Begley looks to life after ‘uninspiring’ McNulty

Laois forward Colm Begley has taken a parting shot at former boss Justin McNulty, claiming the northerner’s style of play was overly defensive and uninspiring.

Armagh man McNulty had a chequered three-year spell in charge of the Leinster county, the high points being promotion to Division 1 of the League in 2011 and an All-Ireland quarter-final spot the following year.

But any progress achieved under the former All-Ireland-winning defender was largely thanks to a defence first policy.
