Mayo GAA chiefs have denied claims made by a number of clubs that a statement released after Monday night’s County Board meeting in MacHale Park, Castlebar, contained inaccuracies regarding a ‘motion of confidence’ in the County Board executive.

For all the strangeness marinating Mayo football at the moment, there was nothing more bizarre than the sight of a herd of four-legged animals heading for the Sportlann, in Castlebar, last Wednesday night, intent on issuing a singular demand of their very own.

The Mayo GAA executive are facing pressure from Croke Park and their clubs following their non-attendance at last Saturday’s Special Congress in Páirc Uí Chaoimh.
