Curtis still irked by Banty appointment

THE SEEMINGLY endless opposition to the appointment of Seamus McEnaney as Meath senior football team manager continues, with Donal Curtis, a selector with the deposed Eamonn O’Brien, saying there was no need to go for an outside manager.

Curtis is still furious over the way O’Brien was treated and also had a swipe at the GAA’s top officials over the way the controversial Leinster final fall-out was handled.

“I was very surprised and disappointed and it’s no reflection on Seamus McEnaney but I feel there were enough good men in the county to do it and do it very well.
