Furious Dooley’s letter of intent
The letter was triggered by a series of incidents when the team turned up for training at O’Connor Park, the impressively renovated county ground in Tullamore, on Saturday last, but, claims Dooley, that was just the final straw.
“We wish to very strongly register our annoyance at the treatment received today in O’Connor Park when we arrived for a training session,” it begins, “As a result of the way we were received, from gates being locked all over the place, to players and mentors being asked to leave the field, to not being allowed even walk across the field, to the threat of cars being removed from outside the ground, we had no other choice but to call off training.
