Former skipper Tompkins wants All-Ireland winners at Cork helm

Larry Tompkins believes that the next Cork senior football management team needs to be composed primarily of All-Ireland winners.

The first steps towards finding a replacement for Brian Cuthbert are likely to be made at the county board meeting on Tuesday, August 18.

Speaking last night at the Heineken Ireland headquarters at the launch of a special lunch to honour the 1990 double-winning sides, Tompkins — captain of the successful football side that year — put forward the view that players from that era should be involved in the next set-up.
