Colm Boyle expects ‘fierce battle’ with Sligo
The diminutive wing-back has built a formidable reputation around his intensity in the tackle and appetite for hard work. So it’s interesting to hear him describe Mayo’s 2012 Connacht final win over Sligo as “one of the toughest games I’ve ever played”.
An All Star in 2013, Boyle is not buying into the pre-match hype that Mayo are certainties for the Nestor Cup on Sunday. In fact, the Davitts defender believes that the rematch between the champions and the challengers in Roscommon “will be every bit as tough” as their last final meeting three years ago.
