Donnie Buckley appointed to the backroom team, which is a positive. Unfortunately the feathered flapper remains at the helm. greysoil (Monaghan) - Posts: 836 - 23/12/2020 06:53:28 2325594 Link 0 |
Buckley is a great appointment as long as he is let do his job. There's no point of this being another cosmetic appointment of Banty and the Bantyettes. If the manager has the best interests of Monaghan football at heart, he should take the role of facilitator and let the talent take the lead.

A great coup for Monaghan but interesting to see how long Buckley hangs around.. I don't think it's feasible for a man hitting 60 yrs of age and living in Kerry to be driving an 8 hour plus round trip to Monaghan 2/3 times a week... not hard to know what his motive is... regardless of who comes in Unfortunately I think Father Time has caught up with Monaghan so unless we unearth new blood soon were going nowhere.. it all depends on the Ulster champ draw.. we need a handy straightforward run like 2020 to get a sustained run... mick2007 (Monaghan) - Posts: 278 - 23/12/2020 13:52:54 2325656 Link 1 |
Publicity stunt. How long is the man gonna stick the drive from Clare to Monaghan? About 5 months. There's no collective training until mid January. Our inter county season will be well over by June. One season wonder. moodoo (Monaghan) - Posts: 394 - 23/12/2020 17:54:48 2325710 Link 1 |
Another big ticket added to the county set up. Imagine the money been thrown at the county set up last year and this for big ticket, outsider names and what this could do if it was invested in full time employees to improve all of Monaghan football for now and the future? More full time specialist coaches to get involved at clubs and all county squads. TheJackel (Monaghan) - Posts: 7 - 05/01/2021 12:40:17 2326097 Link 0 |
Strange appointment by the Banty. Gary Rodgers no doubt has been a great goalkeeper at soccer but does he have the experience of Gaelic goalkeeping coaching. As far as I have been told the 2 are quite different in coaching terms especially now with Gaelic so dependent on kick outs. Newboy3 (Monaghan) - Posts: 5 - 05/01/2021 20:43:45 2326200 Link 0 |

County board coffers must be in healthy shape with all these high profile appointees. seanie08 (Monaghan) - Posts: 1505 - 06/01/2021 15:24:13 2326307 Link 0 |
Rodgers has coaches with 3 County teams previous to this. Also during Malachys term as manager we also had a dundalk GK coach for Rory although I am open to correction. Rodgers could well be a great appointment MonaghanGlory (Monaghan) - Posts: 702 - 06/01/2021 18:43:46 2326348 Link 0 |

Interesting appointment - don't know much about him but hard not to be impressed by Dundalk in recent seasons so why not! OrielPower (Monaghan) - Posts: 106 - 08/01/2021 15:38:50 2326658 Link 0 |
Monaghan have had Steve Williams as goalkeeping coach for the last 5 or so years. Williams played with the top Shelbourne team in the early 2000's winning 5 league titles. Was Dundalk goalkeeping coach for the last few years also until he left the club at the end of the current season. He is now Goalkeeping coach with Louth for the 2021 season. shaggylegend (Monaghan) - Posts: 1853 - 09/01/2021 08:48:09 2326759 Link 4 |
Was thinking the same, didn't even know Williams had such a role at the time until I read an interview with Rory which mentioned him, and Rory credited him with bringing on his own game alot. patk (Monaghan) - Posts: 875 - 10/01/2021 15:08:00 2326886 Link 0 |
