Both managers have won all irelands and multiple ulster titles. Both are more successful and arguably better than our own manager. If they are overrated what would that make mc geeney?
Is it time for change?

Donegal will be a lot harder to beat than last year that goes without saying, don’t think McGuinness is a miracle worker though and they won’t win Ulster. Derry will stay at a similar level at best with Harte

A lot of movement on the inter county management scene. Are there any "reliable" 
reports re Armagh back room team. Has anyone left/is anyone new coming in? Would someone like eg Malachy O'Rourke or Anthony Cunningham (I think he's with Portarlington at the minute) consider joining as a "no 2/assistant manager" with a view to taking over the following year. Do County Board plan like that or is it all just ad hoc/year to year?
Anyone know what date league fixtures will be announced?

What I'm hearing is that Derry are desperate for another McKenna Cup trumph

Considering Malachy O’Rourke wasn’t interested in the Derry job would make it highly unlikely he would have any desire to be working under someone else with a team that are not as good as Derry at the minute.A lot of movement on the inter county management scene. Are there any "reliable"

Guys like ORourke and Cunningham aren’t going to be backroom types. Fellas looking to get in to intercounty coaching, like Donaghy, would have been happy to have Armagh on his CV. That’s the sort of profile that would be attracted.

Killarney newspaper reporting than Donaghy will stay on with Armagh seniors, hope this is true but also hope Gilligan is brought in aswell (prob asking too much)

No point us fielding a team so, someone ring the county board and let them know.
Excellent chance at a league and Ulster double.

That’s not like you to say something like that, Bull

Stop being so negative. It is draining. You are just being contrary for the sake of it.

That’s madness.
The rules are, if he’s not called Ciaran or Kieran, he shouldn’t be allowed in.

But he is. It's Conleth "Keyrun" Gilligan. His friends call him Kieran although it sounds like Ciaran!
