An vacancy has been left by the death as manager of this Galway footballers of kevin Walsh, without a lack of big names.
Together with the county’s minors hitting All-Ireland finals in the past two decades, the U21 and U20 sides picking up Connacht titles in 2017 and 2019 respectively, and also Corofin winning three of their last five All-Ireland club titles, there are clearly promising signs in the west.
Galway boss Walsh steps down
Who would Galway GAA turn to, since they seek their first title since 2001?
A two-time All-Ireland winner as a player is a legend over the county. Having moved into management, this year carrying over the county side, he directed them with a six-point provincial final triumph over Mayo to a Connacht title.
He commands respect within the county, and may prove a popular option.
Rochford is presently a selector together with the ticket, under Declan Bonner at Donegal. But could the Crossmolina man be tempted with a return to a managerial job after working as a trainer in T??r Chonaill?
Before leaving to shoot Mayo rochford is well seen after directing Corofin into an All-Ireland name. There, he led them and of beating Dublin in equally 2016 and 2017 over a whisker.
With some fans and pundits attempting to find that the Tribesmen use a more assaulting game-plan, the negative can shake up.
His expertise has been built by another winning player with all the western county at third degree. Having led UCD he certainly has credentials in a level that is high.
In addition to Joyce, Divilly has been thought to be one of the ancient front-runners for the role.
A selector under Rochford at Corofin for the 2015 All-Ireland victory , took control to lead the side-by-side titles in 2018 and 2019. They’ve done so in some style, making their very best football at Croke Park, beating against Nemo Rangers and also Dr Crokes by a combined 27 points.
The manner in which Corofin have gone to their company may appeal to soccer circles.
Cunningham would be an outside bet to land the job, but gets the experience. The former Tribe hurling manager took the Roscommon footballers over year, also attracted success using a commendable Super 8s revealing along with a Connacht name.
Cunningham could become one of the couple to manage a county in both hurling and football, using Se??n Boylan along with Pat Gilroy being additional cases, although it’s not entirely unprecedented.
