O'Dwyer reappointed Laois boss

Mick O'Dwyer was reappointed as Laois football manager for two more years at this week's Laois county board meeting.

Speculation had been rife after the county's huge defeat to Tyrone in the All-Ireland qualifiers that O'Dwyer would not remain at the helm, but the Kerry native has decided to stay on until 2006.

O'Dwyer guided the O'Moore County to their first ever Leinster title last year, but they were dethroned by Páidí O Sé's Westmeath in a replay this year.
