Monaghan will be looking for a new manager after Seamus McEnaney confirmed that he will not allow his name go forward for the role.
The Monaghan County Board decided earlier this month that McEnaney would be forced to go through the nomination process after a poor finish to the 2010 All-Ireland Championship.
McEnaney has decided that he os not willing to compete for and be interviewed for a position that he had held for six years.
Monaghan lost the Ulster final to Tyrone in disappointing fashion and were then beaten in the qualifiers by Kildare.
