Declan Bonner resigned from his position as Donegal manager tonight and admitted he had made his mind up in the wake of the Championship exit in June.

Bonner informed a county committee at the Donegal GAA Centre in Convoy of his intention, having been appointed for the second time in September 2017. Following a three plus one-year agreement that concluded last year, he opted to stay on for a two-year term in August of last season before making the decision to step aside.
