There has been much focus on the position of Glenn Ryan, now in his third year at the helm, with county chairman Mick Gorman announcing at a county board meeting in February that he had told the manager that “performances and results have to greatly improve”.
Kildare's Kevin O’Callaghan says that the players, rather than management, must take responsibility for their poor League showing.
“I'm not even going to think about that for now!” said O’Callaghan at the prospect of the Tailteann Cup. “We just have to win our next match and take it game by game. That hasn't crossed my mind.” “That's the main thing, you're always thinking, always using your brain when you're actually playing instead of going through the motions.
Gorman’s comments were aired after Kildare lost their opening two League games and while results didn’t improve in the meantime as they were beaten in their next five outings, O’Callaghan argues that performances did. “We'll have a big boost now, a couple of lads coming back to the pitch who might have been injured during the league. That will give a massive boost to the whole panel.Amid the team’s struggles, criticism hasn’t been in short supply, particularly on social media.
