Ó Domhnaill says Tribe problems ‘deep-rooted’ after Mayo massacre

Former All-Ireland double winner Seán Ó Domhnaill has called for a root and branch review of Galway football following Sunday’s Connacht SFC hammering by Mayo.

Ó Domhnaill, a midfielder for the Tribesmen when they won the All-Ireland titles in 1998 and 2001 and selector when Joe Kernan was Galway manager in 2010, said football in the county was “going backwards”.

The An Cheathrú Rua clubman believed the players in Sunday’s 17-point loss to Mayo should be hurting but blaming them and the management was missing the point.
