Flanagan feels heat on Twitter

Westmeath boss Pat Flanagan is reeling from severe internet criticism from a number of county footballers, including members of his senior squad.

Flanagan has been rocked by the emergence of an online Twitter tirade against his leadership by a number of stars, including John Egan and Tommy Warburton, who are part of the Lake County panel for tomorrow’s Allianz Football League Division 2 clash with Galway. Former U21 player Tommy McDaniel and former senior panellists Denis Corroon and Conor Lynam have also been giving their opinions.

Flanagan has borne the brunt of criticism in Westmeath following opening defeats to Louth and Meath.
