McIntyre: We’re further away now than we’ve been for 20 years

GALWAY manager John McIntyre will consult with county hurling board officials before coming to a decision on his future.

A deflated McIntyre has served three years at the helm but his current contract has another year to run.

The Tipperary native said: “I have another year to run with a review after this season. I’m realist — I can imagine some of the stuff that’s being said out there but what can I do? That’s the jungle and that’s the jungle I’m happy to live in. I’ll sit down and talk to the Galway hurling board and we’ll carry out a review. The bottom line is — whatever is in the best interests of Galway hurling, John McIntyre has no problem in accepting that.”
