Kiely upbeat despite huge Waterford task

IT is perceived as being one of the toughest jobs in GAA management, and the man entrusted with carrying it out won’t disagree with that perception.

Kilrossanty chairman John Kiely has been re-appointed as manager of the Waterford senior football team.

While Waterford again failed to win a championship or qualifier game under Kiely this year, at least the county ended a three-year barren spell without a National League win with victory over Tipperary.
