Replying To 222:  "I thought senior players ran him out in 2022. Very suprised if it goes this way AGAIN. It was a very average three year term from 2020-22 even with his high profile back room teams. Any reason on here why vinnie left? I was sure he'd see out the three year term."
The reason? Refer to the link below, and then put 2 and 2 together...

I would last longer in a ring with Prime Mike Tyson than Monaghan would in a game off football in 2024.

I think the Derry County Board were kite flying by putting out rumours of Rory Gallagher returning to the Derry job. They now know which way the wind is blowing. But Banty is well used to playing against the wind and he will back Gallagher to the hilt.

Unpopular opinion : winning a match 10 points to 6 is better than winning and conceding 2-21.The art of defence is gone in 2024.

I know which game I'd rather be at and it wouldn't be the one with 16pts….. It's dour defensive games like that that's driven thousands away from the game… but if that type of game floats your boat… your welcome to it… You won't have any problem getting a ticket that's for sure….!

Replying To latefortraining:  "Nobody wanted the job before Vinney took the reigns, and i do think anyone with an impressive cv beating the door down in Clogan to take the job.
Brian Doher will more than likely step away from the Tyrone job as he has taken a new job with the minster of agriculture and Veterinary service NI
Derry are seeking a new manager. both are more appealing that the monaghan gig.
MOR will not be coming back to monaghan that ship has sailed.

Davey Burke former Roscommon is a possible shout.
Oisin McConville , would be another shout, has managed inniskeen, has cut his teeth with Wicklow and would jump ship for a job on his doorstep.
Tony McEntee , Sligo , again has he taken them as far as he can, does it fancy a new challenge closers to home.
James Horan Mayo , would be want to get back into Management."
I like the idea of Tony McEntee

Should John McEntee be considered?
Knows the Monaghan club scene.
Won the All Ireland as a player.
Impressive club manager record in management having won a county title with Clontibret against peak Scotstown.
Took Inniskeen to the club's first county final in over 30 years.
Ulster title with Cross and intermediate title with Cullaville

Woke nonsense is a bit of stretch...Call me a romantic all you want but I disagree here with a fair bit of passion...Monaghan is a Gaelic footballing county...moreso than any county in the country IMO when you consider soccer & rugby etc. Certainly more than Armagh and Dublin who both would have huge soccer and rugby areas...Other counties have hurling and so on but Monaghan is a proud footballing county that regularly produces high quality players that'll compete with anyone else on their day and we've picked up a few all stars as well as younger lads showing well in sigerson teams through the years
We are not a "limited" footballing county by any stretch and it infuriates me when people say that we are and that we need to play 15 men behind the ball and shut up shop is pure nonsense.
We'll never win an All Ireland with this negative opinion

Someting tells me that Armagh crop of 2002 players may not manage against their own county especially as a manager with a neighbouring county.

I'd be hoping when banty gets the job he adds a few corduff men to the panel, brilliant footballers and always play on the edge, could see 3-4 of them starting in division 2 next year

Alanis Mossisette called. She's interested in your position of both criticising woke nonsense and encouraging people to wake up in the same breadth.

Quite the achievement

Carry on.
