Kenny wants to be Tribe manager

Former Galway selector Mattie Kenny is to challenge the man he once shared the sideline with for the position of Galway hurling manager.

Kenny, who served under Anthony Cunningham at U21 and senior level in recent years, this week confirmed to top-brass his interest in replacing Cunningham.

Current Galway intermediate and U21 boss Johnny Kelly, who managed Portumna to All-Ireland Club glory, and two-time All-Ireland medal winner Brendan Lynskey, a selector during Ger Loughnane’s reign, have also declared their intention to contest the bainisteoir’s bib.
