Replying To yew_tree: "I'm no fan of the the CB but let them at it. This very public managerial selection process is embarrassing. Some of our fans think they have a right to know absolutely everything that goes on. I much prefer the "behind closed doors" approach and not "airing your laundry" in public approach. As ever there is a fascination with all things Mayo GAA from within and outside the county." it just seems that the whole process is taking a long time. As far as the County Board goes i think everything they do should be public, I have absolutely no faith in them. My opinion. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 611 - 18/08/2022 18:11:32 2437947 Link

Replying To cluichethar: "it just seems that the whole process is taking a long time. As far as the County Board goes i think everything they do should be public, I have absolutely no faith in them. My opinion." They have finally got it over the line. I'd say McStay is as shocked as the rest of ye. Thank God... we can all now get on with our lives....

McStay confirmed be interesting to see how he fare. For one a far strong management team behind him than he had with Roscommon, one we wouldn't be able to afford. The_analyser (Roscommon) - Posts: 4192 - 22/08/2022 20:30:55 2438317 Link
McStay finally got it. Only 25 years in the making The have a basketballer, tackling specialist, the Mayo tinkerman and a man who knows the club scene very well with a good TV performer managing the lot. Weather they can teach a few forwards to kick the ball over the bar is the whole different story tirawleybaron (Mayo) - Posts: 1633 - 23/08/2022 08:15:28 2438325 Link

Jeez, the County Board never ceases to surprise ;) Best of luck to McStay and his team, hopefully they can get the best out of the team, which hopefully stays injury-free for once. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 23/08/2022 09:44:41 2438334 Link
4 year term ? And bringing back lads who there already? The circus continues... Belclare (Galway) - Posts: 904 - 23/08/2022 11:08:41 2438358 Link
A bit of continuity with Done Buckley involved. I thought Mayo would have wanted a clean slate. The players were opposed to having Liam McHale involved when McStay went for it previously FoolsGold (Cavan) - Posts: 2904 - 23/08/2022 11:10:13 2438360 Link
4 years so no point holding on to o shea, Mc Loughlin and Keegan.. with shoulders following shortly Belclare (Galway) - Posts: 904 - 23/08/2022 11:37:53 2438367 Link
Replying To Belclare: "4 year term ? And bringing back lads who there already? The circus continues..." How is that a circus? Fresh manager, coaches who know the set up. One of the strongest management teams in the country. They have to be favourites for Connacht now. MachaireConnacht (Roscommon) - Posts: 1000 - 23/08/2022 11:41:45 2438368 Link
I can tell ye one thing. McStay won't be influenced by any of the players and if they don't like it , no one will be crying after them. Ros2013 (Roscommon) - Posts: 570 - 23/08/2022 11:45:09 2438369 Link
Great news for all other Connacht counties and Sunday Game audience. crafty (Galway) - Posts: 270 - 23/08/2022 11:50:44 2438375 Link
Replying To FoolsGold: "A bit of continuity with Done Buckley involved. I thought Mayo would have wanted a clean slate. The players were opposed to having Liam McHale involved when McStay went for it previously" That was the rumour but most of those players have moved on. 2014 is a long time ago in footballing terms. Dempsey would have been preference but time to get behind them now. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11807 - 23/08/2022 11:58:07 2438377 Link
Galway and Cavan posters making negative comments on McStay /McHale/Buckley already, they must be getting nervous . jacktheboy (Donegal) - Posts: 513 - 23/08/2022 12:20:16 2438382 Link
Replying To Square_B: "They have finally got it over the line. I'd say McStay is as shocked as the rest of ye. Thank God... we can all now get on with our lives...." Not one bit shocked it was McStay. I figured with the four names that were in the hat it would be him that would come out. It's now his time to put up or shut up. The bonus is we won't have to listen to him commentate or do punditry for 4 years. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 611 - 23/08/2022 13:24:41 2438402 Link
Replying To jacktheboy: "Galway and Cavan posters making negative comments on McStay /McHale/Buckley already, they must be getting nervous ." I can understand Galway fans having a go but what's up with Cavan. One would think they'd be more worried about you up in Donegal. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 611 - 23/08/2022 13:29:35 2438404 Link
The journey starts again, this time McStay is the tour guide. cluichethar (Mayo) - Posts: 611 - 23/08/2022 13:41:24 2438410 Link
