McCabe appointed Cavan boss and Moran to take over at Mayo
Dermot McCabe has been appointed as the new Cavan senior football boss on a three-year term, whilst Andy Moran is set to take over as Mayo manager. McCabe, who won an Ulster Senior Football title and an All-Star as a Cavan player in 1997, leaves his role as Westmeath manager to take up the position with his native county. He was previously part of the Cavan minor management and the senior backroom staff when the Breffni County won the Ulster Championship in 2020. The Gowna club man succeeds Raymond Galligan, who stepped down in July after two years at the helm following Cavan's All-Ireland preliminary quarter-final exit to Kerry. Mayo have announced that they are seeking the ratification of Moran to take over at the next meeting of the county's board. Former Derry boss Paddy Tally and ex-Mayo player Colm Boyle are set to form part of Moran's management ticket. The 41-year-old enjoyed a decorated inter-county career as a player with Mayo, winning eight Connacht titles, two All-Stars and being crowned Footballer of the Year in 2017. Since retirement, Moran has had a spell as Leitrim boss, guiding the county to promotion from Division Four in 2023 and also held a coaching role with Monaghan under Gabriel Bannigan as the Farney men reached the quarter-finals of the All-Ireland this year. Moran will take over from Kevin McStay, whose three-year reign as boss ended after Mayo exited the All-Ireland at the group stage.

2025 Tailteann Cup odds predictions, and betting tips
THE fourth edition of the Tailteann Cup got off to a flying start earlier this month, with the opening round of fixtures providing football fans with a taste of what the next few months have in store. In this Tailteann Cup tips and betting guide, we are going to take a look at how each of the groups is likely to play out, as well as make predictions about who will win the trophy in July. 🏆 2025 Tailteann Cup winner odds Kildare - Westmeath - Offaly - Fermanagh - Laois - Wexford - Limerick - Antrim - Carlow - Wicklow - Tipperary - Longford - London - Leitrim - New York - Waterford - * Odds are subject to change. Who will win the 2025 Tailteann Cup? The bookies have Westmeath marked as one of the favourites for 2025, and while this is far from a foregone conclusion, I am going to back them to secure their second Tailteann Cup. Heading into this competition, they had not won a game or championship this year, but that was no fair reflection of their status within this competition when you consider the quality they had come up against. Westmeath - 2/1 Westmeath made their intentions clear during the opening weekend of the 2025 Tailteann Cup, firing past Antrim at the TEG Cusack Park in what was a clear statement of intent for the rest of the competition. Manager Dermot McCabe has injected positivity and belief into the team, while marquee forward Luke Loughlin will be a major threat for them as they advance through the competition. They are Kildare - 2/1 Kildare, the team that stopped Westmeath in the Leinster Senior Football Championship quarter-finals, are the other favourites, and a showdown later in the tournament between the two sides is a tantalising prospect. The side has had a great year, securing promotion back to Division Two and looking strong coming into the tournament. They looked comfortable in their opening weekend win against Leitrim and are also Offaly - 9/2 Finally, They also took Meith close in the Leinster quarter-finals and will look to build on this to take the trophy. 📺 How to watch the 2025 Tailteann Cup Viewers can tune into the 2025 Tailteann Cup by subscribing to GAA+.
