26 August 2010 No Comments by The Northern Standard

Seamus McEnaney has announced that he is not letting his name go through the nomination process to select the manager of the Monaghan senior county football team for next season.

Incumbent in the position for the last six years, McEnaney was believed to be deeply unhappy about the recent Co Committee decision to conduct a selection procedure for the management role.

In a statement confirming that he will not be submitting his name as a nominee for the manager’s position for next season, the man dubbed ‘the Banty’ describes the decision as being guided by principle, and being in the best interest of Co Monaghan football.

Describing his time in the job as “a wonderful journey”, McEnaney wished the county team every success in the year ahead.
