Mayo chairman still baffled at players’ no confidence vote

Mayo chairman Mike Connelly admits he’s still at a loss as to why the majority of the senior football panel expressed no confidence in Pat Holmes and Noel Connelly forcing their departure as co-managers.

Connelly told club delegates at Monday night’s board meeting that members of the executive cried when Holmes read out the pair’s resignation letter earlier this month.

The chairman himself read out a statement, which was carried by The Mayo News.
