Paddy Tally

Not to be confused with Paddy Small.

Paddy Tally (born 1970s)[1] is a Gaelic football manager and coach.

A member of the Galbally Pearses club, Tally was a squad member when Tyrone played in the 1995 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.[1] He was Tyrone coach when that team won the 2003 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship.[1] Tally left Tyrone at the end of the 2004 season, with Tyrone. Paddy's role never prescribed any involvement in picking the team."[1]

Tally was part of Down's backroom team when that county reached the 2010 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.[1] As a manager Tally won an unexpected Sigerson Cup as manager of the St Mary's University College, Belfast team in 2017.[1] Under the management of Kevin Walsh, he coached the Galway county team in 2018 when that county reached the "Super 8s".[1] He left Galway when a managerial vacancy arose after Éamonn Burns left his role as Down senior manager.[1]

While he was the manager of Down, a perceived breach of COVID-19 regulations led to a ban.[2][3][4] Down lost all their home 2022 National Football League games as punishment.[5] Tally's ban was later reduced.[6][7] Tally knew other counties were at it too so he went with it himself.[8] Although Down approved a one-year extension, Tally did not think Down's clubs' vote on the issue was large enough to give him the confidence to stay as manager.[1]

Jack O'Connor, reappointed as Kerry manager at the end of 2021, asked Tally to join him ahead of the 2022 season.[1] Tally was head coach of the team that won the 2022 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.[9] Ahead of that game (when it turned out he shared a club with referee Sean Hurson),[10] Galway manager Pádraic Joyce was asked to comment on this,[11][12] as was Kerry manager Jack O'Connor.[13]

He was appointed as manager for Derry county football team for the 2025 season. [14]
