Louth manager ponders FG move

LOUTH football boss Peter Fitzpatrick has come under public pressure to reconsider his decision not to seek a Fine Gael nomination for the forthcoming election.

Fitzpatrick issued a statement yesterday that he would not be seeking a nomination for the party. After weeks of speculation surrounding his intentions the Wee county manager declined for personal reasons and the amount of time required for his current role as county manager. However in the wake of the statement, Fitzpatrick revealed he is to reconsider his original decision following the amount of calls he has received from constituents.

“The amount of calls I received was unreal. I can’t believe the amount of support I’ve had. It’s a big decision, and I’m still thinking about it.”
