GAELIC GAMES
Louth took the GAA world by surprise last night with the appointment of Mickey Harte as their new football manager.
The three-time All Ireland winning ex-Tyrone boss has been handed a three-year term with the Wee County.
Harte will be assisted by Gavin Devlin, and together they'll also be in charge of Louth's under-20's.
Anthony Cunningham will remain in charge of the Roscommon footballers for the next two years.
He led them to last year's Connacht title, but suffered a disappointing loss to Mayo in this year's semi-finals.
Meanwhile, John Sugrue stepped down as Kerry under-20 manager after just a year at the helm.
