You and Dellboy not seeing eye-to-eye nocky? I don't mind Dell most of the time, he can talk sense but he fairly digs in sometimes, especially on the GPA and professionalism. Your right on Evans by the way every county pays coaches.

This is the way forward for me. Employ full time managers/directors of football, whatever you wanna call them. Give them a full time salary and make it a full time job. They can look after the senior team during the season and during the off season they can go around the county coaching youngsters, promoting gaelic games, etc. I could see this working. Everything clear and above board

For your information Maigh eo, Tipperary have won more All Ireland Senior Football titles than Mayo. 4 All Irelands is better than 3 any day.

I couldn't care less about the past all I care about is winning an all ireland in the future.I encourage you to look to the future as well.Paying someone openly to do this job is only going to make the manager needlessly isolated from the rest of his backroom team.

You're completely missing the point maigh_eo, John Evans isn't being paid to manage the Tipperary senior footballers, he is being paid to coach young lads in schools.

Wasn't Jack O'Connor's predecessor in a full time Munster Council job while Kerry manager?

hurlingdub (Dublin) - Posts: 6978 - 13/01/2010 13:49:11    531853

I think O'Connor was also in a full or part time role with the Kerry county board.

Roundball,

You hit the nail on the head.

Dellboydub, delboypolecat and ta32 are the same person. The holey Trinity. Sent to earth to preserve and save the GAA from the marauding savages in the GPA. it will be them and their ilk who will save us all. Amen. God knows why he has to carry on this charade. They write the same, with no pronunciation. They even spell the same words wrongly and thiy post messages, backing each others arguement, within minutes of each other.

Tyrone Dell will not respond to me so he created these alter egos to reply. Pitiful really

As for dell's post. Clubs throughout Ireland have had officially paid coaches for years. I would love to see one example of his imaginary transfer market.

I have no doubt players have tranfered to certain clubs because of work. Some clubs can find good jobs for players and fair play to them. This will be more relevent in these hard times but that has been going on for years, ie USA, and our association is still alive and kicking.

GPA Abú

John Evans will no longer be entitled to receive mileage expenses after becoming Tipperary's new director of football.

The Killorglin man will combine his new role, which comes with a salary of around EUR45-50,000, with that as manager of the Tipperary senior, under 21 and intermediate teams. But he stands to lose as much as EUR12,000 per year in travel expenses, with the rate for managers and players now standing at 60 cent per mile.

For the last two years, the retired garda made the five-hour round trip from his Kerry base to Thurles at least twice a week, leading the Premier County to league promotion in both years.

He explained to the Irish Daily Star: "I stepped down from the travelling expenses that managers get. I am an employee. I am essentially a games promotion officer employed by the Tipperary county board.

"I am doing a lot of jobs which also embraces the senior, under 21 and intermediate teams."

Evans' new role is the first of its kind in the GAA and will be totally funded by the Tipperary county board, having been given the go-ahead by Croke Park over the Christmas period.

Judging by this I don't think he'll last long.5 hour trip between Killorglin to Thurles,then off to the school's,and then off to train the intermediate's/U21/senior team ??

If the man is any good he'll last about 2 year's,top's.Good luck to him all the same.If he was actually from Tipp,I'd think differently

Look thats tipp football.Do you really think we should be taking tips from them.

I'd be fairly confident of Tipp winning Sam before Mayo do.

think it is a positive move better off knowing who is getting what than what is happening now. id say about 80% of clubs are even paying there manager at this stage.

BEKO (Louth) - Posts: 78 - 13/01/2010 20:37:51    532372

Trust me lads I have absolutely no problem with county boards paying managers as I think it is a very difficult and time-consuming job and I believe the gaa should allow these payments.But I don't think that this step by tipp is such a revolutionary step seen as though other similar setups have been done in the past.And to the tipp lads that think they are more likely to win an all ireland than mayo,dream on
