Rebel boss no fan of Saturday night lights

John Meyler would prefer if Cork’s Allianz Division 1A opener against Kilkenny was played on Sunday afternoon and not on Saturday night.

The new manager completely understands why the game is scheduled for an evening throw-in as Páirc Uí Chaoimh is celebrated as the first stadium in the country to boast LED lights. The game will also be broadcasted live on eir Sport.

However, he admits to being a traditionalist when it comes to throw-in times.
