comfortable with that, then hallelujah. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 11/07/2016 19:03:42 1881232 Link
The biggest problem is the stooges clubs are sending to the county board as delegates, these are often sent out of the club to get them out of the way. However if Andy Mc is nominated he should accept it. As a Meath man there is no greater honour than representing your county be it as a player, or a manager. If he were to take it and certain people were making things difficult then he could go public on it. Personally I can't understand why anyone would want to hinder the teams progress as it serves no purpose in the end. Just on a side point centres of excellence do not produce sensational footballers rather they produce athletes with some football skills. players like Giles Fay GG were exceptional footballers something you cannot train. atta (Meath) - Posts: 698 - 11/07/2016 19:20:08 1881247 Link
See Cian Ward is the latest to give nod to Andy McEntee, of the current panel I would only see Keoghan, Tobin, Harnan, O Sullivan and McEntee (expect him to make the grade) as safe, the rest have a lot to prove to whoever gets job. seadog54 (Meath) - Posts: 2142 - 11/07/2016 19:46:46 1881273 Link

Seems to be the spine of the team.. Lads will have to step up to the mark... I wouldn't say there's a great deal of players from the club scene that should be nailed on starters. But as first 15s are concerned I'd be nervous for the some players. Royalio11 (Meath) - Posts: 757 - 11/07/2016 20:10:48 1881298 Link

Do we expect McEntee to be nominated? ziggy32001 (Meath) - Posts: 8354 - 11/07/2016 20:16:44 1881311 Link
I'd like to see Andy Mcentee, Shane Horgan, and Moylsie take up the reigns bert09 (Meath) - Posts: 1790 - 11/07/2016 20:17:40 1881316 Link

That kind of crafty planning would've been enough to beat the Dubs ;) JohnJoeRoyal (Meath) - Posts: 56 - 11/07/2016 20:19:43 1881321 Link
