Club Managers 2024

[biffinbanner]

far from writing off tullamore. they are worthy 4/6 favs. and if bourke is back for latter stages 4/6 is good value!!

RE Bourke returning home to play - I'm pretty sure he won't be allowed to.

We saw Mark O Connor being allowed home to play all his club games but as far as I'm aware A) That was quite a rare and special thing Geelong did for him and B) He is an established player who has won a championship with Geelong.

Basically they don't allow a rookie to play a different sport. You have to be there a couple of years and earn your name so to speak before they even consider allowing that.

the young lad above from mayo is being allowed play with mayo but i guess hes younger and maybe not going for 6 or 8 months

[FullForward waster]

Anyone know what's what on the manager front. I'd assume all clubs have a managers in place at this stage? There has been a few confirmations in the papers ect...

Tullamore: McConway/ Rochford
Edenderry: Adrian Farrell
Ferbane: Georgie Digan? Is he confirmed??
Shamrocks: Nigel Dunne
Ballycommon: Shane Kelly
Durrow: ??
Clonbollouge: ??
Bracknagh: ??
Clara: Rouse
Rhode: Pascal Kellaghan

Does anyone know any confirmations on the clubs I haven't been able to nail down? Was chatting a lad from Bracknagh through work he said he thinks they are sticking with the same management. On the Durrow front I heard the hole set up is a shambles there, with selecting someone....


I'm not to aware of hurling set ups maybe one of the other guys will be able to confirm this.

Bracknah look set to stay with the same management team, and that’s no bad thing. They’re a seasoned, mature group at this stage and very settled. With very few county players, they play a huge amount of football together, which really shows during the league campaign. The chemistry they build gives them an edge over teams whose players are often pulled in different directions, and they’re always competitive and extremely hard to beat. Over the past few years they’ve run Shamrocks and Edenderry to a few pts. They’re not far away from a big win. Given the depth of their panel, there will be good days and bad days, but one thing is guaranteed: Bracknah will always be competitive. Lke I said i believe Their manager is staying on, and the players are very happy with him, which is another big positive.
Clonbologue, on the other hand, still have no word on their manager. Based on last year and the perception around the club, they may find it difficult to attract someone, but that perception doesn’t tell the full story. They have the best footballer in the county in Keith O’Neill, along with Jack Mcevoy who was having his best year for Offaly ,Add to that a strong group of very talented young footballers coming through, and they are far more appealing than many people realise. They come from a true footballing heartland where the game is lived and breathed. For the right person, this would be a very good year to get involved and it will be interesting to see who they manage to bring in.
Durrow will likely go down a different route. They’ll be looking for someone who is prepared to dance to the tune of Ballinamere hurling club and effectively operate in step with them. It will be a somewhat hand-picked appointment, not in a negative sense , but in recognition that Ballinameres priority is winning the senior hurling championship. The window to win that championship is really small and in truth the distraction of football is something that they know hinders them when trying to reach the Holy Grail, Durrow will want a manager who is willing to play ball and align with that objective, there will be no fractions this year as the new Durrow chairman has been involved with Ballinamere hurling teams in the past and I do think its great by both clubs to work together and stop the nonsense of playing one against the other. The problem is anything other than getting out of the weak group will be deemed not good enough so its a double edged sword.
Looking at the management teams already appointed, Clara will be a very hard nut to crack. They’re coming in with real momentum after winning Senior B and have an outstanding manager in John Rose. Once Clara get up and running, they’re always extremely difficult to beat, so it will be fascinating to see how they fare this year.
Ballycommon have brought in Shane Kelly, Mark Sheerin is with him they have plenty of experience at senior level and knows what it takes to win, having lifted senior football championships as a player himself. This is a group that looks ready to take the next step. They’re similar to Bracknagh in many ways, but probably further down the road in terms of development ,they are very, very close to a breakthrough. With excellent players and strong structures in place, Ballycommon will be targeting a strong 2026.
Rhode could well be dark horses for the championship, taht sound ridiculous considering they are such a successful club and always in with a shout. With nobody currently involved with Offaly, Pascal should be able to get a real tune out of them. It’s one of Offaly’s great footballing areas, and they’ll throw absolutely everything in 2026. There’s a lot going on for them, and Pascal and his management team should be able to unlock that potential.
Shamrocks, now under Nigel Dunne, will also be interesting to watch. He appears to have an excellent football brain and a charisma. They have a really strong team, and Nigel has effectively been the leader within the club for a long time. You’d expect him to make them competitive even in that group. Tough group with the top 4 in with them.
Edenderry have arguably gone all-in by appointing what many would call a dream management team. Just about everyone in Edenderry who has been involved in successful teams over the years is now part of the senior setup. That alone tells you they’re throwing everything at it. From speaking to people in Edenderry, their focus is crystal clear: wiping out the disappointment of last year’s capitulation as quickly as possible. They do tend to carry the weight of expectation they create themselves, but they have a strong playing group and an impressive management team now in place in Peter Brady who when we talk about aura and charisma is top of the pops, an icon of edenderry and Offaly, Greg Farrelley, Adrian Farrell, Colm Cummins, Michael Bryan and Ciarán Breen. That’s a decent ticket.
As for Ferbane, I genuinely think they can win the championship. Georgie Digan could be the missing piece not necessarily better or worse than Raff, but perhaps the right fit at the right time. He is experienced even though he is young, has worked with clubs in roscommon and obviously recently sallins who won and intermediate in kildare and then added the Leinster before falling agonisingly close against an Gaelteacht , he was over the offaly minors and this was always seen as his job at some stage. The time is now and the excitement is palpable,. Colin kenny and paddy moore with him and players coming back , Joe Maher, Ronan Maguire and potentially Leon Fox, Ferbane might finally make it fourth time lucky.
And then there’s Tullamore. Everyone else is playing catchup to them. With Rochford ( what a luxury for them to have as he has done it at the highest level)Mcconway, Lonergan, Niall Smith and the rest, they boast a top-class management team, a top-class playing group. The 2026 championship is shaping up to be a fascinating one.

