Ignore the "sure anyone would win an all ireland with them players" syndrome that kerry managers have to deal with. joncarter (Galway) - Posts: 2692 - 28/04/2015 16:10:55 1718573 Link 0 |
I wouldn't get too excited about John Evans yet. He won a div 2 title with a county that has one 4 of the last 6 Connaught U21 titles (the two that they didn't win went to the eventual all ireland champs). Roscommon have the best underage set up in the country per head of population (alongside Cavan). They have flopped repeatedly in the senior championship over the past few years. If they don't do something this year he could get the chop like he did in Tipperary. tirawleybaron (Mayo) - Posts: 1125 - 28/04/2015 16:20:56 1718583 Link 0 |
You can't really rate managers like you can teams. It's all relative as teams are different standards. Plasticman (Dublin) - Posts: 26 - 28/04/2015 16:40:54 1718601 Link 0 |
Greenwood if/when there is ever another committee set up to find a new manager, i don't want ANY of the ones that were on the last one within a asses roar of it. They made a balls up , and have never been called to explain there decision. No logical person could have gone with the set up when you had a blatantly better qualified option. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 28/04/2015 17:20:07 1718632 Link 0 |
John Evans has taken a train that has been in motion for a while now - minor, under 21 successful teams over the last number of years. Ban (Westmeath) - Posts: 1415 - 28/04/2015 17:58:35 1718648 Link 0 |

Cant understand the Mc Geeney thing. Kerry manager is tops followed by Dublin manager and then Malachy O Rourke at the minute. going back Mickie Harte was tops but sadly he has lost his winning ways, Jim Mc Guinneas was great too, border Gael (Monaghan) - Posts: 894 - 28/04/2015 21:25:38 1718745 Link 0 |
Honourable mention for Rory Gallagher, not easy keep that ship afloat after the death in the family and they way his charges took us 'unbeatable' Dubs apart last Autumn!! realdub (Dublin) - Posts: 8596 - 28/04/2015 21:30:39 1718749 Link 0 |
Flopped repeatedly? No we lost to good Mayo sides that were expected to win and even the Armagh side that beat us last July got within one point of Donegal who were very close to winning another AI. ispeakwisdom (Roscommon) - Posts: 2487 - 28/04/2015 21:33:32 1718753 Link 0 |

Eamonn Fitzmaurice for certain now that McGuinness and Horan have stepped away. They both had their flaws but Donegal and Mayo were laughing stocks pre-2011 and contested the Final in 2012. roundball (Tipperary) - Posts: 2514 - 29/04/2015 17:14:42 1719021 Link 0 |

Its Jim Gavin and Fitzmaurice are the two most popular here! Question is how would they both do with lets say Kildare and Galway? sportsfan14 (USA) - Posts: 281 - 29/04/2015 17:34:08 1719032 Link 0 |
John Evans by a mile starting with his stint with Tipperary, the rest is self explanatory, yes John Evans. Cuhullain (Kildare) - Posts: 271 - 29/04/2015 19:43:46 1719074 Link 0 |
Eamon Fitz, he won an AllIreland in his 1st year and beat Donegal are their own game, he is the reigning unbeaten champion manager, followed by John Evans and then Jim Gavin but that is mostly due to the large pool of quality players he can choose from riverboys (Mayo) - Posts: 1389 - 29/04/2015 21:45:27 1719098 Link 0 |
