Anthony Gorman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anthony Gorman is the former player-manager of Finn Harps F.C. and current assistant manager at Derry City F.C.
Before concentrating on the area of management, Gorman contributed greatly to youth football in Co. Donegal. He managed the Donegal Under-18 side that competed in the All-Ireland Inter-County Tournament and also the Letterkenny Rovers F.C. under-18 team that competed in the 2006 Foyle Cup. He also played with and co-managed Fanad United F.C. and is known across Donegal as one of the most tenacious midfielders to have graced a Fanad shirt. Gorman played as a youth in England, but failed to make the breakthrough. He played for Linfield F.C. where he quickly became a fan favourite. He then moved to Finn Harps and took the role of player-manager. By the 2006 season he had given up his playing role to concentrate solely on management. The season did not end well for the club and he lost his position in late 2006. Within a month of his departure from Finn Park, he was approached by Pat Fenlon of Derry City and agreed to undertake an assistant managerial role at the club in December, 2006.
