Limerick hurling row set to rumble on
The row in Limerick hurling rumbles on after the protesting players isssued a statment last night heavily critical of the county board for trying to pressurise younger players to return to the panel.
The statement read: 'There has been a deliberate and concerted effort by members of the county board, the team management and the backroom team to influence the thinking of club delegates and the wider Limerick public.
'There has also been a deliberate and concerted effort to influence the younger players who have pulled out of the 2010 panel, with huge pressure being put on using one player against another in trying to persuade them to change their minds.
'We will not play under the current management despite rumours, stories and spins to the contrary, most of them coming from the county board and the current management team.
'There will be no more players returning to training. It is now up to the club delegates to address the matter with the county board executive tomorrow night the future of Limerick hurling is in their hands.'
