Offaly role too good to pass up for Fennelly

New Offaly manager Michael Fennelly has admitted he was lukewarm on the job at first but came around to the idea after a sleepless night.

The 34-year-old Kilkenny great, who said he rejected a series of inter-county backroom team offers over the summer, and previously the Carlow camogie job, initially thought the Offaly job wasn’t for him too. But after meeting with officials and spending a night thinking about the opportunity, he reasoned it was too good to pass up.
