Shane Curran quit as Carlow manager in March, with local man Joe Murphy quitting Naas to take over.
Carlow captain Mikey Bambrick says the team has “moved on to a lot better things” following Joe Murphy’s appointment.
With Murphy only in the door, Carlow lost their Leinster Championship opener to Meath last month but have had time to regroup ahead of the Tailteann Cup, which opens for them away to Fermanagh on Sunday. “As players we wanted to move on as quick as we could and it was only when the statement came out from Shane that we felt we had to set things right as players. We never really wanted any of that.
Murphy comes with a big reputation having enjoyed success on the club scene in Carlow and Kildare and quit his role with Naas to take over his native county.
