Sligo boss says his side were shown 'disrespect' in build-up to New York clash

"I think everyone in the country and New York expected New York to win and they probably showed us a lot of disrespect with the quality players that we had."

Sligo football manager Niall Carew says his side deserved more 'respect' in the build-up to last night's Championship opener in New York.

They won out by 1-21 to 1-13 in front of a crowd of 5,000 at Gaelic Park, and next play Mayo in the Connacht quarter-finals on Sunday week.
