The Mayo County Board last night appointed John Maughan as the new manager of the county football team. Maughan guided Mayo to two All-Ireland Finals in 1996 and 1997 but then left the job three years ago. Since then, he has managed Fermanagh footballers before taking up a managerial role with Crossmolina, who recently regained the Mayo county title.
He replaces Pat Holmes as Mayo boss and has already named Liam McHale as one of his selectors.
