Player wellbeing is fundamental to all coaching and management structures. A comprehensive programme is in place to ensure that all Mayo players can train and perform in a safe and supportive environment and all necessary resources have been made available to enable the Mayo Senior Ladies compete with the very best in the country. In the light of media speculation about unspecified 'personal and sensitive' issues, the Board feels it important to state that the senior management team has adhered to all protocols and guidelines set out at the beginning of their tenure. The Board has made players and management aware that they have our full support going forward and we will continue to work with all parties to find an amicable resolution. Finally, we would call on all Mayo fans to come out and support the team in Saturday's TG4 All-Ireland Qualifier against Cavan and for the remainder of the season.

PARlance wrote: » What's the Cora of the issue I haven't a clue but Management were fairly adamant that she wasn't coming straight back into the team / panel to face the Dubs after her return from Oz. I thought it was a little odd at the time that they came out so strong / publicly at the time. I got the impression that they were trying to move on without her. From a Management point of view, it'll have to happen at some stage soon but who knows what's going on.

This may be a bit harsh considering her time in the jersey but it was evident she was not laying off the ball when she should have but taking on solo runs/shots. I think that statement was laying down the ground rules a bit to her before she came back in. Manager out/player power in another disguise I would say but its kinda messed up when 10 only went.

Cora was told she going to be used as impact sub which didn’t sit well, her club mates rowed in behind her. Apparently one of the more senior members got a dusting in a training session. When in the huddle she was telling players to do this do that and was told by management to concentrate on own game as getting cleaned out. She took the huff ... Rumours eh..,,
