Paschal Kellaghan confirmed with coralstown Kinnegad
Pat Flanagan confirmed with ballinabrackey in Meath
Declan kelly almost confirmed with sarsfields of Kildare
Peter Brady with Johnstownbridge Kildare

Question is why are all the county’s top managers leaving for other counties.

Anymore updates on Offaly clubs ?

Flanagan to Ballinabrackey is a big one, the Bracks haven’t won a game in the 2/3 years they have been up senior apart from relegation games! It will be a challenge for sure, interesting to see how he gets on

Any chance he gave them a team talk like this on his first day there?

They must have great plans for all this money in the next life perhaps?

I would hope Pat releases a statement to set out why he left.

After careful reflection....Brought the group as far as he could...A fresh voice in the dressing room needed...Thanking all the club officials for their support throughout his time there and reflecting on the friendships made.

Nah, I'd keep it simple. Wheel out the ol reliable "work and family commitments" statement and leave it at that.
That statement has never once been questioned.
It's genuinely sad what has become of the GAA. Sending the tax man in would be a good place to start trying to trying to clean it up maybe?
