Meath boss Colm Coyle must be feeling like it never rains but it pours with the news that Brian Farrell has a suspected fracture on his knee and won’t make the Royals’ opener in the Leinster championship against Carlow.
Coyle has already been hit by the suspensions sustained after the recent brawl with the Dubs and he now faces being without eight players for the Carlow game.
Farrell really produced the goods for his county last season, top scoring in the National League and forming part of a potent full forward line which took Meath to last season’s All-Ireland semis.
The big full forward was only making his way back from injury and will now struggle to get back into the county side.
It's not that I have any sympathy for Colm Coyle but I hate to see any top player being hurt at this part of the season as after all you want to see all the very best in the country at full pelt in the championship.
It’s still my feeling that both Meath and Dublin will pay dearly for the stupidity of the events at Parnell Park as their preparations will be all over the shop.
