LEGENDARY Donegal manager Brian McEniff features in the latest episode of Ciaran’s Cast to reflect on his storied career.

McEniff masterminded Donegal’s first All-Ireland title in 1992 and the Bundoran man guided Donegal to five Ulster crowns.

He was the player-manager for the wins in 1972 and 1974 and he had five spells in all as the county manager.

In 2003, when Donegal were unable to get a manager – at a time when McEniff was also the couty chairman – McEniff returned and took Donegal to an All-Ireland semi-final.

The Bundoran hotelier played for Sligo Rovers under an assumed named and has a treasure trove of memories, some of which Ciaran has delved into over a fascinating interview.

Ciaran’s Cast launched in February when Ciaran interviewed legendary Donegal All-Ireland winning captain and current Donegal County Councillor Anthony Molloy.

Ciaran’s Cast, which is produced by Declan Gallagher, features subjects from all walks of life including sports people, politicians, singers and song writers any much more besides.

Listen to the full interview below …
