It followed a day of speculation that the way was being cleared for Gallagher to take up the role again, after his solicitor released a letter in which he made it clear that he “fully intends to return to intercounty management”. It was splashed on the front page of Friday’s Irish News and subsequently carried by most news outlets across the country.
Derry have been without a manager since the departure of Mickey Harte and Gavin Devlin in the week following their All-Ireland quarter-final exit to Kerry in June. Any hopes they had of getting Malachy O’Rourke, manager of Derry and All-Ireland champions Glen, were scuppered when he took the Tyrone job a fortnight ago.
