Uh Paudy went to Westmeaton, he was a roaring success.

He went to Clare and 'twas a bit of a 'twas a bit of a disaster.

But the one thing I you often say like about outside managers, I and I always see a role for an outside

Whether it is an outside manager or an outside coach, but a guy who can bring success to a dressing room, a guy who has delivered in All Ireland or a guy who has played in All Islands.

There is something about a message being delivered by a Mickey Hart.

Or even by a Mac McHugh in the Westmeat dressing room, of a fella being there, done that, won the Holland medals, have the medals to show for us.

And there is a uh

A feeling that

I think players believe

It fills players more with belief to hear it from a guy who's been there, done that and has the medals to show than maybe sometimes a guy

Who hasn't delivered?

Yeah

off the top of my head in football it is John O'Mahon twenty five

and Eugene McGee.

But but but here's the thing though, and it's I I'm not I I wasn't specifically talking exactly

A manager because as you can see now, the success of most All Ireland teams in football and hurling is often driven by the coach who comes from an outside country.

Well, this Paul Kinnerk with the Limerick Huddlers who's who um who knew Oh he's a Limerick man, Pat I

is that you know, even though like when Mickey came to to to Lout.

What he did outside of the fact that he brought belief to them, like he brought professionalism to loud and he raised the standards in training, the facilities, the whole shebang, and now they're now they're they're flourishing they're reaping the dividends.

And it was no different than Wicklow with with Miko or in Kildea with Mikko.
