Eight years after first job interview, Kevin McStay gets dream Mayo job (SportsJOE.ie)

Castlebar native Kevin McStay is the new manager of the Mayo senior footballers, and his 'all-star' backroom team will soon be confirmed.

I know a couple of players left throughout the league but that was just personal stuff, it wasn't anything to do with Kevin himself. During his spell as manager of Roscommon, McStay led the county to a 2017 Connacht SFC title. It was just themselves not feeling like they were fitting into the team or just not going as well as they thought they would. That there are other people who are in the race but not saying it. "Yet, 24 hours after that interview, one or two friends of mine in Mayo were able to tell me 'you are not going to get the that job'. "The interview I did, perhaps, I might have been too honest at it," McStay told Off The Ball, in 2021.
