O'Rourke reappointed as Down boss

1991 All-Ireland winning captain Paddy O'Rourke has been reappointed as manager of Down's senior and Under-21 football teams for 2006.

O'Rourke, who succeeded Pete McGrath in July 2002, had a heartening year in charge as his Under-21s made May's All-Ireland final, their first appearance in a decider since 1984, before losing to Galway.
