Kearns new frontrunner for Galway job
August 18, 2010
Liam Kearns chats to Blathnaid Ni Chofaigh at a recent Celebrity Bainaisteoir match between Nobber of Meath and Irvinestown of Fermanagh.
It follows the decision by Kevin Walsh to remain with Sligo for another two years earlier this week. Local bookmakers Mulhollands, which is the family business of former Galway footballer and 2007 All-Ireland minor winning manager Alan Mulholland, has installed Kearns as the 2/1 favourite to fill the vacancy in the West.
The Tralee native, who led Limerick and Laois to provincial final appearances in the past decade, could also be interested in the Kerry job if Jack O'Connor decides to step down.
Another possible candidate is former Westmeath boss Tomas O Flatharta, who was beaten by Kernan for the position this time last year. Tweet
