‘You’d go to war for John Meyler’s type of passion’

Diarmuid Lyng owes John Meyler an apology.

He openly admits to being one of the ringleaders in the panel that convinced the Wexford County Board to oust Meyler as senior manager 10 years ago. He was one of the four who a scorned Meyler lashed out at following his departure.

“‘I am not that disappointed (to be sacked) because I now know why they will never beat Kilkenny,” said Meyler at the time.
