LOUTH GAA THIS evening announced the appointment of legendary Tyrone manager Mickey Harte on a three-year term.
Harte departed Tyrone after 18 years at the helm this month having guided them to three All-Ireland SFC titles between 2003 and 2008.
Harte will guide the Wee County in the Leinster Championship from next year, with tonight’s announcement wishing him well for three years ahead.
Gavin Devlin, who was on Harte’s successful 2003 and 2005 Tyrone teams, will join the 68-year-old’s backroom team which will also have responsibility for the under 20 side.
Meanwhile, Roscommon also moved to announce news on their management team this evening as a virtual county board meeting agreed to award Anthony Cunningham two further years on his term.
The manager who was at the helm for the 2019 Connacht Championship will stay on until the end of the 2022 season.
Jesus, you’d think he might take a break
@BMJF: Kerr-chhiinnngggg!!!
That’s Dublin dominance in Leinster finished. Good thing they over celebrated Saturday’s victory.
Good on him. Fill the pockets with no real expectations.
Wish him well
Now we will see if he ranks as a true great… pitty Jim Gavin didn’t go to one of the weaker counties too.
@Ciarán FitzGerald: he’s already a true great
@Ciarán FitzGerald: wonderful words from a Meath man. Take your scolding and just dream of the 90’s Ciarán
Strange one, but it will be interesting to see can he bring them on. Best of luck to him.
I will wish the man well and the best of luck.
