Jack O'Shea - Management

Management

In 1992 Jack O'Shea was appointed manager of the Mayo senior football team. His two-year period produced one Connacht title. However, his time as manager was not successful as Mayo did not reach an All-Ireland Final. In his first year he won the Connacht title by beating Roscommon 1-5 (8) to 0-7 (7). But Cork hammered Mayo 5-15 (30) to 0-10 (10) in the semi-final. In his second year Leitrim, led by former Mayo manager John O'Mahony, beat Mayo 0-12 (12) to 2-4 (10) in the Connacht Final. Following the final O'Shea resigned as manager, stating that he had enjoyed management but was not planning to try it again. He has not managed since.

Famous quotes containing the word management:

    The management of fertility is one of the most important functions of adulthood.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    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)

    This we take it is the grand characteristic of our age. By our skill in Mechanism, it has come to pass, that in the management of external things we excel all other ages; while in whatever respects the pure moral nature, in true dignity of soul and character, we are perhaps inferior to most civilised ages.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
