Alongside Hennelly who is the next keeper to step in? Knockmore keeper seemed decent in the championship, Bryne from Cbar has been "tried" but never got a foot in and who else is there?

Roscommon's 2nd choice keeper Paddy O Malley? Was the Mayo U20 in 2018, then again Horan doesn't seem to rate him?

Conor O'Malley has indicated as well that he would like to have a go at becoming the Mayo number 1.

Was it not reported somewhere that Conor O'Malley had committed to a league of ireland team? Could he get a shot with Mayo without being affiliated with any club?

Wasn't that Schlingerman?

He'd have to be a member of a club. I'd imagine that he'd throw he lot back in with his home club in Westport.

I remember Schlingerman alright, but i thought O'Malley was a similar story.

Did he play any club championship with Westport last year?

Where did you hear that as if lee is gone there is something wrong .

muddle84 · 06-01-2021 06:15PM

According to whatsapp messages flying around from "inside sources", Colm Boyle tomorrow, Higgins Friday and Chris Barrett on Saturday.

I call BS on Keegan but sure why not he has done everything else, #thingsleedid!!

If he is gone then we are back in the Ballyheane club house territory again!

Have heard the Lee Keegan rumour myself. Would think he has another year or two left, but he has had bad problems with his hips going on a couple of years now and also has a young child, so maybe he does want to leave.

If it is the case that three more go on consecutive days then the likes of Brolly will have a field day talking about stage managed retirement messages to massage egos etc.

It’s like the horror version of that Craig David song....

“David Clarke gone on Monday, Vaughan out on Tuesday, Parsons gone by Wednesday, Boyler out the door on Thursday, Higgins left by Friday”

I don't think any self respecting Mayo fan has any business reading or caring what Brolly writes. He belongs with Waterford Whispers.

There is one thing for sure .
Dinosaurs of the game including all of the rte panel . Orourke, Spillane, brolly are so out of the modern game that they rely on sensationalism to keep them in a job . Well done RTE . The prawn sandwich of analysis .

Bring in Oisin Mcconville ,even our own b joe etc for some decent analysis please

Came on here to see who walked the plank today and found no one has so far.

I saw Brolly on Tommy Tiernan Show recently (probably a repeat), and whether it's an act or he genuinely believes it, he was of the opinion that RTE cast him aside because he refused to toe the corporate line and spew out stats, and that he's the last defender of the everyman who loves to have opinions good and bad about football.

None of that is true about him. He was cast aside because rather than attack poor performances and decisions on the field, he attacks people's character and integrity. His comments about Rachel Wyse and Marty Morrissey alone would have had him in trouble in most places. He sometimes mumbles half an apology only to go and do it again. Anyone who needs to attack someone's character to boost his own, isn't worth listening to.

Never liked Brolly since I think it was the week before the 2012 final where he wrote a hatchet piece for the Sunday Indo about Mayo.

He basically said Mayo played the game in a manner that was beyond the rules of the game and the ref should be aware of it in the final. Clearly trying to influence the referee and at the same time highlighting his Ulster bias while failing to acknowledge that Donegal were far from saints themselves.

He seems to have a real dislike for Mayo and his last piece about AOS and the Mayo team was a pathetic piece of so called journalism.

He's increasingly irrelevant since he's thankfully off our screens (apart from eir which hardly anyone watches).
He has a column in the Sindo but I don't buy that rag so it's been a long time since I've been subjected to his bull****.

None of the independent papers get brought into this house either. I'll read whatever is free online as I refuse to pay them for the digital stuff.

I would be a big fan of McConville as well. He is very level headed in his analysis and doesn't fire insults. He understands the complexities of been an intercounty footballer which others like Brolly don't get.

I am surprised they didn't put him into the Armagh job rather than Geeney who I think is out of his depth as an inter county manager.
