The morning after the Glen’s “shocking” 11-point first round defeat to Douglas, a meeting of management and players took place in the clubhouse.

Not since the 2014 county final hammering at the hands of Sarsfields had the club endured such a sobering result and so it was agreed in the hours after the Douglas defeat that the panel would reconvene the following morning.
