With Jack officially ratified as the new Kildare manager, we need a new manager for next year. Who are the contenders though? Someone like Declan O'Sullivan maybe, but there maybe a lack of experience. Hopefully the county board get this appointment right.

This is a huge appointment in terms of succession - feel that U-20 manager should be seen to be PKs successor in time; Declan would be a great candidate , Mike Quirke another option - no need to rush this appointment though.

Any argument for PK taking them on with the seniors, obviously with additional help?

Any clear front runners yet?
Would like to see Declan O'Sullivan, Sean O'Sullivan or Diarmuid Murphy involved. What sort of shape will we be in at 20's level next year?

Definitely those 3 could be involved.
Seamus Moynihan and Liam Hassett could be others. Wayne Quinlan.

I wouldnt be on favour of Wayne Quinlivan of Stacks - he is too fond of the Rory Gallagher/Davy Fitz tactic of running on to more or less mark the ref when a decision goes against him.
Some reason why I dont want Hassett involved - sends the wrong message from the sideline and turns officials against you

Eamonn Fitzmaurice would know most of these lads from schools football

Presume Jimmy Keane is favourite for the job after All Ireland Junior success with Brosna and the Kerry Juniors. How St. Kierans do in the County Championship could be a factor. And I'm sure being from the same club as the Chairman also won't hinder his prospects.

Would he be someone who is rated as being of that standard as we have seen previous junior managers crash and burn on a larger stage!!!

Mike Quirke has a lot experience with KOR. Diarmuid Murphy was a selector with the last Senior set up. Seamus Moynihan is Fossa manager for a while now. Declan O'Sullivan is manager of Dromid and was with Jack in the last set up. 4 very good options there.

Gooch or not, he needs to cut his teeth at club and development squad levels before he should be considered for a role such as this.

Small, skillful minors are great and can often win an All-Ireland on skill alone. But U20 needs to have the beginnings of some physicality in the play, especially the back 6. The S&C programme for these lads, plus up to 22/23 even, should one of the top priorities of the County Board - not necessarily the management of the U20's.
Turning Boyz 2 Men is one key for the future successes of Kerry Senior Teams, with apologies for the music reference.

Interesting challenge for JOC with Kildare. first time he has managed outside the county I would think.
The new U-20 role needs someone who is familiar with the work that has gone on at underage level and the players coming through. There will be a significant challenge from the neighbours and double All Ireland champions next door over the next few years so it is a crucial appointment.
There is also of course the possibility that age limits may be changed again and it reverts to u-21, who knows.

Is Barry Mahony overage? you would think he is not far off a senior call up. Some very impressive performances with club and county this past year.

Aidan O'Mahony and Donaghy joining the IT Tralee management this year, so they're both adding to the coaching experience. Along with Aidan's role with the east Kerry u21s, there's great potential (especially for Aidan, let Donaghy get more experience) for a selectors role in the next management

Back to this again after the news last night that John Sugrue won’t be continuing next year. I’m not sure how others feel but I’m happy enough. I thought he was too conservative/defensive and I didn’t agree with certain player or positioning selections he made. I felt he was still managing like he was in charge of a team like Laois with limited resources and a lack of quality, just my take.
So, who will replace him? My preference would be for Declan O’Sullivan. Not a huge amount of experience but he has done well with Dromid and was involved with the 20s for a year I think under Jack O’Connor. He knows Kerry football and would have the respect. I’d love to see him with possibly people like Tomás O’Sé and Gooch in his back room team. Alternative names would be Jimmy Keane, Liam Kearns, Diarmuid Murphy, Seamus Moynihan or maybe even Eamon Fitzmaurice.
I think this appointment is very important to get right. There are no outstanding candidates for our next Senior manager so whoever gets this appointment will be in pole position if they do well.

Think Mike Quirke is a viable option - 4 years experience with KO’R & inter county this year with Laois - would be very familiar with the talent in the county .

What about Donie Buckley? Obviously very well thought of by the majority on here and the County Board.Be an opportunity for him to fully show his wares.

Big difference between being a manager and a couch though. Was seen with Cain O Neill when he was Kildare manager. Was he the Clare manager at some point? Maybe with John Kennedy? Jerry O Sullivan could be one. Success is there to be seen with East Kerry and has intercounty experience with Limerick.

To be fair to Cian he did do a good job in Kildare.If Donie got the right people around him,can't see why he couldn't manage them.

Whoever is appointed will have a very talented bunch of players. I believe this would be the year that completed the 5 in a row minor All-Irelands. This team did have some excellent individual players, probably not as brilliant as the previous years however, they did seem to play like a team better then any other of the minor years. i.e. they got over the line against Galway and especially Monaghan by playing as a unit and not depending on individual magic like that of clifford or o'shea in previous years.

Mike Quirke has another year with Laois so hard to know if he would Leave that job. I would love to see Gerry O Sullivan getting a look in and also Declan

I'd look at Donie and that way to borrow a line from the late Páidí ó Sé 'he needs to s*** or get off the pot'. Rather he make a mess of u20s than Seniors. I know a coach and manager are not the same beast but you never know without giving it a shot.
