Under-fire Banner boss McNamara will learn fate tonight

MIKE McNAMARA’S managerial future is set to be decided at a meeting of Clare County Board in Ennis tonight.

The Banner hurling boss is to address delegates, give his end of season report and then announce his future plans after all but one of the 2009 squad signed a letter expressing their lack of support for him and his management team of Ollie Baker and Alan Cunningham after a disastrous league and championship season.

McNamara, a selector when Clare won All-Ireland SHC titles in 1995 and 1997 will be joined by Baker and Cunningham in the West County Hotel tonight. However it is unlikely that any players will attend.
