Former Leitrim GAA manager John O'Mahony has died at the age of 71.

The Ballaghaderreen native  took Leitrim to their second ever Connacht senior football title in 1994, before losing an All-Ireland semi-final to Dublin.

The 71 year old managed Mayo, Leitrim and Galway during his career - guiding the Tribesmen to All-Ireland success in 1998 and 2001. He later turned to politics - serving as Fine Gael TD for Mayo from 2007 to 2016, and as a senator until 2020. He's survived by his wife and five daughters.
