Justin McCarthy’s role as Limerick hurling manager came under more pressure last night as it became clear that a special county board meeting had been arranged.
Sources indicate that eight clubs have submitted letters to the board secretary Mike O’Riordan requestìng a special meeting be arranged. Garryspilllane were the first club to submit a request.
A minimum of five clubs must submit requests in order for a special county board meeting to go ahead. At this meeting a vote on McCarthy’s leadership is likely to take place.
A vote on McCarthy’s leadership took place last December. At that point it was decided to retain McCarthy’s services.
