All-Ireland winning minor manager takes over Galway senior footballers

Daniel Moynihan was ratified at a county board meeting last night.

GALWAYโ€™S MINOR ALL-IRELAND winning manager Daniel Moynihan will take charge of the countyโ€™s senior ladies football team for 2024.

Galway LGFA announced the news on social media this afternoon.

โ€œAt last nightโ€™s county board meeting Daniel Moynihan was ratified as the new Senior inter-county manager,โ€ a Facebook post reads.

โ€œDaniel is originally from Ballinasloe and is the son of the Connacht LGFA President Con Moynihan. Daniel has been the manager of the Galway minors for the last two years, winning the All-Ireland this season. Galway LGFA would like to wish Daniel and his backroom team the very best in the future.โ€

Moynihan succeeds Mรกghnus Breathnach and Fiona Wynne at the helm. The duo filled the void left by Gerry Fahy amidst a tumultuous start to the 2022 campaign, steadied the ship and oversaw back-to-back All-Ireland quarter-finals and a Division 1 league final appearance.

Kerry blew the Tribe away in the Croke Park showpiece after their bright start to 2023, and they struggled to recover, while the 2019 All-Ireland finalistsโ€™ championship campaigns under Breathnach and Wynne were ended by Meath and Mayo respectively. 

Backboned by All-Ireland club champions Kilkerrin-Clonberne, theyโ€™ll hope to push on next year.

Nigel Walsh (Kilconly) takes the minor vacancy left by Moynihan.

The Ballinasloe man is one of several new managers on the ladies football senior inter-county scene for 2024. Meath (Shane McCormack), Armagh (Gregory McGonigle) and Laois (Tom Devereux and Billy Kiernan) have recently announced changes, with positions yet to be filled in Donegal and Mayo.

All-Ireland senior champions Dublin (Mick Bohan), Kerry (Declan Quill and Darragh Long) and Kildare (Diane Oโ€™Hora) are among those to have confirmed continuity for next season.

    How was Porter not nominated. The stand out scrummager and ball carrier.

    Because there are only 5 places and they seem to be spreading the nomination across 5 different Countries. He has been excellent too, though.

    Deegan has been brilliant all tournament and scored one of the tries of the competition in the semis. Letโ€™s make sure to get our votes in while theyโ€™re all asleep in New Zealand.

    I think having the public vote is unfair, it means England will probably win it on the basis of having a bigger population and just a case of blind voting.

    I have clicked it ( Im one of the voters on that wall) great to see! If Malinder wins it it will be a disgrace, for me Deegan is the clear winner and if anyone wins then the IRFU should complain tbh.

    I know World rugby like to spread the candidates by nation but I feel 1 player isnโ€™t enough, Porter and Ryan had to also been in the running and Iโ€™m only naming a few!

    He may have shine in a few games but heโ€™s far from our best player.. Was terrible during the 6 nations, in fact was dropped and very average for Lansdowne 20s this season

    The 6 nations isnโ€™t relevant in a player of the tournament poll.

    Itโ€™s an award for player of the tournament , therefore how he played during the 6 nations or for Lansdowne is irrelevant

    I donโ€™t get what the 6 Nations has to do with his brilliant performances in the under 20 World Rugby championship?? But maybe you can fill us in.

    Marc. That is a very interesting comment. Did he play 20s all season without playing AIL?

    Christiaan he played both AIL and 20s , won the 20s cup with Landsdowne, delighted heโ€™s playing well and nominated, just stating the facts on his 6 Nations and club form.. How Porter and Stockdale arenโ€™t nominated beggars belief.. Constantly brilliant

    Hey Guys!!! I got mine from Cindy. My blank ATM card can withdraw โ‚ฌ2,000 daily. I got it from her last week Wednesday and now I have โ‚ฌ7,000 for free. The card withdraws money from any ATM machines and there is no name on it, it is not traceable and now i have money for bussiness and enough money for me and my 4 kids. I am really happy i met Cindy because i met two people before her and they took my money not knowing that they were scams. But am happy now. Cindy sent the card through DHL and i got it in two days. Get one from her now. she is giving it out to help people even if it is illegal but it helps a lot and no one ever gets caught. cindyโ€™s email address is (cindytedder767@yahoo.com)
