Rumours rife in Clare, Limerick and Tipp

WITH the hurling managerial positions still to be filled in Limerick, Clare and Tipperary, speculation is rife about the successors to Dave Keane, Cyril Lyons and Michael Doyle.

One name on the list for the Limerick job is former Midleton star Sean O’Brien, who steered Cork to All-Ireland intermediate success this year.

Former Galway manager Cyril Farrell could be a dark-horse in Clare should the County Board decide to go for an outsider.
