Cork board begins the process of replacing Frank Murphy

A proposal on the appointment of the next Cork County Board secretary will be circulated to clubs ahead of the next board meeting.

At last night’s first meeting in the new Páirc Uí Chaoimh, county chairman Ger Lane confirmed that clubs would receive a proposal regarding a replacement for Frank Murphy five days prior to the meeting on October 17.

Murphy has been the Cork secretary since 1972 and was given a contract extension in 2012 in order to facilitate his involvement in the organisation of the construction of the new stadium. That contract is set to expire before the end of this year.
