Liam Cahill in pole position for Tipperary hotseat

All-Ireland U21 winning manager Liam Cahill is now in pole position to take charge of the Tipperary senior hurlers.

Cahill’s transformation of the U21s from the team that lost to Cork in July’s Munster final by 13 points to beating them by three in last month’s All-Ireland final is believed to have convinced the selection committee that he is the right man for the position.
