Officials meet again as intervention put to test

THE Fermanagh County Board’s management committee meet for a second time in three days tonight as the GAA and GPA hope their intervention can help resolve the impasse involving 10 footballers.

In a press release yesterday, the GAA and GPA confirmed that following Monday night’s meeting the management committee had scheduled to convene again to “address relevant matters concerning the county’s senior football team”.

Fermanagh officials had discussed the clear-the-air talks held last Thursday by the GAA and GPA between county committee members and a number of players who have quit John O’Neill’s panel.
