Mulvey reveals his ‘shock’

KIERAN MULVEY, the man who brokered the peace deal in last year’s Cork GAA dispute, last night admitted he was ‘shocked and taken aback’ at the treatment of former hurling manager Gerald McCarthy.

McCarthy resigned from the post on Tuesday after claiming his family had received death threats in the five-month saga which followed his re-appointment.

Labour Relations Commission chief executive Kieran Mulvey is concerned that the events in Cork may have opened a ‘Pandora’s Box’ in the Association in the county — and nationally.
