The County Board Complaints Thread

[Reservedcitizen]

How many GDAs are hurling or football only? That limits the assistance that can be provided on that front. It is pie in the sky stuff from Donovan in reality, but his comments keep him relevant to the media.

Can a GDA actually be one or the other? Are they all not dual in a dual county?
Well, whoever is responsible for the shambles that continues to be Cork senior football and especially hurling needs to be answer some questions.. Sure the other counties are in not laughing at us at this stage..

I don’t know what goes on down there but he does the hurling in west cork? Isn’t that his job.

I will let someone from West Cork answer that, but If I was a betting man I would say that he doesn't know one end of a Hurl from the other.

Very hard to coach something if you never played the game, especially if you are talking about these GDAs going into schools and setting up Elite academies.

Both suggesting that development squads and academies are not the way to go

Isn’t there 16-20 GDAs?
Some would go into Harry schools and others into football schools.
Not being smart but as an example what did Paul Kinnerk play & sport did John Kiely play with Limerick? These 2 are the most successful coaching/manager combo in hurling history

You're not from Cork are you.

Hi Roy,

That’s the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me.
I’m emotional. Thanks
