CORK COUNTY BOARD chiefs are set to offer Conor Counihan a new two-year term as senior football boss.
The announcement was made at a county board meeting tonight with Counihan also to be given the responsibility of picking his own selectors. It is understood that Counihan may opt to alter the make-up of his back room team which has consisted of Ger O’Sullivan (Dromtarriffe), Peadar Healy (Naomh Aban), Terry O’Neill (Bantry Blues) and Jim Nolan (Castlehaven) since he took over in February 2008.
If the Aghada club man accepts the invitation, the county board executive are empowered to rubber-stamp his appointment immediately.
There had been speculation over Counihan’s future in the wake of last month’s All-Ireland semi-final loss to Donegal as to whether his five-season reign would be extended. But the proposed new term paves the way for the 2010 All-Ireland winning boss to stay at the helm with the Rebels.
Counihan has claimed three Munster titles with the Cork senior side in 2008, 2009 and 2012 along with three Division 1 league crowns in 2010, 2011 and 2012 and a Division 2 league title in 2009.
them Brits are always late
ha ha.
excellent Cornelius. true that.
if he wins it on the last shot though he’ll be as Irish as myself.
Unlike us punctual Irish!!!!
According to Skysports he’s now Irish again :)
Of course he’s Irish, Jason, Europe is losing!!!!
He was watching the All-Ireland Hurling Final!!!!
Surely in the scenario described he would have been an hour early with Chicago being an hour behind the eastern coast. Unless the earth spins in the opposite direction stateside….
If its 10am in Chicago it’s 11am on the east coast….
Mr crow u beat me to it! silly brits with their tardiness ;)
Cornellius and maverick. You are ignorant gits.
Are all Rorys slow today? Twas a joke. Declan summed it up by what i meant.
sense of humor by pass for Rory Conway !!
@Alan you must be from Leitrim I’m guessing and you support Liverpool and you have a dislike for snobby c@@nts who play golf… All combining to show why you hate 3 champions ie Kilkenny, Man United and McIlroy
lol, probably. would rather go and watch shels than man utd and spend friday night under lights on the driving range with a bunch of other people who kit themselves out from car boot sales and who couldnt hit a wall with a tractor
Man United.. Champions? I think you must have time warped in from 1999??
You don’t know Leitrim people, we laugh at your silly comments!!!!
for some unknown reason some sports people really annoy me. i cant figure out why. mcilory seems a real tosser. i couldnt care less what he does or doesnt achieve. same with alex feguson, wayne rooney, brian cody and others
If Europe wins he’s British , if they lose he’s Irish . Wait till you see.
“eastern seaboard time”? Lads, it’s called Eastern Standard Time in winter and Eastern Daylight Time in the summer…..
Ten minutes is the the time most golfers turn up for their tee time, no big deal.
