This will be my last year leading Crokes, declares boss O’Neill

DR CROKES will attempt to complete a three in a row of Kerry senior titles next year, a feat the club previously achieved between 1912 and 1914, yet the man at the helm of their recent triumphs is unlikely to be guiding them.

Harry O’Neill will remain in charge for the club’s forthcoming Munster SFC campaign but indicated he will vacate his position before the start of the 2012 county championship.

“As regards going for the three in a row with the Crokes, I have promised my wife faithfully that I will not be in charge next year,” he said.
