Board won’t rule out outside appointment for Cork hot-seat

Cork County Board chairman Ger Lane has neither ruled in nor out the prospect of the county appointing an outside senior football manager to succeed Brian Cuthbert.

It would be a first for Cork not to appoint from within the borders but the prospect remains a live one at least for the time being.

“It has never occurred before now but I can’t honestly say if it would or would not happen,” remarked Lane.
