Confirmed - Brian Cuthbert Steps Down as Cork Boss

Cuthbert Issues statement

Brian Cuthbert has issued a statement confirming that he will not be seeking reappointment as Cork football boss.

The statement in full reads:

I have decided not to seek reappointment to the position of Cork senior football manager and am stepping down with immediate effect

From being within a few seconds of being crowned Munster Champions to making our All Ireland Championship exit at the hands of Kildare at the week-end has been difficult for me, the players and backroom staff. The short period involved demonstrates the tight margins that exist between success and failure at inter county level.

I would like to thank the players and all the backroom staff for their huge commitment over the past two years. I would also like to thank the Cork County Board for extending every support possible to myself and the team in the course of the League and Championship campaigns.

Brian Cuthbert
