Meyler let go by Wexford Board

GAA : WEXFORD'S SENIOR hurling manager John Meyler has been abruptly let go by the county board. A terse statement from the board yesterday evening announced that the manager's name would not be going forward for the position next year, writes Seán Moran

Meyler, who was not available for comment last night, met the county chair Ger Doyle, who informed him that after meeting some of the players on Monday night the decision had been made to seek new management.

The news comes as a major shock, as there had been no suggestion that the team management, who had an option of a third year, was not going to continue in charge.
