It has not been released yet anyway. I doubt there will be many changes from the semi final.

Good to see Ciarán Fitzpatrick back in a Kildare team. I always thought he was a good defender. We're big outsiders for this match but hopefully we will go close. There are goals in that full forward line.

The cork full back eoin o mahony is there for the taking,as shown in the league game between both this year.

Hes poor even for junior.

All Ireland u21 A Hurling Championship Semi Final:

Kildare 2-11 Roscommon 2-10

Fantastic comeback after being ten points down at one stage early in the second half.

Junior footballers left themselves with too much to do in the second half. Very disappointing.

After the ****storm all this transfer caused seanie should be apologising to Kildare and Cavan fans and players alike..

He failed to make an impact on the Kildare panel which isn't surprising tbh as I rate our forwards better than him

Bye Bye SJ..... just McG to go now!

Well McGeeney mustn't have thought so prior to the transfer or he wouldn't of brought him over. And I won't drag up old debates but its not so long ago you thought he would be a key player for Kildare.

He's a better player than he showed for Kildare, or had the chance to show perhaps.

Was he even training with the panel up there or his 'supposed' club?

The whole thing was a mess start to finish. I've heard rumours that he has said that point he kicked against Tyrone will be his last kick of an intercounty ball so I hope he comes out and states that officially.

Would take pressure off Terry Hyland and attention which we don't need after a highly successful year.

Even the ladies have got us another trip to Croker! We'll never be out of the place at this rate!!

roy rodgers

Sarsfields won today 3-16 to 0-09 points. Goal of the season was scored from about 50 meter's out..

See seanie Johnston is heading back to cavan! Its an insult and a disgrace for Kildare gas and another reason why mcgeeney has to go.

McGeeney gone by one solitary vote.

Reports doing the rounds that geezer has been voted out of the Kildare managers job looking at losing the vote by 1 single vote.. Not confirmed yet but you heard it here first lads :O

Jesus just seen that... Shocking!!!

I am worried but excited at the same time

Lemlin

He should have jumped before he was pushed.

I wonder how much of an impact the Seanie debacle had in this, particularly as the stupidity of it all was highlighted this week with Seanie ending up back in Cavan at the Gaels.

Tbh lemlin I am embarrassed the way mcgeeney basically poached seanie he made a mockery of my county and it will take time for Kildare to move on from all that transfer bollix

Now Johnston made a mockery of Cavan which is worse IMO if I was a Cavan man I would never forgive him for it. Never mind what happened but when he realised he was surplus to requirements in Kildare he tried escaping back to Cavan.. He should be ashamed of himself tbh

klairondavis

Johnston was a low point but it should not overshadow the positive work done.

It's time for Kildare to move on from all of that now.

Possible candidates? Glenn, Murphy, Lacey, Sos, O'Neill.

Larries_Lad

Correct decision made. Did great things for Kildare football and that will never be forgotten but he had to go. Wouldn't like Glenn Ryan to get it or Dara O'Se (Heard he's being linked).
Jason Ryan surely is favourite for the job now.

klairondavis

I cannot see Jason Ryan getting it because of his involvement this year. Those close to him are adamant that he only wants a coaching role at the moment anyway.

No it won't.




I hope to god we made the right decision tonight. We got rid of Micko all those years ago because we "needed a manager to bring us to the next level". We ended up spending years in the wilderness and Micko went on to win a Leinster with Laois

I hope the same doesnt happen here. We have footballers coming through and Im not sure who the main contenders are to bring those along. Cian O'Neill, Glen Ryan, Brian Murphy and Anthony Rainbow are the main Kildare names in the hat, some combination of those three as a management team might have potential.

Are there any high profile people from outside the county knocking around?

klairondavis

I think it will be an internal candidate this time around.

Stoner

I agree I won't take long to get over it, you guys are owed a few players, I always wondered what Larry thompkins (spelling) would have done if he returned to kildare back in the very early ninties , I remember Dublin beating kildare a good bit back then due to inexperience on kildares part, he would have made a massive difference. I'd say he knows it too.

Kildare won nothing with Seanie so nobody can take anything away from you as a result of having him on the panel.

Players are not happy

Eamonn Callaghan ‏@leperleper 4m
I've never been ashamed in my life to be a Kildare footballer, until tonight!! #gutted

Eoin Doyle ‏@DoyleEoin 22m
Some county is going to be very happy in a few weeks time!! Sure what would the players know anyway #Disgrace #Gutted

Emmet Bolton ‏@EmmetBolton 25m
58 club delegates who have never seen us train went into a room tonight and decided what was best for us. They totally disregarded our 1/2

Emmet Bolton ‏@EmmetBolton 23m
Opinions over the last couple of weeks. A disgraceful way to treat a man who put so much heart and effort into Kildare football. 2/2

Alan Smith ‏@alansmith631 31m
Brainless fools

Emmet Bolton ‏@EmmetBolton 18m
Gutted that Kieran is gone. The effort that he put in over the last 6years is beyond belief. It was a privilege to learn and work under him.

Four clubs abstained from the vote and a number of the executive itself voted against the motion which was a one year extension.
