Rebel boss Cuthbert lining up a move for former Kerry coach Flanagan

Cork football manager Brian Cuthbert is lining up a sensational move for former Kerry coach Pat Flanagan to be part of a new-look management team next season.

Highly-regarded Flanagan, recently linked with the vacant manager’s position in Waterford football, would be a real coup for Cuthbert, who is looking to fill the coaching position vacated by Ronan McCarthy.

The Bishopstown man is a big fan of Flanagan, who was a key part of Jack O’Connor’s successful first period as Kerry manager from 2004 and was still part of the Kingdom’s backroom team for the 2009 All-Ireland final win, ironically over Cork.
