Management
The day to day operations of the club were carried out by a volunteer management committee, consisting of members of the Galway United Supporters Trust, until the Trust severed their relationship with the Club's parent company following its 2011 AGM.
Following their disaffiliation from the Club's management, The Galway United Supporters Trust applied to the Football Association of Ireland for a licence to compete in the League of Ireland as an independent club known as Galway United Supporters' Trust FC. If the application is successful, the team will compete in the First Division of the Airtricity League of Ireland in 2012. Following this move, GUFC withdrew its license application for 2012.
President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins serves as club president in a ceremonial capacity.

Famous quotes containing the word management:
“The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“Why not draft executive and management brains to prepare and produce the equipment the $21-a-month draftee must use and forget this dollar-a-year tommyrot? Would we send an army into the field under a dollar-a-year General who had to be home Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays?”
—Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
“No officer should be required or permitted to take part in the management of political organizations, caucuses, conventions, or election campaigns. Their right to vote and to express their views on public questions, either orally or through the press, is not denied, provided it does not interfere with the discharge of their official duties. No assessment for political purposes on officers or subordinates should be allowed.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
