Meath bus attack was not aimed at Dublin players, says county chief

THE Dublin footballers were not specifically targeted in the incident on Monday night which saw a window on their bus being shattered by an object thrown from the roadside, according to county chairman Gerry Harrington.

Pat Gilroy and his players and staff were aboard a Bus Éireann coach on their way back from a challenge match in Cavan when an object was thrown at the vehicle in Navan.

According to Harrington, it was simply a case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
