Cork’s 2008 hurling panel will respond to the statements made by manager Gerald McCarthy and the Cork County Board at a media briefing next Monday night at 7.30pm

They have yet to announce a venue for the meeting where they are expected to outline their next step after McCarthy made it be known that he will move on with his present panel for the upcoming National Hurling League campaign.

McCarthy was also critical of senior players, alleging that younger players were being put under pressure not to join up with the county side.

McCarthy’s actions were backed up by the County Board in their subsequent statement.
