Really hope it will be an outsider, can not see anyone up to it from within. 2 big big issues for new manager, Concession of goals, 8 in championship, including 2 v Leitrim, 11 in League. Lack of consistently accurate free kick and 45 kicker. martinjoe (Mayo) - Posts: 599 - 04/09/2026 13:40:04 2692711 Link

Replying To Kickitout: "Personally I think they should definitely try get Jim Gavin. He mighr have no interest in getting back into management at all if not I' think Raymond Galligan would be my next choice i know he was there this year for few months but I think he could definitely make step up to manger job he would know the players ( which might be good ) also he know the ones he needs to call time on again only my opinion" Stop, good luck to them, Cavan Buck's Jellybaby (Dublin) - Posts: 387 - 04/09/2026 15:07:42 2692735 Link

Replying To smallfrank: "Internal Kevin O'Brien Kevin Walsh Gary Delaney Donal O'Flatharta Paul Conroy(other counties have done this) Anthony Cunningham Cathal Clancy Outside James Horan Jim Gavin Eamon Fitzmaurice Stephen Rochford Dessie Dolan That group of players need a Jim Gavin, someone the opposite to PJ and I don't mean that in a disrespectful way but just a total reset." All those outside managers, except for Dolan, are used to managing a certain level of player and competing for all Irelands. Don't know if Galway would interest them JimB1991 (Donegal) - Posts: 244 - 04/09/2026 17:13:26 2692759 Link
Taking Peter Cooke off in the Meath QF will be one of those decisions that haunts him. He was playing the football of his life. Not having Dessie to come on and take those frees with unbeaten accuracy was another grave mistake that cost us. The word is that it's already Jim Gavin. Padraig was a decent man by all accounts ; wish him all the best, he brought a lot of class and passion. I've great admiration and respect for him.

We need a manager who has been there and done it. Only one man for it and that's Jim Gavin. If he shows the slightest interest, we go for it. ahsure. (Galway) - Posts: 1797 - 04/09/2026 17:44:32 2692767 Link
