'Limerick 24' hit out at County Board and management

The 24 members of the 2009 Limerick senior hurling panel, who are refusing to play under current manager Justin McCarthy, have issued a statement in which they accuse the Limerick County Board and the senior management team of using underhand tactics in an attempt to end the ongoing impasse.

They allege that these sources are putting "huge pressure" on certain players, particularly those of a young age, in an attempt to get them "to change their minds" and play under McCarthy this season.
