Charlie McCarthy, Seán O’Gorman and Pat Mulcahy part of committee to find Cork boss

Former Cork hurlers Charlie McCarthy, Seán O’Gorman and Pat Mulcahy will form part of the committee charged with finding the county’s new senior hurling manager.

At last night’s county board meeting in Nemo Rangers, a five-man committee — along similar lines to that established to search for a new football manager — was set up to seek a replacement for Jimmy Barry-Murphy, who stepped down from his post last month.

St Finbarr’s clubman McCarthy captained Cork to the 1978 All-Ireland, one of five medals he won, while he was joint-manager with Johnny Clifford for the 1985 All-Ireland minor win and was senior manager in 1988. O’Gorman, of Milford, was part of the successful 1990 side, winning an All-Star that year and 1993, while he was county U21 manager in the last decade.
