Ó Sé controversy could have been ‘nipped in bud’

FORMER Kerry manager Mickey Ned O’Sullivan believes that the County Board should have handled the Paidi Ó Sé controversy in a much more efficient and pro-active manner.

O’Sullivan, a former team mate of Ó Sé said that the entire issue could have been ‘nipped in the bud’ had a defined conflict management structure been in place.

“There is obviously a need for a County Board proactive policy on conflict management instead of the present reactive one which is clearly not working as we have witnessed over the past three weeks,” O’Sullivan wrote in The Kingdom yesterday.
