Replying To nearlymadeit:  "Maybe its time you put your name forward for one of the positions if you feel that you can make a differance no I dont think you will not enough money in it for you , And thats the same as our so called great coaches and club men in our county how much can I get out of it, they are pricing themselves out of the market and county board has no choice in looking elsewhere for people to do the same job. I was talking to a club delegate as his club man was asked to come in to the set up and he said he wouldnt do it as the money was not good enough and would be better off staying with a club , seems to me its all about money for these lads and they have no pride in helping our county ."
For your information I did 6 years with 2 different development squads from U13 up to minor and never got a penny for it and never asked for any. No interest in being involved at county board level but I have seen first hand that if your face don't fit you don't get asked to get involved with senior county teams.

Any young, up and coming coach/manager would be crazy to get involved with Westmeath given how they treated Adrian Moran recently! No thanks from county board, no pathway for progression to senior/U20 as has happened in Dublin, Donegal, etc as mentioned by previous poster. I would feel most people are more loyal to their club first and are more likely get involved with their club before Westmeath under age development squads.
