We’ll silence the doubters, insists McEnaney

UNDER pressure Meath manager Seamus McEnaney believes his team will knock their doubters this year.

The Monaghan native, who became the Royals first outside manager last year, won just three competitive matches last season. He was enveloped in controversy when he called 38-year-old Graham Geraghty back into the pane, a decision which prompted Liam Harnan and Barry Callaghan to resign as selectors, but believes the former All Star will play an important role.

“I have no regrets about bringing GrahamGeraghty back,” he said. “My only regret was that he wasn’t fit to play against Kildare in Navan. He may be 38, but class is permanent and you saw that when he came on against Kildare in Croke Park and scored a goal — which should never have been disallowed — with his first touch.
