CAVAN have created GAA history by becoming the first county to engage an independent recruitment company to assist them in finding a new football manager.Adding to the intrigue is that the company, SportsTracker, has former GAA President Peter Quinn as its chairman and employs former Down manager Pete McGrath as a full-time technical director. Others listed on the technical support team include Mickey Harte (Tyrone) and Brian Cody (Kilkenny).McGrath, who led Down to All-Ireland glory in 1991 and 1994, will play a major part in the process of finding a replacement for Donal Keoghan who resigned last month.In what is a new development, the Cavan vacancy has been placed on the website of sportTrackerjobs.ie, inviting applicants to submit their CVs for consideration.McGrath will vet the applications in association with the Cavan County Board and advise them on whom he regards as best suited for the job. He will also form part of the interview team. "Everything will be done in conjunction with the County Board. This is an exciting initiative by our company in an area where we believe we can bring a high level of expertise," said McGrath.The new approach to appointing a manager does not rule out candidates who don't wish to formally apply to the website as Cavan clubs have been given until next Monday night to make nominations."Using SportsTracker brings a new dimension to making the appointment. Eventually, all candidates who either apply or are nominated will be considered.

New City slicker cooks up recipe for success

2011-12-05T19:21:00.000-08:00

Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra has offered to resign as a director, according to the club's executive chairman. In a wide-ranging and frank interview Garry Cook also confirmed that the former Thai Prime Minister is close to selling part of his stake to raise funds for transfer deals. Cook insisted that City "is not for sale" but admitted that both he and Shinawatra were "embarrassed" after his £800m assets were frozen and the owner was forced to flee to escape corruption charges in Thailand. It has raised questions about Shinawatra's suitability and whether he can still pass the league's 'fit and proper persons' test. "There aren't many football clubs in the world who have their owner under political jurisdiction," Cook conceded. However, in outlining his ambitions Cook, a former president of Nike's Brand Jordan, boldly claimed that City will become bigger than Manchester United. And, despite losing out on signing Ronaldinho, he was confident that a world "superstar" would be bought. The 45-year-old, who has spent much of his career in the United States, also proposed that the Premier League should be reduced, possibly to 10 clubs, with no promotion or relegation. It was the scrutiny and speculation over City's financial future that prompted Cook to speak. He talked about how "frustrated" he is at the way the club has been portrayed, suggested there may be a "vendetta" and insisted "there is no cash crisis" at the club. As for City's search for new investors, Cook added: "We've talked about selling part of his (Shinawatra's) stake to a partner who would take a little bit of the pressure away." However, he insisted that the owner didn't want to give up his majority stake-holding. "We are not looking at institutions," he said. "It's a friend of a friend." That friend is likely to be from the Far East. Cook revealed that the "second richest man in China" -- Forbes magazine estimates that to be Zhang Jindong, who is worth $4.5bn -- had offered to buy the club at a dinner in Beijing last week while there has been interest from Dubai, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Fruitless There are also no regrets over the fruitless pursuit of Ronaldinho. "I am remorseful because we need a superstar," Cook said. "A global franchise entity -- Mark (Hughes) and I talk about this a lot and he sort of understands it. "In the intellectual property world of running a football club -- when you have 3.7bn people a year looking at you -- you have to move away from football the way it is. "I know people are going to say 'Here we go again, another guy from America telling us how it should be'. "But it's true. China and India -- 30 per cent of the world's population -- don't have any football content. We are going to try and tell them that Manchester City is their content. "You look at Manchester City's brand and it looks like it's Thomas Cook (the shirt sponsor). "And there's something not right about sitting in a bar in Bangkok or Beijing and watching a match here and seeing Fred Smith's Plumbing. You have to think on a global stage. "To do that you need a superstar to get you through that door. No disrespect to any player we have but Richard Dunne doesn't roll off the tongue in Beijing. "I love Richard and we have re-signed him because he is a key member of our team. But we need a superstar. "Ronaldinho -- what he does is bring players to a club? He brings access from major sponsors and financial reward." But how does that square with a manager such as Hughes? "We told Mark not to come if he thought we didn't need a superstar," Cook said. "It was very much that. Mark's comment was 'we all should challenge ourselves, because that's what makes a difference'. He has never really had the big star to manage. "Had he not wanted him (Ronaldinho) then we would have had a very heated debate, and it would have been Mark's decision in the end. I can't tell you who the next one will be, but we have one. "Ronaldinho was up for it but he got a call from AC Milan. One day we're going to be a club that players say, 'Manchester City just called me, I had no choice'. With the superstar, it won't be this [transfer] window now because they're too complex.'' This is all part of Cook's plan which includes winning the Premier League, Champions League -- and overtaking United. "If I didn't have that goal, I wouldn't be here," Cook said. "Growing up at Nike, you don't sit around saying: 'Can we.' You say: 'We will.' "I've got to change that here. The thing that's going to let me down is cultural. I call it the cultural cascade. "You get 'this is England, not America, you know' and then 'this is Manchester, not London, you know' and then 'this is Manchester City, not Manchester United, you know'. "So in the end what do you do? Do you roll over, play dead and go home? No."- Jason Burt Download our iPhone App Now
