‘No pay’ policy saw Dublin miss out on managers

Dublin GAA chairman Sean Shanley has admitted that the county’s strict policy on not paying managers has led to some figures being turned away in the past.

Dublin are currently seeking a hurling manager to replace Ger Cunningham and will begin talking to potential candidates about the position next week.

Shanley said he is “confident” that a number of players who made themselves unavailable to Cunningham, including former All-Star forward Danny Sutcliffe, will be back for 2018.
