Cork set to choose Cleary or Cuthbert for manager’s job

Cork are poised to name their new senior football manager at tonight’s board meeting but executive officials were last night remaining tight-lipped.

Chairman Bob Ryan had no comment to make other than to confirm “the process isn’t complete. It would be totally unprofessional to make any statement on it at the moment”.

However, another meeting of the selection committee is scheduled to take place today ahead of the full board meeting. The committee had previously been split down the middle on John Cleary and Brian Cuthbert, each man receiving three votes.
