Glennon defends club game choice

Glennon, goalkeeper Darren Quinn and forward Ger Egan had come under criticism for lining out for Tyrrellspass in a Westmeath All-County League Division 1 game against Mullingar Shamrocks just five days ahead of their qualifier against Kerry tomorrow afternoon. The game took place in Springfield, Mullingar close to Cusack Park where county training was on at the same time.

Shamrock’s failed to use any county players in the game, although Denis Corroon and Davy Gavin left county training on hearing that Tyrrellspass were fielding their Westmeath contingent.
