John Ledingham hints he may throw his hat in ring for Irish manager job

Robert Splaine has held the position since 2006 and, while his tenure coincided with Cian O’Connor winning Ireland’s first show jumping Olympic medal, Ireland has not qualified a team for three Olympics.
Ledingham, 58, has been the chef d’equipe to the Irish junior, young rider, and children on horses teams for approximately 10 years, but has been among a number of people to vie with Splaine for the senior post, including after the London Olympics.
