OK I will be accused of bias but Mickey's record at under age & senior level puts him up there while Sean Boylan HAS to be included in any final list. Lifting a poor underperforming Meath squad to All Ireland success was brilliant. Sean Boylan for me.

249002 Micko Dwyer,Mickey Harte,John O Mahony?



You really putting O'Mahony in the same sentence as those 2?? Much as I hate to admit it but Sean Boylan should be up there 10 miles ahead of him. Joe Kernan too for all the Ulster titles and 1 All-Ireland title as well as his time with Cross.

Overall though for me it's Mickey Harte as he has won his 3 All-Irelands more closely together in time (indicating consistency) and against a much more competitive environment than O' Dwyer.

Mick O'Dwyer, Maughan, Heffo, Hanahoe, O'Mahoney, Martin McHugh, O' Flaherty, Ryan, Brian White, Mickey Harte, Liam Bradley,loads of them.

But O'Dwyer stands out for doing it with many teams. McHugh has an amazing record as he sort of manages only now and again.

unfortunately that is the wrong answer jailhouse.usa. The correct answer is in fact Mickey Harte.

Has to be Micko, not only his achievements with Kerry, but fact he won Leinsters in Kildare and Laois. When he wins the Leinster with Wickla then he will achieve Sainthood!

What a rediculous argument !! If that is your argument you went with the wrong manager.
