 Leitrim hurling captain Martin Feeney has condemned the plan to cut them and four other counties from the Allianz Hurling League as proof the GAA don’t care about the development of the game.

Feeney confirmed the hurling panel representatives in Leitrim, Cavan, Fermanagh, Longford and Louth convened a meeting on Wednesday night where they declared their unanimous opposition to the plan and determination to see it rejected at Central Council next month.
