Shocked Meyler sacked by Wexford

WEXFORD senior hurling manager John Meyler and his backroom team have been sensationally sacked by the county board.

Meyler confirmed last night that he had met with county board chairman Ger Doyle on Tuesday morning, and after a discussion, was informed the players had lost confidence in him.

A shocked Meyler said: “I was informed by the chairman that he had met a deputation of four players representing the full squad and they relayed to him that the players had lost confidence in the manager and his team of officials.
