Billy Lee steps aside as Limerick football boss after six years

Billy Lee stepped down as Limerick senior football manager after six years.

Lee was one of the longest serving managers in inter-county football with only Colm Collins in neighbouring Clare, who has completed nine seasons, and Armagh’s Kieran McGeeney (eight) in situ for longer in their respective jobs, with Westmeath boss Jack Cooney now the next longest-serving manager as he heads into his fifth season.

The popular Newcastlewest man certainly leaves a job that is a far more attractive proposition now than when he succeeded John Bruadair back in November 2016, when Limerick were rooted in Division Four.