Some interesting points on management, Some very good outlooks on each team and how the management selected suits them and their objectives.

One statement I find absolutely crazy. If it is the case is Durrow selecting a manager that is somewhat going to step aside and let the hurling do its thing. Its wild to think a club would do that. I'm not sure could it be the case. I'm not aware of any set up their or that but if that's the current chairman's (unaware who the chairman is??) objective one would have to wonder is Durrow best interest at heart. Possibly is the case hence why no manager in place but, I'm sure if it was some of the Durrow die hard would not be happy with this.
Last i heard from a local chap was they had Shane Curren in place but few were not happy. Don't think they can be too picky at this stage.

Players must be kicking up fuss is Durrow and Clonbologue with no one in place and league only a month away.

[DurrowBoy17]

Durrow have moved on from Cake.

I believe an ex-Westmeath player is in for the running of it now

Thanks Durrow boy for your response. Hope all works out for yous good potential their. Any truth in the above statement in the method of which way the management selection is going?

IE Chairman looking for an step aside let Ballinamere run with it??

Interesting take on a lot of things here.. Tullamore will be hard beat and id expect they will be better this year, they were not as good lasr year as they have been and hence ferbane gettin close.. i dont see ferbane improving under Digan, hes been around but as a stand alone manager he's relatively inexperienced and returning players dont always have the desired affect, couple of players who chose to play 2 grades down with their second team. Agree on Rhode i think they will be very close, after a lean patch they have improved at underage again and won junior a and u20 last year.. I dont see clonbullogue, bracknagh ballycommon, Durrow competing and i think clara will jump back up to 5th.. shamrocks are very hard to predict and dunican out for a while. But i think itll be pretty much the same old story with maybe clara reestablishing themselves.

[Thomas mc]

And whats going on in Durrow and what happened last year is a disgrace.. county board need to step in and stop situations like that happening.. sanctions against ballinamere/Durrow would be a good start. A points deduction for ballinamere would put a stop to it.

I also think Clara will do well in the 2026 Senior Football Championship.
The same4/5 teams will be in the mix for the title,

[FullForward waster]

And whats going on in Durrow and what happened last year is a disgrace.. county board need to step in and stop situations like that happening.. sanctions against ballinamere/Durrow would be a good start. A points deduction for ballinamere would put a stop to it.

Tullamore: McConway/ Rochford
Edenderry: Peter Brady
Ferbane: Georgie Digan?
Shamrocks: Nigel Dunne
Ballycommon: Shane Kelly
Durrow: ??
Clonbollouge: ??
Bracknagh: Ronan Murphy
Clara: Rouse
Rhode: Pascal Kellaghan

with the league just around the corner what way to people see it going here's my view:

Tullamore will be hoping to get their hands back on the cup after last years final. With a few out injured/ county commitments and Bourke gone it will be interesting to see how they fair out. This will give plenty of fellas the chance to put their hand up for championship.

Edenderry had a strong run in the league last year but did they peak to soon?? They have a strong management team and it looks like they will hit the ground running. I can imagine their main objective would be gaining one of the two top spots in group 1 of the championship.

Ferbane have been just a kick of a ball away from lifting the Dowling cup 3 years running. If the word on the street is true and GD has got some fellas back that have been absent the last few years then gametime for the will be top of the agenda for the league.

Rhode are the ones I think could be looking at getting their name back in the league title. With no one in the county set up they have a full panel to select from for the league. I'm not sure any other club in Division 1 has this situation. It will be interesting to see how they play out.

Ballycommom have a strength and depth in their panel but a few fellas playing rugby does hinder them this time of the year. I am interested to see how they go but Group 2 in the championship is their main objective and securing one of them quarter final spots. Side note will be interesting to see how Kelly goes with a team fully committed. A few strong performances in the league will be their main goal to build on for Championship.

Shamrocks have a tough one. Some injuries, county players and Nigel retiring is hard on a team with a small selection. When all back and fully fit they wont be easy. Nigel's main aim will to be feed players with gametime and be able to build on it come championship. They are in group 1 in the championship and its this that they will hope to peak for.

Clara have a nice panel and have some strong juniors that will look to make the step up. The league gives them a perfect opportunity for this. With Rouse in charge again you'd expect nothing else than solid honest performances from them. First time coming up to senior championship this year in a while but they certainly know how to get the job done.

Clonbollouge is much the same as Bracknagh getting strong performances in the league is what they will be looking for. Group 2 in the championship is a dog fight group with every team capable of beating one another. This is what they will be looking at.

Durrow where to start? I've referenced the above quote as i agree with some of it, but lets not forget the ex county chairman was involved in said situation. It was his time to step up and put and abrupt stop to it. In hindsight they should have played the football you'd think as KK gave them a schooling in the Qfinal I've no involvement with them but do know someone in the locality. Its a mess seemingly still no manager and his words ''Im not even sure have they trained in football yet''
You'd have to wonder is the right man looking for management team given is ex involvement with Ballinamere??
very hard give them an objective when no management in place.

[jimbob17]

Any update on Clonbullogue or Durrow managements? The leagues will be starting fairly soon I'd imagine.
