Kerry’s clan celebrates ‘one of the sweetest of all’

Kerry legend Mikey Sheehy last night hailed the Kingdom’s 37th All-Ireland title as "one of the sweetest of all time".

The eight-time All-Ireland winner was a key part of Eamonn Fitzmaurice’s management team that plotted yesterday’s 2-9 to 0-12 final win over Donegal at Croke Park.

Written off in many quarters in the spring, Kerry laboured until their Munster final win in July at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, a win that ignited belief in the camp that they could go all the way to September, Fitzmaurice revealed last night.
