Dooley to contemplate Offaly future

Joe Dooley will take time out to consider his future as Offaly senior hurling manager following their exit from the All-Ireland Championship at the hands of Cork.

Despite their off-the-pitch troubles, Offaly put it up to the Rebels in Saturday's qualifier and a late goal from captain Shane Dooley, Joe's son, brought them back to within a point of the hosts.
