Committee to find Tribe boss revealed

FORMER Galway boss Liam Sammon will be part of a five-man committee to interview candidates to take over the Tribesmen from Tomás Ó Flatharta.

The race to be the next Galway boss — the fourth in five years — is down to two candidates with All-Ireland U21-winning manager Alan Mulholland the favourite. Former Offaly boss Gerry Fahy, who was in charge of the Galway minors in 2009 and last year, is also in contention.

Two others who were nominated — current Sligo boss Kevin Walsh and former Galway midfielder and manager Billy Joyce — withdrew from the race.
