Today’s the deadline for applications for the job of Mayo manager and, according to this report in the Mayo Advertiser, at least two names were in the hat by yesterday evening.  There’s no confirmation as yet about who they are or if any further applications were received before today’s deadline but I guess there’ll be more news on that front over the coming week.

That same Mayo Advertiser piece confirms that John Maughan isn’t willing to let his name go forward for the job, so ruling out the prospect (for now at least) that Johnno II will be succeeded by MIII. The Indo today claims that Micko could be one of the names on the list but I guess we’ll have to wait a bit longer to find out if this rather alarming development has any basis in fact.
