Derry great joins Donegal backroom team

DERRY legend Paddy Bradley has joined forces with the new Donegal management team of Paddy Carr and Aidan O’Rourke.

Carr was ratified as the new Tir Chonaill boss a month ago replacing the outgoing Declan Bonner, who stepped aside following Donegal’s qualifier defeat to Armagh.

Bradley joins the management ticket which is “90% complete” according to a statement released by Donegal GAA.

“The bainisteoir’s full backroom team is 90% complete and an announcement revealing all roles and responsibilities is due within the next ten days,” read the statement.

Bradley oversaw his native clubs fortunes this season and guided Glenullin to a Derry Intermediate Championship.

Donegal will head into the new season without their inspiration leader Michael Murphy with the 2012 All-Ireland winning captain recently retiring.
