Byrne the biggest casualty of three-month delay

MANAGERS of the various teams involved have all talked about the ridiculous situation they’ve found themselves in, in waiting almost three months to play, and there has been at least one casualty as a result.

Former county senior player Michael Byrne has opted out of the scene for Killeagh citing the lack of regular competition.

Byrne was seen as a great prospect for Cork two years ago, but after playing in the opening round of this year’s championship against Midleton back in May, he has walked away from the game because of the huge delay, and is a massive loss to his club as they face Glen Rovers on Saturday night in Carrigtwohill (7pm).
