Carlow want Dempsey

CARLOW have been left in turmoil, with Mick Condon the latest casualty, as claims and counter-claims are made by players and management over the sequence of events which ultimately led to the manager, selectors and physical trainer walking away, just four weeks before their championship opener.

It came after a dismal league run, which included a defeat to lowly London.

While the side’s long-serving Johnny Nevin has been put in charge of training in a caretaker capacity, County Board officers have decided to go in search of a manager. However, they admit their task is not an easy one.
