Mickey Harte: Derry manager steps down after one year in charge

Mickey Harte has stepped down as Derry manager after one season in charge following the county’s All-Ireland quarter-final exit at the hands of Kerry.

Harte, a shock appointment last year, guided the Oak Leafers to a National Football League Division One title but oversaw a difficult championship campaign.

With their Ulster reign having been ended by Donegal, Derry finished third in their All-Ireland group and beat Mayo before falling to Kerry in the last eight at the end of June.

“I would like to thank the players for the huge commitment they gave to the Derry jersey during the 2024 season.

“I would also like to thank Gavin [Devlin, coach] and the entire backroom team for their hard work, dedication and expertise.

“Thanks too for the support of the County Board and all those generous sponsors of the GAA in Derry. Finally, I wish the players every success in the years ahead.”

John Keenan, Derry GAA chairperson, said: “We sincerely thank Mickey, Gavin and their entire backroom team for their hard work and dedication throughout the 2024 season. We wish them the very best in their future endeavours.”
