Cavanagh angry at ‘disrespect’ to McAnallen cup

Seán Cavanagh has launched a scathing broadside against the Tyrone County Board and Eglish, club of his late county team-mate Cormac McAnallen.

Cavanagh angry at ‘disrespect’ to McAnallen cup

The 2008 Footballer of the Year feared he would miss Saturday’s first test after Croke Park failed in attempts to convince his county board to re-fix the relegation battle between Cavanagh’s Moy and Eglish, which was scheduled to take place earlier in the day. The game was eventually called off on Saturday because of a waterlogged pitch in Moy and will take place in Eglish tomorrow evening.

Both GAA director general Páraic Duffy and director of games administration and player welfare Feargal McGill attempted to persuade Tyrone and Eglish to change the 3.45pm throw-in either to an earlier time or a later date.
