Jesus, Na they couldn't be that stupid to appoint Liam Hogan from Ballyboden. Now that would be a huge mistake.
i know a few Ballyboden players that think he a good coach but say his man management skill are shocking.
And if Bogman is correct and Danny Owens was never in the Running. We have a huge problem in the county.
from the point of view of other young managers coming through the ranks. looking to one day manage the county, There is no point in the like of Johnny Dooley, Martin Hanney or Brian Whelahan taking the time to manage a club in Offaly because no matter how good a job they do, the county board won't look at them because they only manage a club within Offaly.
But if they manage a club outside the county and improve that club and win a munster or an all ireland they almost be a shoe in for the Offaly job.
if the county board don't think Owens is the man for the job that ok. Then there is only one other man for the job and that Ken Hogan so they better get him. I know he said he not interested but go chase him and try to change his mind.
The Championship is over in Offaly. County Players should be back training already and the young players coming through that will be close to the panel should be back training with the county players.
The new Manager should have being appointed 8 weeks ago at this stage.
