Rory Gallagher gets Donegal nod for three more years

A specially convened sitting of the Donegal county committee last night ratified Rory Gallagher as senior team manager for another three years, with an option of a fourth.

The Belleek, Co Fermanagh, native has completed two years of what was also originally agreed to be a four-year tenure - also three years with the option of a fourth.

Gallagher was initially ratified as the successor to Jim McGuinness in October 2014, a month after Donegal were defeated 2-9 to 0-12 by Kerry in the All-Ireland final.
