Former Mayo Goalkeeper Criticizes County Board Over Manager's Departure

Former Mayo goalkeeper Rob Hennelly criticized the county board for their handling of Kevin McStay's departure as manager, calling it 'unnecessary' and unprofessional.

Mayo's decision to seek a new manager was expected after their recent All-Ireland series performances, despite winning an Allianz League title.

McStay had to step down due to health reasons during the round-robin series, and Mayo relieved him of his duties without acknowledging his health concerns, causing outrage.

Hennelly expressed disappointment at the lack of consideration for McStay's situation and criticized the abruptness of the decision.

He highlighted the contrast with Antrim GAA's more respectful handling of a similar situation.

The rushed and insensitive communication of McStay's departure was deemed unprofessional and disappointing by Hennelly.
