ANGRY DERRY MANAGER Brian McIver resigned as Derry boss after he saw his side exit the football championship after a poor display against Galway.
Danny Cummins’ goal seven minutes from time wrapped up the win, but McIver was left enraged when referee Conor Lane didn’t award Derry a penalty at the other end following a challenge by Finian Hanley on Cailean O’Boyle.
“I have given my life in terms of the GAA. I had to go into a bunch of players there and thank them for all of their work.
“I just can’t handle refereeing decisions like that any longer. I have had to step down,” said a furious McIver.
