Billy O’Loughlin gone as Longford GAA begin search for new senior football manager
Laois native resigns after just one season in charge
While the Laois native guided Longford to survival in Division 3 of the 2022 National League thanks to fine wins over Westmeath and Laois, the county fell at the first hurdle in the Leinster Championship and the inaugural Tailteann Cup.
Those disappointing defeats against Westmeath (Leinster) and Fermanagh (Tailteann Cup) raised questions over whether O’Loughlin, with no previous senior inter-county experience, would remain in the role for a second season.
