Cool hand Luke relishing ‘tough task’ with Carlow
Dempsey was formally ratified as Paul Bealin’s successor at Friday night’s Carlow County Board meeting, ensuring he will return to the position that he held briefly during the 2004 championship season.
Dempsey, who has had spells at the helm in Longford and Westmeath, dramatically pulled out of the race to become Meath manager last month claiming his position had become untenable. Now he is looking forward to putting that controversy behind him and concentrating on his new post.
