Tiernan Lynch has left his position as Derry City manager by mutual consent after a poor run of form.<\/b><\/p>\n
The Candystripes sit sixth in the Premier Division and have won just one of their past seven games. <\/p>\n
The 50-year-old joined the side on a three-year deal in November 2024 from Larne, who won back-to-back Irish Premiership titles during his tenure.<\/p>\n
“The club would like to place on record its sincere thanks to Tiernan for his professionalism, commitment and hard work during his time at Derry City,” the club posted on social media following the news. <\/p>\n
Despite making big signings such as James McClean during the off season, Derry have struggled to build on last season’s second place finish.<\/p>\n
McClean has also since voiced his concerns since joining the club and said there was ‘issue somewhere’ at Derry City<\/a> after they exited the Uefa Conference League at the second qualifying round. <\/p>\n The club have confirmed that Mark Connolly will become interim manager and is due to be in the dugout when Derry face Sligo on Friday, 7 August.<\/p>\n More to follow.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
