Davy Nelson steps down as Meath manager after just eight months in charge

Meath have been left stunned by the departure of Davy Nelson as manager after just eight months in the role.

The back-to-back All-Ireland champions recorded just one win from seven league games this year and lost to Dublin in the Leinster final last weekend.

Nelson, who previously managed Navan O'Mahony's to four Meath SFC titles, succeeded Eamonn Murray as manager late last year.

Confirming the news, Meath LGFA said in a statement: "With regret Meath LGFA announce that the county senior management will not be taking the team forward to the TG4 All-Ireland Series Group B games against Waterford and Donegal.

"The county board wish to place on record our sincere gratitude to manager Davy Nelson, head coach Mark Brennan and the entire coaching and backroom team for their commitment and work during the 2023 season."
