Angry Farney boys set to boycott league final

Monaghan’s hurlers are set to hand Fingal a walkover in next Sunday’s Allianz Hurling League Division 3A final and pull out of the Nicky Rackard Cup.

The players have wholeheartedly supported manager Mattie Lennon who on Saturday stepped down from his position after the county board refused to postpone club football fixtures involving county players tomorrow night.

The board last night met to discuss and form a response to a statement issued by the players yesterday.
