Ryan ratified as new Kildare boss

As was widely forecast, Jason Ryan has been ratified as the new Kildare senior football manager at last night's County Board meeting at St. Conleth's Park.
Ryan, who served as a coach last season under previous Kildare boss Kieran McGeeney, was given 100% support by the executive committee and club delegates present in Newbridge after the Kildare County board recommended him as McGeeney's replacement.
