MICKEY GRAHAM HAS tonight been appointed the new Leitrim senior football manager.
Graham’s appointment was rubber-stamped at a Leitrim GAA management committee meeting.

Before working with the Mayo native, he had been at the helm of the Cavan senior footballers for five seasons, guiding them to Ulster glory in 2020.

Graham’s appointment is subject to approval at the next meeting of the Leitrim county board, with a three-year spell in charge planned, subject to review.
His backroom team wil be finalised once the approval process by the county board has been concluded.
Leitrim have been without a manager since Moran’s exit at the start of last month. He had been steering Leitrim’s fortunes for three years and guided them to promotion to Division 3 of the football league this year, before a Tailteann Cup exit at the preliminary quarter-final stage.
