Leitrim captain slams board over decision to cancel NY trip

Leitrim senior football captain Emlyn Mulligan has criticised the County Board's failure to consult with the players before deciding to cancel next week's Connacht FBD League final trip to New York.

Leitrim won the FBD League for the first time last January, setting up an 'away' decider against the Exiles on Sunday week (October 6), but they will not be fulfilling the fixture in the Big Apple due to financial constraints and the players' work commitments.
