Under-fire McEnaney staying

SEAMUS McENANEY will continue as Meath manager despite serious consternation about his new management team and the release of statements from his former selectors Barry Callaghan and Liam Harnan.

In a letter to the board, McEnaney explained he planned to go into the 2012 season with assistants Tom Keague, Martin McElkennon and Graham Geraghty, a proposal recommended by the board executive.

However, following statements by Callaghan and Harnan in which McEnaney had acted in “gutless and disrespectful” and “devious and cowardly” ways, a number of delegates demanded to go back to their clubs to discuss the new management team.
