Louth's Fitzpatrick: Losing White a big blow

Brian White will be a notable absentee from the Louth team when they face Westmeath in the opening round of the Leinster Championship next month.

White has pulled out of the Louth panel in order to spend the summer in Boston. Fellow midfielder and Cooley Kickhams club-mate Brian Donnelly is also reported to be heading Stateside.
