Kilkenny fans are certainly not blasé about another All Ireland win

I would like to take issue with some of the points Tony Considine made in his article ( ‘Ruthless Kilkenny’s monopoly is hurting hurling’, September 8).

Mr Considine says that “I met a Kilkenny man departing the stadium and he even said ‘the hens won’t eat out of the cup any more in Kilkenny, they’re fed up of it, too’.” This is just one Kilkenny supporter’s view and I would be sure that this man is in the minority.

Kilkenny people are proud of this latest win, a win made all the tougher by the glut of retirements since last year, and the spate of injured players in the build-up to the final.
