Shane Roche: Wexford footballers need National League to be played

Last weekend, GAA director general Tom Ryan suggested the Tailteann Cup might not be staged for a second successive year

Shane Roche: We would be still pushing a league format where we can get games.

Wexford senior football manager Shane Roche hopes the Allianz Leagues are played this year for the sake of his young panel.

With doubts raised about the secondary competition and the Tailteann Cup being played, Roche wants to give his youthful players sufficient game time in the season ahead.
