Tue 12 Dec 2009Ireland will have new manager for 2010 series
GAELIC GAMES:THE GAA will be appointing a new international rules manager in the new year. Seán Boylan, who took charge of Ireland during the series of 2006 and ’08, will not therefore have a record third series when the internationals resume next autumn.
