Cork City FC has been informed by men’s first team manager Ger Nash of his decision to step down from the role, with immediate effect.
The club would like to thank Ger for his efforts throughout the 2025 season.
However, Cork are now searching for a third permanent boss in a year to bring them straight back to the top flight.
“Cork City FC has been informed by men’s first team manager Ger Nash of his decision to step down from the role, with immediate effect,” a brief club statement began.
“The club would like to thank Ger for his efforts throughout the 2025 season. Ger Nash has indicated to the club that the decision was made for personal reasons. The search for a new manager will begin immediately.”
Former Republic of Ireland international David Meyler was Nash’s No.2 but it’s unclear as of yet whether he will also depart the club or be in the frame as a successor.
