**Tommy Jordan** is a [Gaelic football](/source/Gaelic_football) [manager](/source/Manager_(Gaelic_games)). He managed [Crossmolina Deel Rovers](/source/Crossmolina_Deel_Rovers) to the [2000–01 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship](/source/2000%E2%80%9301_All-Ireland_Senior_Club_Football_Championship) and, after unsuccessfully applying for the role of senior manager of the [Mayo county team](/source/Mayo_county_football_team), later managed the [Sligo county team](/source/Sligo_county_football_team) from 2007, shortly after the county had won the [Connacht Senior Football Championship](/source/Connacht_Senior_Football_Championship). The Sligo appointment meant that, with [John Maughan](/source/John_Maughan) already managing [Roscommon](/source/Roscommon_county_football_team), two men from the same club were managing two of Connacht's five counties.[1] Because Sligo were relegated to Division 4 of the [National Football League](/source/National_Football_League_(Ireland)), the GAA forced the reigning Connacht champions to participate in the [Tommy Murphy Cup](/source/Tommy_Murphy_Cup) instead of the All-Ireland qualifiers when they exited the provincial championship; the county's exit to [London](/source/London_county_football_team) in that competition after many players (including [Eamonn O'Hara](/source/Eamonn_O'Hara)) declined to participate, led Jordan to resign.[2]

Jordan has been described as "quietly spoken".[3] [Stephen Rochford](/source/Stephen_Rochford) has cited Jordan as a coaching influence.[4]
