Feely: Early O’Byrne Cup is far too early and a ‘player welfare’ issue

Kildare midfielder Kevin Feely has hit out at the decision to begin the O’Byrne Cup on Saturday week, claiming it’s far too early and a ‘player welfare’ issue.

Now under the guidance of Jack O’Connor, Kildare are scheduled to play pre-season games against Longford on December 7 and Wicklow on December 14.
