McCarthy among the nominees for Treaty job

UTGOING Limerick boss Justin McCarthy has secured a nomination for the position of the county’s senior hurling manager despite a controversial two-year reign in charge on Shannonside.

Former Cork All-Ireland winning boss John Allen is also one of nine nominations submitted by clubs across the county to the Limerick county board.

Last Friday evening was the deadline for submissions to the Limerick county board after the post became vacant when McCarthy’s two-year term officially concluded after the recent All-Ireland qualifier defeat to Offaly.
