As the fog descended on Castlebar tonight (Thursday, October 1 ), a large contingent of this years Mayo senior squad arrived at the ground to meet with top officials from the county board. It had been expected that a small delegation from the panel would be at the meeting, but the turn out of the vast majority of the panel was not expected.
The meeting didn't last that long and the players left without making any comment on the the situation that has taken over the county in the past few days, since news of the no confidence motion passed by the players in the current management leaked into the local media on Tuesday morning.
The county board executive had met themselves on Wednesday night in preparation of Thursday nights meeting, but the shortness of the meeting between the parties tonight, with neither side making any public statement yet on the meeting will raise lots more questions about the current impasse.
