GALWAY UNITED ARE searching for a new manager after they parted company with Tommy Dunne following a run of just one win in their last eight games.
Dunne spent three years at Eamonn Deacy Park and guided Galway to promotion from the First Division in his first year in charge, before consolidating their top flight status last season.
The Tribesmen however have conceded nine goals in their last two matches, against Shamrock Rovers and Cork City, with Dunne shouldering the blame for Tuesday’s 5-3 loss against the Leesiders.
Despite a bright start to this campaign, the westerners are left with little to play for after a series of poor results in the second half of the season.
In a statement released by Galway this afternoon, the club said an announcement on Dunne’s replacement will be “made in due course.”
“The club would like to thank Tommy for his hard work and dedication in the three seasons following Galway United’s return to the League of Ireland, including achieving promotion in his first season and reaching the EA Sports Cup Final in his second season with the club.Unfortunately, the club has not made the required progress this season and a recent run of poor results has led the board to the decision that a change in management is required.Everyone at the club wishes Tommy all the best in the future.
There will be no further comment from the club on this matter.”
Galway take on Finn Harps in their next game tomorrow evening.
