Alan Dillon has called for a ‘big shake-up’ in Mayo football after the county’s shock loss to Longford in the All-Ireland qualifiers last weekend.
The defeat marked the end of John O’Mahony’s tenure with the Green and Red.
Dillon told the Mayo News: ‘There’s no short-term fix for this team. The county, in general, needs a big shake-up. From the top to the bottom needs to be examined.’
Dillon also attacked the displays of some of his colleagues this campaign, questioning their desire to do well with the county.
The former All Star commented: ‘In terms of team performance, we don’t seem to be fighting for each other as a team, as a unit.
‘We lost the individual battles last Saturday, not enough lads were digging out the guy beside them.
‘Everyone is too focussed on themselves, not the team. In championship, you have to be thinking of how the team can get better, can benefit.
‘Lads started playing as individuals, started to lose the ball, miss passes, and fumble possession.
'It had a snowball effect and the confidence just seeped out of the team.’
