WATERFORD are set to appoint Davy Fitzgerald as their hurling manager on Thursday evening.
The 51-year-old’s name is expected to go before a meeting of the county board for ratification in a move that would see his managerial career go full circle.
Fitzgerald took his first steps in senior inter-county management when handed the reins in Waterford in June 2008 after Justin McCarthy had been ousted in a player coup.
