Murphy returns, McCarthy exits
The GAA have announced a significant change to their inter-county management setup with the appointment of Declan Murphy as the new manager of the senior football team, while Pat McCarthy, the outgoing manager, will be taking up a role within the GAA’s coaching and games development department.
Murphy, who has been out of management since leaving his post as Offaly manager in 2018, will be joined by former Dublin star Paddy Christie as his coach.
McCarthy, who had been in charge of the team since 2016, will now take up a role within the GAA’s coaching and games development department, where he will be responsible for developing and implementing coaching programmes for players and coaches at all levels.
