Laois will wait for right man

Laois County Board secretary Niall Handy revealed there is no great rush to fill the managerial post vacated by Justin McNulty.

The Armagh native announced on Monday night that he would not be seeking an extension on his three-year term at the helm of the county’s football team.

McNulty enjoyed mixed fortunes during his tenure, reaching the All-Ireland quarter-finals last season, but the O’Moore County failed to make an impression this summer, exiting the championship at the hands of Donegal.
