Next Dublin GAA manager betting odds as two leading contenders emerge
Ger Brennan and Declan Darcy have emerged as the leading contenders with the bookies to become Dublin's new senior football manager. Dessie Farrell announced he would be stepping down from his role as Dublin boss following his side's All-Ireland quarter-final loss to Tyrone on Saturday evening at Croke Park. "I would have informed the county board at the start of this season that regardless of what happened, this was going to be my last season," Farrell said after the game. "The players were aware of that and I just informed them inside there to confirm it. "It's been a privilege. As a player and as a coach, I've been involved with Dublin for the guts of 40 years. So it's been a long, long time. "It's been very much part and parcel of my life. I've met some many amazing people along the way, all the backroom teams, all the coaching of the underage teams, minor teams, U21 teams, and the senior teams for the last couple of years. I've met some special people. "I've had a ringside seat in many ways to some of the greatest warriors that ever played the sport. I've been involved with some of them from under 13 right the way through to today. I've seen them grow from young boys to young men to older men. "That's a journey I'm so grateful for. I'm delighted to be involved for as long as I have. We've had some good days and bad days, but that's all a part of professional sport. "Some special memories, and some special bonds and relationships." Speculation is already swirling over who will replace Farrell in the hotseat for next season. Ger Brennan, who guided Louth to this year's Leinster title, a first in 68 years for the Wee County, is the early pick of the oddsmakers and punters, and is now an odds-on 10/11 shot (from 6/4) to make a return to his home county. Former Dublin selector, Declan Darcy, who was an integral part of the Jim Gavin side that claimed six Sam Maguires in a row, is also well-fancied at 11/10. Brian O'Keeffe, spokesperson for BoyleSports, said: 'It's already a red-hot race to replace Dessie Farrell as Dublin manager, and while Declan Darcy is a lively contender, it's Ger Brennan who is the punters' pick to revitalise the Dubs after working his magic on the Wee County.' Next Dublin senior football manager 10/11 Ger Brennan 11/10 Declan Darcy 7/1 Mick Bohan 7/1 Jason Sherlock 10/1 Jim Gavin 10/1 Pat Gilroy 16/1 Paddy Andrews 16/1 Ciaran Farrelly 20/1 bar
