I have noticed that Drogs have placed their team doctor on the bench for recent league games and in the Setanta Cup final , kitted out in club gear. Do any other clubs have the same practice? Is there a limit on the number of technical staff allowed on the bench? At the Setanta Cup final I counted Drogs with five plus subs , Doolin , John Carroll(assistant), Dessie Judge ( massusse) Albert Byrne(Physio) and the doc. Is this a record?
The Youths have had the Doc in the dugout for all home games. Hasn't been kitted out in the colours though.
same at the mons at every home game but does not travel to away games ...to expensive i believe
The UCDD doctor sits on the bench and is mostly kitted out in club gear.
on our bench we would usually have Rico, Dave Hill (Asst), Emma Robertson (Physio) Tom Enright (massusse) and Dr. Gerard Murphy (Doctor), think Biscuits (Goalkeeping c oach) is always on the bench too
Aw now he doesnt always sit on the bench....one day he sat in the stand and had his stetescope on just in case nobody knew he was the doctor! :DQuote:

just as a matter of interest how many grounds have dug outs for 4th official
Most, I'd hope!
Belfield has one anyway.
It's usually Paul Deering so we didn't bother putting a dug-out in place for him:D.Quote:

EDIT and Richmond.
United Park does'nt have one , the 4th official stands in front of the stand.
That has changed now and we have a lovely 2 seater one now. Have had to use it myself during juvenile matches to help the ref out!Quote:

Wallace got the dug out for the next game, though. Mighty fine it looks too. Nothing but the best from our glorious long-haired leader :D

Kerr said in Monday's programme that Pats have just hired a new full-time member of the physio/medical team and he has plans to expand the backroom staff with more medical and sports-sciencey-type people. :ball:
The big question is - will Anto Murphy and Dave Mulcahy have a better attention span than the likes of Richie Dunne or Stephen Carr, or will they just ditch the DVD viewings to go off and play pool or something...:confused:
Our Doc wears a nice sharp suit
who treats him if he cuts himself on it.Quote:
