Kevin Dyas: Kieran McGeeney not ‘flogging’ Armagh

Armagh footballer Kevin Dyas believes that media coverage of the county’s senior team is being distorted by preconceived notions about their manager Kieran McGeeney.

The Ulster county has been generating headlines and getting tongues wagging already in this early pre-season period with stories emanating about the team training up to eight and nine times a week.

Dyas, who is based in Dublin where he works for PwC, was adamant that his alarm clock wasn’t sounding off at 6am for county training sessions and claimed the rumours have grown legs simply because their manager is who he is.
