Ger Loughnane is to see out his three-year term as Galway hurling manager after meeting with the County Hurling Board last night (Tuesday). The Clare native's future was thrown into serious doubt after breaking his promise to deliver the Liam McCarthy cup west within two years of taking over the Tribesmen. This, his second year, evidently, ended with defeat to Cork and with that his position was reviewed as part of the stipulations of his three-year term. However, it was agreed by both parties last night in the Raheen Woods Hotel in Athenry that Loughnane would remain in charge of the Galway hurlers for another year at least to see out the initial term.
