Martin Keown(Ex-Arsenal) could be next Galway Utd manager.

His sister lives in County Galway and he goes over to that town a few times a year.Spotted in Terryland a couple of times.He currently coaches a College team over in England and cant get a better job till he gets his coaching licence.Applied to 2 Eircom League clubs for managers job recently but was turned away for the licence reason.He will have it in the month or 2 im told but can G.U wait that long?????Apparently hes on his way to Galway this week but is it coincidence and hes just visiting relatives,i wonder.
We do need a manager with experience,manager experience i mean.Even though he did work under Graham and Wenger so he will have learnt alot so im not sure if id like it or not.

I actually saw Martin Keown today outside HMV on O'Connell Street. He walked right past me. He looked to be in a hurry.

He's been managing Oxford University all year; they were beaten 5-3 in their showpiece game against Cambridge last weekend.

Is there a zoo in Galway?

Not sure how good a job he'd do. Can't see it happening either. Not got real experience but could still do a decent job I'd say, he'd have some good contacts[no eyesight jokes lads] within the game, for signing players etc.
