Cork managers receive Board backing

Last night's meeting of the Cork County Board saw John Allen and Billy Morgan re-appointed as the Rebels' senior hurling and football managers for the coming season.

Allen, who guided Cork to their second successive All-Ireland SHC title in September, will have selectors Joe O'Leary, Ger Cunningham, Fred Sheehy and Patsy Morrissey on board again for 2006.
