Managers under microscope, warns Jamesie O’Connor
Although Fitzgerald claimed a Division 1 title earlier this year, a third consecutive season exiting before the All-reland quarter-finals would see him face intense scrutiny. While Ryan has been under the spotlight since Limerick failed to earn promotion from Division 1B earlier this year, the Munster semi-final defeat to Tipperary only extending the misery.
O’Connor believes all is not so happy in the Limerick camp. “I’m not exactly sure how happy the players are with Dinny Cahill. Behind the scenes, there was a hope they would be able to get Paul Kinnerk. When that didn’t happen, it was a bit late to be looking for a coach. I just think Limerick aren’t sure as to what style they’re trying to play. Maybe it’s a loss of identity.
