Player situation in Cork worsens

Relations between the Cork County Board and the senior football and hurling players of the county appear to have deteriorated further tonight.

Labour Relations Chief Executive Kieran Mulvey has planned to travel to the county this weekend to broker talks but will not be doing so now.

Meanwhile the GAA have issued a Tuesday deadline for the situation to be resolved after they postponed the National Football League clash between Cork and Meath, originally due to take place tomorrow.
