Leitrim lads are certainly not happy with Mickey Graham. I suppose it's quite similar to Mickey Harte and Louth last year.
Personally I don't see much wrong with it. At the end of the day it's October, it's not like he left mid season. And also it's better to be honest if his hearts not in it.
Not an easy job he has picked though. Big shoes to fill in Cian O'Neill and unless Galway win the all Ireland, Mickey is going to be an easy target for why things would have regressed

In what way is it like Mickey Harte..? At least Harte managed Louth and brought them up a couple of leagues…I'd say not too many in Louth would have a bad word said about Micky Harte but I doubt the feeling would be the same for Graham in Leitrim….!

Lads it is probably better that leitrim find this out now. tis a bad look for graham and I feel bad for the good football people in leitrim I would know . if it was a head job he took itself. but leaving for a lieutenants role under a man of his own vintage and manegerial experience has marked his card. young lads taking leave for a year or two out is part of growing up in modern Ireland. and any manager worth his salt should be able to roll with that one and build a stronger wider panel. If he was a leader he would have easily mustered two or three decent under 21s who would have developed under his mentorship. instead he defected to a team in the same province and took the handier shot to glory. in the bus, as they say. not driving it.
As the Manager roller coaster is now in full swing can we post who has been appointed to what teams in both men's & ladies and see what positions still need to be filled out.
Weekend 25/26 January - Home vs Monaghan Weekend 1/2 February - Away vs Meath Weekend 15/16 February - Home vs Louth Weekend 23/24 February - Away vs Westmeath Weekend 1/2 March - Home vs Down Weekend 15/16 March - Away vs Roscommon Weekend 22/23 March - Home vs Cork
So we start at home (which is rare), and 4 home games total which is also rare. Good to see, and an even spread home then away and so on. No very long trips either. All away games are supposedly on the Sunday afternoon due to lack of floodlights in those places. I'd imagine some games at home will be Saturday evenings and maybe a few on Sunday.

The pod had it that Damien Keaney is new Killgarry manager, meaning he had left the Cavan setup. Colm Nally from Louth is supposedly well regarded and has come into the Cavan backroom team as coach. He has written coaching manuals, and has YouTube videos up on coaching. Cavan beat a number of others teams to him

4 home games!!! Who was asleep at the wheel to allow that to happen? :)
3 short away trips too. We can have no complaints.
