With Fitzey in charge we are sure to have plenty to talk about.

There's plenty to work with in Wexford at present and if Fitzey can get Guiney back playing to his 2013 potential it will take a lot of the scoring pressure off Chin.

I think there is more in Conor McDonald if he is coached properly.

Is Andrew Shore due to make a comeback this year? Another player that could make a big impact.

Well in fairness, just back from his holiday, was down in Wexford for the last day or so and then travelling back, so tireness might be one part of it.

Time will tell

Davy wouldn't do the job unless he is 100% wants to do it.

Its not that we are desperate for him, but the players clearly believe in him and want him. That's the important part.

Listening to Davy on radio this morning and he came across so flaky and unsure and undecided...almost "Oh, sure I'll do it. Aren't I so great."

Are Wexford that desperate for his services?

They'll want to keep their powder dry for the big gig.

He said he will make up his mind in the next day or two. Said he had no contact about the Galway position.

Wonder could DJ take over now that he has left the KK U20's if Davy steps down ?

Lotta rumours circulating that Davy is away to Galway.

Let's hope they're not true.

Any Wexford Football supporter offer an opinion on David Power's term as football manager.

Tipperary has just appointed him but I am not impressed.

In fairness to him e came into it at a bad time with so many of the golden generation hanging up their boots.

However, I didn't rate him at all the play was terrible and they went backwards quickly as a unit. if he's any use it's over younger players not seniors.

Rumours that Davy is talking to Galway now. :eek:

Hopefully the county board have a plan B as we have the New York Hurling tournament in mid November & need management & selectors in place way before then.

Matty Forde has been confirmed as a selector for the footballers.

We better start selling more tickets in the Wexford County Development draw so.

According to the local Wexford paper called the "Wexford People" that came out today, Davy is expected to stay for another two years.

Heard talk that some of the players are trying to convince him to stay. But nothing more than that.

i imagine he will stay , the wexford lads have been up here a few weeks ago watching his club team sixmilebridge , he has also brought the sixmilebridge team down to wexford last week for challenge games , he is still holding on to his strong connection with the county

he is not in line for the clare job at the moment so i imagine he will stay where he is

Can't imagine who they'd go for if he steps aside.

Where to next for Wexford? Do we think Davy will stay or is he gone?

I'd imagine he will go, Leinster Champions so go on a high note, can't blame him if he does as all that travel is tough going and we are probably at our level at present. If we were to have a bad run next championship all will be forgotten from this season so get out now.

Looks forward to the board finding some one with '96 links if he does go just to cover their butts.

Paul Galvin confirmed as new football manager. Wow. Total left-field appointment that no-one would have even considered predicting.

Obviously has the pedigree as a player, and will garner the respect of the panel (should see more lads committing too), but you would be concerned about his acumen as a manager at this level, particularly it's his first job at this capacity.

I look forward to glorious ****housery from our half-forwards now though

Bizarre appointment. Has zero management experience at any level. Unless he gets a very good team around him and a top class coach, don't see it going too well.
When are county boards and people in general going to cop on to the fact that by and large, great players do not make good managers?

That being said, if interest in Wexford football gets a bump and players draw a bit of inspiration from Galvin's playing acumen, maybe there can be an improvement in short term.
