Final year for Micko and Laois

Kerry great Mick O'Dwyer has confirmed that 2006 will be his last year in charge of the Laois footballers.

The 69-year-old, who led Laois to a National League final and the county's first Leinster SFC title in 57 years in 2003, his first year at the helm, is determined to bring further success to the midlands.
