Ryan set to stay as Rebels boss

Cork’s All-Ireland winning football manager Eamonn Ryan is expected to commit to another year.

Ryan guided the Rebels to an eighth All-Ireland crown in September, but was non-committal on his future when contacted by the Irish Examiner before Christmas.

It is now believed that the Watergrasshill native will extend his tenure into an 11th season and his position is set to be ratified at tonight’s Convention.
