But when one of our own done it he's laughed off as being not experienced enough? Not pro or anti anybody by the way just think its laughable the double standards.

If Waterford were to draw someone like Cork or Tipp at home, which they didn't have to cope with in 2019, there would likely be more away fans in the stadium than home ones due to season tickets. In fact there mightn't be many tickets left for non-season ticket holders at all. For the opening game last year, Waterford had 793 season ticket holders last year, while Clare had 1,170. I've seen before that well supported counties like Mayo have about 3,700 holders, while Dublin have about 7,500. Therefore Cork and Tipp could easily have 3k that would be guaranteed tickets for a game. Throw in the amount that must be guaranteed for players, officials and sponsors and you're left with very little, if anything, left at the end for the clubs.

The way this was played out was very poor. Hardly a professional & watertight process. Since when is Liz reddy the spokes person for Waterford GAA? Why did she know before any clubs? Didnt your daddy say “ the clubs are the county board “ repeatedly. Yet non GAA members are briefed on who is / isn’t getting the job. Sounds professional and well run to me.

If we are all being objective and being honest here, What other top inter county jobs would Peter Queally get? Honestly? There are 10 teams quoted for the all Ireland next year we are joint second longest odds of 25/1 (Dublin Same) Laois at 500/1 are next. I couldnt conceivably see him getting ANY other job assuming they were all there and he wanted it. Carlow or Kerry, maybe, Offaly probably. Is he really and truly the best man we can get? Or are we totally hamstrung by total lack of finances? Who is asking why are we forced to shop in the bargain basket? Why is it always the cheapest handiest effort? The local media to my mind have a lot to answer for in the lack of a robust challenge to the county boards failings over last 2 decades & in particular last 5 years. It’s a long list at this stage. It’s one excuse to the next & a never ending blame circle, devoid of leadership, innovation, entrepreneurial spirit, the characteristics that the Waterford teams of last 20 years were full of. If Queally is best we can really do, great I’ll wish him luck & be there supporting as per. The whole county is at tipping point, hard questions need to be asked & more over people need to be held to account for their actions or is most likely the case, their lack of actions.

Such as how are we financing this? Or should we say what well known person is! Why is our board a totally unsustainable business entity that allegedly needs handouts for us to do fundamental things like put decent mgmt teams in place! This is like the time people spent months congratulating the board for cutting the grass in Walsh park & having the place looking respectable / acceptable. Bread and butter stuff. These conversations don’t happen in any other county! Dunno much about Cahill, people in the know seem happy, so do players, that’s good enough for me, how they play I couldn’t care less once they are winning again, but I do feel Peter Queally was sent down the river. Again. Which he doesn’t deserve. A slap in the face to great serveant.

Stopitwillya wrote: » Another excellent post Giveitfong. I love reading your posts and usually agree with all you have to say. You have a great understanding of the game and like you I believe the likes of the Bennett's, Patrick Curran and Maurice are more than good enough if we played to their strenghts. Whoever you are, the new Waterford manager could do alot worse than have you on board in some capacity.
