O’Leary wants Mullins as Dubs’ boss

FORMER goalkeeping great John O’Leary is convinced that Dublin can win next year’s All-Ireland SFC if Brian Mullins is at the helm.

A selector under Tommy Carr and manager of the Ladies SFC team which contests Sunday’s All-Ireland final, O’Leary is adamant Mullins or outgoing selector Paul Caffrey could lead the capital to honours.

O’Leary, touted as one of the favourites for the job before Carr was appointed (until he criticised county board chairman John Bailey in his biography, ‘Goodbye to the Hill’), didn’t express an interest in the post.
