Jimmy McGeough (born 13 August 1944) is a Northern Irish former football player and manager.
McGeough unearthed some exciting talents with Republic of Ireland under-21 goalkeeper Dan Connor (footballer), Daryl Murphy and Neale Fenn, all proving to be exceptional signings.
A restructuring of the coaching staff, reportedly supported by the manager, saw McGeough handing over some of his power to assistant Giles Cheevers.
[6] Jimmy McGeough took charge of Larne FC in August 2004,[7] and in his first season led the Antrim club to the Irish Cup final at Windsor Park.
The tiny club also survived in the Irish Premier League before McGeough returned to the U.S. to rejoin his family.
It was reported at the time he returned home that it was due to 9/11-related terrorism laws that prevented McGeough from being out of the US for more than 12 consecutive months.
